AC Drives reduce energy wastage in all phases of operation. Changing production volumes by mechanical means is very inefficient. With AC Drives, this can be achieved by changing the motor speed. Particularly in pump and fan applications, this saves lots of money, because the shaft power is proportional to the cube of the flow rate. AC Drives save energy because the motor does not use more electrical energy than required.

For all applications, ABB offers the most extensive AC drive product range available, ranging from 0.12 Kw to over 5Mw.

Direct Torque Control
Drives within ABB's ACS 600 and ACS 1000 ranges use the revolutionary Direct Torque Control (DTC) motor control platform. DTC give even better energy savings than traditional PWM drives, as well as more accurate speed and torque control across a wider speed range.

At Levern Engineering we can assist with all your AC Drive requirements.
