ABB is a leader in power and automation technologies that enable utility, industry, and transport and infrastructure customers to improve performance while lowering environmental impact. The ABB Group of companies operates in […]
Nearly 70 percent of all industrial electrical energy use goes to powering electric motors. These motors are the workhorses of business, from pumps moving fluids to fans moving air to compressors, conveyors, and every type of machine that depends on rotational force to get its job done. More than 90 percent of industrial motors either […]
When Eaton discontinued drives reach the end of their life cycle, they are either repaired or replaced. Eaton 9000X family of drives includes HVX9000, SVX9000, SLX9000 and SPX9000. Eaton 9000X series drive ratings are rated for either high overload or low overload capacity. Key features of Eaton 9000X series drives are (but not limited to) […]
Variable frequency drive repair is an asset to industrial manufacturing because drive replacement is expensive and prolonged lead times for OEM drive repair is a common problem. Technology has evolved variable frequency drive manufacturers to consistently release new and better drive products for industrial manufacturing. This constant new technology puts the drive manufacturer at an advantage, and the […]

Over the years, Eaton’s innovative portfolio has grown, including solutions from names like Aeroquip-Vickers, B-Line, CEAG, Crouse-Hinds, Cutler-Hammer, Holec, […]
Automatic conveyors are used to transport and sort materials. Automatic VFD conveyor systems are installed as part of a storage or logistics system or may be used between the machining stations of factory plant and equipment. In the case of unit loads, the speeds of individual conveyor sections must be aligned with the flow of material. […]
ABB frequency converter modules are used for electric motor control to reduce energy consumption. ABB frequency converter modules offer plug and play motor control convenience, straight from the box. When you are looking for simplicity and intelligence in a self-contained solution, general purpose ABB frequency converter modules cover your options wisely. Wherever your business needs […]
ABB drives with BacNet for HVAC applications were introduced in 2004. Today ABB’s standard drive is the market’s leading AC drive with native BACnet as standard. Several thousand of these drives have been installed worldwide since their launch. ABB standard drives for HVAC require no plug-in cards or gateways. The drives operate direct on an […]
A VFD (variable frequency drive) controls the speed, torque and direction of an induction motor. A VFD takes fixed motor voltage and AC frequency and converts it to a variable voltage and frequency AC output. In very small VFDs, a single power pack unit may contain the converter and inverter modules. Preventive maintenance VFD programs […]
Variable frequency drives save labor and reduce energy costs while extending the lifespan of equipment for industrial applications. In the following ABB case study, a farm owner began looking tor alternatives to an old irrigation system, which worked by running the water pumps at constant speed, with control than being done by manual opening and closing of valves In […]
