Conserve energy and reduce noise with VFD cabling

May 18, 2015
Using the right cabling for your application can be the key to unlocking energy savings and cutting interference

Ensuring that production lines perform at the highest capacity, void of downtime and quality control issues are big challenges for manufacturers. Subjected to harsh and variable work environments—fluctuating temperatures, pressure and force—production equipment must adjust frequently to outside influences in order to maintain optimal performance, conserve energy and prevent waste. Using variable-frequency drives (VFDs) could be the answer. But using VFDs can create noise and electrical interference that can affect other machinery. Picking the right cabling for you system can overcome this problem.
