Choosing a Variable Frequency Drive or Soft Starter Based on Your Application Need

9/17/2018 | Group Article

When accelerating an AC motor to full speed using a full voltage connection, a large inrush current may be required. Additionally, the torque of the AC motor is mostly uncontrolled and can shock the connected equipment, potentially causing damage. Variable Frequency Drives and Reduced Voltage Soft Starters and can both be used to reduce inrush currents and limit torque; thereby protecting expensive equipment and extending the life of the motor and coupling devices. Choosing between a variable frequency drive and soft starter often depends on the type of application, the mechanical system requirements, and cost.
