CHIFON Brand V/F Control CE Certificated 4kw/5HP 3 Phase VFD Frequency Inverter
Benefits of VFD
The demand for efficient motor controls due to rising energy prices and a trend toward energy efficiency has resulted in a growing demand for variable frequency drives (VFDs). The market for VFDs is expected to increase at a rate of 5.94% (CAGR) in the next three years, so it’s not surprising manufacturers are investing in state-of- the-art VFD technology.
The latest advances in VFD software and hardware tackle common problems original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), system integrators, and manufacturers have been wrestling with for years: enabling teams to do more—faster and easier—with fewer resources.
1. Wireless diagnostics
Wireless diagnostics represent the future of VFDs whether it’s Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or something else entirely. In a typical plant where access to a drive in a closed enclosure may be limited, engineers can connect directly to the system from a distance using the wireless signal built into the drive.
Online software enables engineers to view and diagnose problems without touching the drive or its enclosure.
2. Flexible integration
VFDs with flexible integration allow engineers to solve for the application challenge once and then interface to an upper-level programmable logic controller (PLC) of choice.
For example, say an OEM is selling a given machine to customers both domestically and abroad. Regional trends in PLC preference are not an obstacle for machine integration. The OEM can take a drive with multiple
communication options, solve the machine application once, and pick the option that matches the upper-level controller choice for each customer.
VFDs constructed specifically for flexible integration usually consist of a single basic inverter with control or networking modules that can be selected at will.
3. Modular memory
Gone are the days when technicians would have to go into the keypad to program a replacement VFD. Soon, having to use a PC or even just a USB stick to transfer the configuration to a replacement drive will be a thing of the past.
Today, drives with removable, modular, nonvolatile memory make maintenance quick and easy. They eliminate the need to connect additional hardware. If a piece goes bad, device replacement is as simple as taking the memory module out of the old drive and putting it into a new one.
4. Predictive maintenance
Manufacturers are gathering massive amounts of data from their machinery and manipulating it into business intelligence that drives predictive maintenance.
The Internet of Things (IoT), a global trend in every industry, has had an impact on VFDs by speeding and simplifying the flow of information from machine to technician and back again. As such, manufacturers are making changes to everything from their machines to their information technology (IT) departments to facilitate the collection, analysis, and application of drive data.
From a hardware perspective, teams are moving away from serial and toward Ethernet as the network of choice. Basic IT departments are familiar with Ethernet switches, hubs, and routers, resulting in a more seamless integration when it comes to data transfer.
Complex communication strategies are requiring modern VFDs to report lifetime counters, production rates, downtimes, power output, and more for better real-time decision making.

Torque limitation and control: the "excavator" feature, automatically limits the torque during operation to prevent frequent overcurrent trips. Closed-loop mode can realize torque control.
Product Installation :
FPR500 series VFD need to remove the cover plate to connect the main circuit and the control circuit.The cover plate of the plastic shell can be forcibly pushed out from the hook of the lower cover plate to the inside with a tool.
Frequency converter is usually installed vertically to facilitate air circulation and heat dissipation.Sufficient installation clearance distance shall be set aside around the frequency converter as shown in figure 3 - 1
When multiple frequency converters work, they are usually installed side by side.Where the installation of the upper and lower row is required, the heat of the lower row frequency converter will cause the temperature of the upper row equipment to rise and cause trouble, and measures such as installing heat insulation baffles should be taken.
