ZFeng 900 Series 450Kw-T-G General Vector Variable Frequency Drive

Frequency converters and motors are two core components closely related to modern industrial automation and power transmission systems. Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is a power control device that can regulate the power frequency and voltage of an AC motor, thereby achieving precise control of motor speed and torque. Electric motors are devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and are widely used in various industrial and civilian applications.

The advantages of combining frequency converter and motor

1. Improve system efficiency
   By precise speed and torque control, the system operates at the optimal efficiency point and reduces energy consumption.
2. Extend equipment lifespan
   Soft start and soft stop reduce mechanical impact and equipment wear.
   The protection function of the frequency converter extends the service life of motors and mechanical equipment.
3. Improve production quality
   Stable speed and torque control ensure consistency in product quality.
4. Simplify system design
   The frequency converter has replaced traditional mechanical speed control devices, simplified the system structure, and reduced maintenance costs.

Precautions for the combination of frequency converter and motor

1. Harmonic effects
   Problem: The PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) waveform output by the frequency converter contains a large number of high-order harmonics, which may have an impact on the motor and power grid.
   measures:
   Install an output reactor or sine wave filter at the output end of the frequency converter.
   Using 12 pulse or 18 pulse rectifier frequency converters to reduce harmonic content.
2. Common Mode Voltage
   Problem: The common mode voltage generated by the frequency converter may cause insulation breakdown of the motor winding and electrical corrosion of the bearings.
   measures:
   Use common mode reactors or filters.
   Use a frequency converter with common mode voltage suppression function.
3. Cable Length
   Problem: Long distance cables may cause reflected waves and increase voltage stress at the motor end.
   measures:
   Limit the cable length, generally not exceeding 50 meters (depending on the frequency converter model and motor capacity).
   Install dv/dt filter or sine wave filter at the end of the cable.
4. Grounding
   Requirement: The frequency converter and motor should be reliably grounded to ensure safety and reduce electromagnetic interference.

The frequency converter and motor have a complementary relationship. The frequency converter provides flexible and efficient speed regulation and control methods for motors, improving their performance and application range; The selection and design of motors also need to consider the characteristics of the frequency converter to ensure the stability and reliability of the system.

In practical applications, frequency converters and motors should be selected reasonably based on specific working conditions and requirements, and corresponding measures should be taken to solve problems such as harmonics and common mode voltage, in order to fully leverage the advantages of the combination of frequency converters and motors and achieve energy-saving, efficient, and stable operation.
