VARIABLE SPEED DRIVES for Instrumentation and Control Systems
Dafam Fortuna Hotel, Yogyakarta | 22 – 25 November 2016 | IDR 7,000,000
DESCRIPTION
It is estimated that electrical drives and other rotating equipment consume about 50% of the total electrical energy generated in the world today. Other estimates are that pumps, fans, blowers and compressors consume as much as 65% of this total. A large proportion of these applications are powered by fixed or constant speed drivers whose load demands often fluctuate. This poor match of speed and demand results in considerable wasted energy and significantly increased wear of system components. Variable speed drives technology is a cost effective method to match driver speed to load demands and is an excellent opportunity to reduce operating costs and improve overall efficiencies in your application. This course gives you a fundamental understanding of the installation, operation and troubleshooting of variable speed drives. Typical practical applications of VSDs in process control and materials handling, such as those for pumping, ventilation, conveyers, compressors and hoists are covered in detail. You will learn the basic setup of parameters, control wiring and safety precautions in installing a VSD. The various drive features such as operating modes, braking types, automatic restart and many others will be discussed in detail. You will learn the four basic requirements for a VSD to function properly with emphasis on typical controller faults, their causes and how they can be repaired. The concluding section of the course gives you the fundamental tools in troubleshooting VSDs confidently and effectively. Even though the focus of the course is on the direct application of this technology, you will also gain a thorough understanding of the problems that can be introduced by VSDs such as harmonics, electrostatic discharge and EMC/EMI problems.
