Medium-voltage motors are critical to a facility’s power system. Not only are they expensive, but their failure can have crippling, long-lasting impacts on a plant’s operation. As such, properly ...

FORT WAYNE, IN--(Marketwired - Apr 25, 2017) - Franklin Electric Co., Inc. (NASDAQ: FELE) announces the official release of the new SubMonitor Connect electronic motor protector that provides the ...

Electric drives require effective protection against overloads and short circuits. Both phenomena cause motor disruption and create a risk of damage to the motor. This could lead to a potentially ...

Toshiba has launched two sine-wave pulse width modulated (PWM) drive controllers – TC78B043FNG and TC78B043FTG – for three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors, which can support both surface permanent ...

Selection of replacement motors is usually straightforward if the ratings are equivalent. Sometimes, however, a different type of motor is necessary or desirable. For success in these cases, it is ...

Infineon has used silicon-on-insulator technology to create a 140V three-phase gate driver for motor drives. Called 6ED2742S01Q, it is designed to drive six external n-channel mosfets using ...

A motor control IC is a convenient way to implement custom motor drive algorithms such as the single-phase induction motor (SPIM) control. A generalized control algorithm, implemented and tested in an ...

Compressor overheating is one of the industry's most serious field problems today. Compressor overheating is usually caused by high compression ratios. High compression ratios can be caused by a ...

One of the hidden complications of upgrading grain drying and handling systems is providing enough electricity to power the new larger electric motors. Electric motors that are larger than 15 hp ...
