Answer / vasu
VFD are used to make the motor to run in desired speed. By
variying the input supply frequency we can vary the speed of
the motor. some other types are VVFD - Variable voltage and
frequency drive, Vector drive.

Answer / rawjaw
We know a relation speed
say,N=120f/p,speed directly
proportional to freq.In some
applications large motors
used to drive a heavy load,we
start such motors from 0 rpm
& provides initial torque(say
160%) in order to achieve
energy efficient.ok..

Answer / hitesh kareliya
VFD Means Variable Frequency Drive,So that means we
controll the Pump's RPM via VFD in desired frequency.

Answer / amit shetkar
see firstly vfd is basically used mainly for 2 purpose i.e to
protect electrical motors & for speed control.
& now about that star delta arrangement it used before motor
in that star connection is used to give smooth start to motor
& when motor achieve it's speed so to maintain that speed
delta connection is used

Answer / vinay singh
When the elements are connected in neither series nor parallel
to reduce network star delta arrangement is used.

what is skin thermocouple?
Where are use of pressure,level,flow switches?and what is input and output
types of transformer.. 1ph 3ph or core shell?
Hi friends, from Aug 4th onwards iam getting spikes for analog inputs in our DCS for a period of 800ms. I throughly checked every thing, finally i found that the DI, DO's from MCC panels shields are terminated in the Signal Earth where Analog Input signals shields are terminated. Is there any problem with this type of termination?. i checked the induction voltage from MCC and getting around 25VAC, please suggest me in this concern. Our plant is 8months old only. DCS is Siemens Make Simatic PCS7, and the transmitters are Yokogawa make.
Can we use a 10000 Lph Flow Transmitter in 100 LPH flow line to get 20mA O/P by adjusting SPAN ?
Vibration probe working principle?
If a control valve is hunting means means if we are giving 50% to the cv, the cv will open at 51% then slowly slwoly it will reaches 49% , then it will reaches again 50%, this type of action occured frequntly.. so what to do for solve this problem. The possible cause is in volume booster or positioner's relay.. positioner is double acting .. and make siemens..sipart.The cv is double acting and mounted for anti surge operation, it having 4 nos. volume booster, one sov, one positioner, etc..?
