Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Variable Frequency Drive?

A variable frequency drive (VFD) is an electronic device that controls electric motor speed by varying the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor.

A VFD adjusts the motor’s speed to match the load requirement, this helps to drastically reduce energy consumption.

Other names for a VFD are variable speed drive, adjustable speed drive, adjustable frequency drive, AC drive, and inverter.

Why is the Clean Power VFD the right choice?

SmartD’s Clean Power variable frequency drive generates pure-sine electrical signals in a package half the size that is twice as efficient.

Forget messy cables and bulky filters. Experience Clean Power in a compact footprint.

How much time does the SmartD Clean Power VFD take to set up?

3 cables in, 3 cables out. That's it. Set it up and let it do its thing in under 30 minutes.

Will the SmartD Clean Power VFD work with our existing systems?

Our products are IoT, BMS and SCADA ready.
Ethernet and Modbus connectivity for integration to Cloud, BMS and SCADA systems.

Is the SmartD Clean Power VFD available for purchase?

The SmartD Clean Power VFD will be available for purchase Q3, 2022.
