Variable Speed Drives: Common Applications

Variable speed drives (VSDs) must always be carefully matched to the work that needs to be done. This can be easy when replacing a drive with an identical motor or controller. But other times, when identical replacements are not available, it is necessary to understand the various aspects of VSD applications. In addition, the motor and controller combination, the drive, is frequently integrated into an existing production process or system. This course will examine some of the common applications for VSDs.
