One of the hidden complications of upgrading grain drying and handling systems is providing enough electricity to power the new larger electric motors. Electric motors that are larger than 15 hp ...

There are several reasons to use a three-phase inverter to run a single-phase induction motor, including isolation from variable power grids, reduction of peak currents and elimination of the starting ...

Having both 3-phase and single-phase loads can be challenging when trying to balance the voltages at a facility. It’s possible that during a facilities operation, one phase can be lightly loaded ...

Compressor overheating is one of the industry's most serious field problems today. Compressor overheating is usually caused by high compression ratios. High compression ratios can be caused by a ...

This solid-state thyristor (SCR) switch circuit is perhaps the simplest means of reversing a 3 phase motor. “Static” is a catch-all term that essentially means without moving (mechanical) contacts ...

The MLX81300 is the first member of a family of LIN motor drivers. For positioning applications the MLX81300 can control 3 phase steppers with low noise microstepping, as well as DC motors.

In the real world, it is impossible to balance line-to-line voltages perfectly in a 3-phase circuit. In fact, line voltages typically differ by a few volts or more. But a difference that exceeds 1% ...

The flux-oriented control (FOC) is a commonly used technique for three-phase electric motor control application. Here, the applied voltage pattern is defined using the space vector modulation (SVM) ...

Oriental Motor USA is proud to introduce our new three-phase standard AC motor, the KIIS Series Standard AC Motor, available in 60 W (1/12 HP) and 100 W (1/8 HP) output power. Oriental Motor USA is ...
