Why switch to a VFD?

May 26, 2021 Tagged With: electric bill, electrical services, electrical services page, energy, equipment, savings, Sustainability, variable frequency drive, VFD

Why switch to a VFD? Well, the answers are simple and straightforward.

  1. It saves energy. By using a VFD to ramp up your equipment slowly, you'll reduce the in-rush and avoid peak demand and the costs associated with it.
  2. It grants more speed control. A VFD reduces the motor speed which greatly reduces the amps drawn by the motor, resulting in greater control and lower energy usage.
  3. It proves ROI. Since VFDs have a relatively low upfront expense associated with them and can yield immense energy savings, the return on investment is clear and can be seen in just a matter of months.
  4. It requires low maintenance costs. The cost and time associated with keeping VFDs running in optimal condition are quite low.
  5. It extends equipment life expectancy. By using a VFD on VFD-rated equipment, the life expectancy of your equipment can be extended.
