What are the difference between UPS and VFD..

Answer / siva kumar

UPS is a uninterrupted power supply, where as VFD is a variable frequency drive. VFD is used for controlling speed of the motors according to the below mentioned formula

speed(N)= 120f/p

f= frequency, p= no.of poles

poles are fixed at the design stage of the machine later we can't be modified so speed control is possible only controlling the frequency of the machine.
