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