Managing Eaton VFDs With HVAC Systems
There was a time when putting in and maintaining an HVAC system was a simple process of ducting, routing, and connecting everything to the main production unit as well as confirming the power load was sufficient and wouldn’t pop a fuse box. Today, HVAC systems are a lot more complicated. Between safety and building regulations as well as added technology, maintenance sensors and higher output demands for hotter, longer conditions in general, HVAC systems have to take on a harder demand. And, a lot of times, if the energy management isn’t sufficient, the given HVAC system is going to have problems or fail periodic certification inspections.
To solve the problem of energy management, variable frequency drives or VFDs have been the go-to tool for HVACs for decades. The technology isn’t new, ...
