Customer benefits

Customer benefits

Small electrical cabinet design

Reduced failure risk in field installations by preconfigured plugs and cables

Savings in the cooling of the cabinet

inverters produce heat!

Improved EMC- performance

Higher flexibility to add or change a drive

No screened/ shielded cables necessary

Reduced cable wiring installation work

Easy connection of field sensors/ actors

e.g. many drives in central drive technology compared to decentral drive technology

ENERGY SAVING WITH INVERTER CONTROLLED DRIVESYSTEMS BY NORD

1.

INVERTER INTEGRATED ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION:

INVERTER automatically recognizes a part load situation and adjusts the motor control accordingly to
reduce current consumption (reduction of magnetic field)
Efficiency increase with load < 50% of nominal

full load

partial load

Inverter optimization

ENERGY SAVING WITH INVERTER CONTROLLED DRIVESYSTEMS BY NORD

2.

In BHS there are times with no/low load on conveyors

NORD INVERTERS automatically recognize low load situations and reduce the speed until load
applies, then the speed is automatically adjusted to the required speed (full speed)

Less energy consumption in no load (low speed) mode

Less wear and longer lifetime of drives and mechanic equipment

Full system reliability and performance
