For all their energy savings and control benefits, when VFDs fail, they bring motor-driven industrial operations to a dead stop. To avoid such situations, savvy engineers ensure drive-system ...

A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) regulates the speed of a 3-phase AC electric motor by controlling the frequency and voltage of the power it delivers to the motor. These devices, also known as ...

All common video signal types--composite, RF, s-video, component, SDI, and the various flavors of RGB--are ordinarily run in coaxial cables, or, as the shorthand term goes, "coax." The features of ...

V-Flex cable is designed for variable-frequency drives (VFD). The cables feature both UL and CSA tray-cable ratings, a low-temperature rating of –40°C, and a bend radius that is 5× that of standard ...

Targeting ac-motor-drive applications, the symmetrical VFD (varying-frequency-drive) cables carry power from industrial ac-drive systems to ac motors. A dual-copper-tape shielding provides a ...

The right shielding for substation wire and cable continues to be a critical factor in enabling substations to become smarter, more sophisticated and more reliable. New sensors, distributed computing, ...

In this episode, we connect with Steve Wetzel, a member of IEEE and principal applications engineer with Southwire Company, one of North America's largest wire and cable manufacturers and the sponsor ...

Testing most products for radiated emissions usually requires all I/O and power cables to be attached to the equipment under test (EUT) and spread out in accordance with the specific product standard.
