Selecting the right variable frequency power supply is essential for the proper functioning of the electronic control systems in mechanical equipment. To make the right choice, one must first consider the type of machinery, the load torque characteristics, the speed range, static speed accuracy, starting torque, and the operational environment. These factors will help determine the most suitable control method and protection structure for the variable frequency power supply. Achieving the best cost-performance ratio while meeting the practical needs of the machinery and its intended use is key.
Firstly, it's important to match the variable frequency power supply with the load characteristics. There are numerous types of variable frequency power supplies on the market, each with increasing functionality. While the manufacturing process determines some inherent qualities, the control method plays a significant role in determining the overall performance. Below is a summary of the performance characteristics of different variable frequency power supply control methods in recent years.
In summary, using different control methods for asynchronous motors allows us to achieve varying speed regulation characteristics.
Secondly, the installation environment should dictate the protection structure of the variable frequency power supply. The protection structure must align with the installation environment, taking into account factors like temperature, humidity, dust, pH levels, and corrosive gases. Ensuring long-term, safe, and reliable operation is critical. Most manufacturers offer the following common protection structures for users to choose from:
(1) Open type IP00, which shields the user from live parts inside the variable frequency power supply. Suitable for installations in control panels or electrical rooms, particularly for multiple inverters. However, this requires specific environmental conditions.
(2) Enclosed IP20, IP21, which has a protective cover around the unit. Can be mounted on building walls and is ideal for most indoor settings.
(3) Sealed type IP40, IP42, suited for harsh industrial environments.
(4) Closed type IP54, IP55, featuring dustproof and waterproof structures. Ideal for industrial settings with challenging conditions, including water spray, dust, and corrosive gases.
Thirdly, the load torque characteristics of the machinery should be considered. Production machinery is typically categorized into three types based on load torque characteristics: constant torque loads, constant power loads, and fluid loads.
1. Constant Torque Loads: Here, the load torque (TL) is independent of speed (n). TL remains constant regardless of speed, and load power increases linearly with speed. Examples include conveyor belts, mixers, extruders, and gravity loads like cranes and elevators.
When a variable frequency power supply drives a constant torque load, it requires a large enough output torque and sufficient overload capacity. If running at low speeds for extended periods, the motor’s heat dissipation capability should be evaluated to prevent overheating.
2. Constant Power Loads: In this category, the torque demand is inversely proportional to speed, but the power remains constant. Examples include the main shafts of metal cutting machines, rolling mills, and paper machines.
The constant power nature of the load affects the speed variation range. At lower speeds, mechanical limitations prevent infinite torque increase, converting to constant torque properties. Matching the motor's constant torque and constant power speed regulation ranges with those of the load ensures optimal efficiency and minimizes the required motor and power supply capacities.
3. Fluid Loads: The torque is proportional to the square of the speed, and power is proportional to the cube of the speed. Fans, pumps, and oil pumps are typical examples.
Variable frequency power supply speed regulation controls airflow and flow rates, saving significant energy. However, operating such loads at full power frequency is inefficient due to the cubic relationship between power and speed.
In conclusion, selecting the right variable frequency power supply involves careful consideration of multiple factors. Proper matching with machinery requirements ensures smooth operation and maximizes energy savings.
