Inverters are essential for controlling the frequency of the power supplied to motors, which directly impacts motor speed, torque, and efficiency. By adjusting both the frequency and amplitude of the input voltage, inverters optimize motor performance and energy use.
Understanding Motor Power Supply Frequency
The frequency of a motor's power supply refers to the frequency of the voltage provided to the motor's stator side. Low-voltage motors typically use a 0-380V supply, while high-voltage motors may use 0-3KV, 0-6KV, or even 0-10KV. Inverters modify this frequency and voltage, enabling precise control over motor operation.
Types of Inverters
There are two main types of inverters: AC-AC inverters and AC-DC-AC inverters.
AC-AC Inverter (Direct Inverter)
An AC-AC inverter converts industrial frequency AC into AC with adjustable frequency and voltage. It’s efficient and has strong overload capacity, but the frequency adjustment range is limited to less than half the rated frequency. It’s best for low-speed, large-capacity applications like traction systems. AC-AC inverters are commonly used in large-scale operations such as rolling mills and hoists due to their high efficiency and overload capacity.
AC-DC-AC Inverter (Indirect Inverter)
An AC-DC-AC inverter is the most widely used type today. It first converts industrial AC power into DC power, then inverts it back into AC power with adjustable frequency and voltage. This type provides a wider frequency adjustment range, improving motor performance. AC-DC-AC inverters are widely used in general-purpose applications like HVAC systems, conveyor belts, and pumps.
The inverter circuit is composed of switching devices controlled by modulation signals to convert DC power into three-phase AC with variable frequency and voltage.
Advantages of AC-DC-AC Inverters
AC-DC-AC inverters allow precise frequency and voltage control, improving motor efficiency, energy savings, and extending equipment life. They provide smoother waveforms and a better power factor, reducing the need for additional components like filters.
