Variable Frequency Drives 280 kW
A 280 kW variable frequency drive (VFD) is a high-power AC motor controller for smooth speed regulation of three-phase asynchronous motors rated at 280 kW (supply: 3×380V, nominal output current ~500–535 A). Drives in this class support vector or scalar control, significantly reduce inrush current during start-up, and deliver energy savings of 40–50% on pump and fan installations. See the full range of variable frequency drives in our catalog.
Applications of 280 kW VFDs
Frequency drives rated at 280 kW are a standard choice for the following industrial applications:
- Pumping stations — centrifugal water-supply pumps, sewage lift stations, oil and chemical process pumps;
- HVAC and ventilation — industrial centrifugal fans, exhaust systems, large-building air-handling units;
- Compressors — screw and reciprocating compressors in industrial plants;
- Conveying and lifting equipment — belt conveyors, hoists, overhead and gantry cranes;
- Crushers and mills — equipment in cement, mining, and food processing industries.
For loads with a quadratic torque curve (pumps, fans) models with an overload rating of 120–150% for 60 s are sufficient. For hoisting and process machinery choose drives rated at 150% / 60 s overload or higher.
