Application of VT2 Variable frequency drive in Pharmaceutical manufacturing industry

VT2 frequency inverters will help the factories to reduce the cost of the energy comsumption in Pharmaceutical manufacturing industry

As the covid-19 sweeps the worlds since 2020, More and more factories are producing medical supplies, based on the market request, more of the variable frequency inverters used for the pharmaceutical manufacturering industry to save the cost.

Electric motors in pharmaceutical industry consumes significant amounts of electricity; estimated to be about two-thirds of all usage. Even a simple air conditioning system, costing a few hundred dollars, can be expected to consume many tens of thousands of dollars worth of electricity over its useful lifetime. Variable frequency drives can help to make significant energy savings by controlling the motor speed.

This is particularly true in pharmaceutical industries, where pumps and fans are widely used for liquid and air movement. In these kinds of applications, using variable frequency drive turning down the speed by 20 per cent can translate to a 50 per cent energy saving in a fan, for example. This problem is exacerbated by the fact that motors are often over-specified in such industries, so they can cope with worst case scenarios. Adding a variable frequency drive wouldn't remove this ability to manage in extremes, it will just reduce its cost on a day-to-day basis.

In conclusion, the evidence is clear; VT2 variable frequency drives are one of the lowest risk investments to bring its environmental and economic goals a step closer to fruition. If you are part of a buying team, VT2 variable frequency drives could be a viable solution to provide significant energy savings in many motor applications.
