Medium-voltage motors are critical to a facility’s power system. Not only are they expensive, but their failure can have crippling, long-lasting impacts on a plant’s operation. As such, properly ...

Electric drives require effective protection against overloads and short circuits. Both phenomena cause motor disruption and create a risk of damage to the motor. This could lead to a potentially ...

FORT WAYNE, IN--(Marketwired - Apr 25, 2017) - Franklin Electric Co., Inc. (NASDAQ: FELE) announces the official release of the new SubMonitor Connect electronic motor protector that provides the ...

Infineon has used silicon-on-insulator technology to create a 140V three-phase gate driver for motor drives. Called 6ED2742S01Q, it is designed to drive six external n-channel mosfets using ...

Selection of replacement motors is usually straightforward if the ratings are equivalent. Sometimes, however, a different type of motor is necessary or desirable. For success in these cases, it is ...

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 ...

NEC Electronics’ (distribution: Gleichmann Electronics) two new 3-phase control device families, V850E/IF3 and V850E/IG3, open up all kinds of new application possibilities. Key features of these ...

EPC has introduced an evaluation board implementing a 40Arms (60A peak) three-phase inverter that will run from 30V to 130V. Called EPC91200, it is “suitable for 80 and 110V battery systems commonly ...
