Questions and Answers

What is the primary function of the intermediate circuit in a variable speed drive?

  • To control the speed and torque of the alternating current motor
  • To reduce power supply problems in the facility
  • To smooth the uneven, rippled output of the rectifier to near a pure DC output (correct)
  • To convert the fixed AC voltage and frequency input into a variable frequency output

    • What is the advantage of using a variable speed drive in an alternating current motor?

  • It improves process control and reduces energy consumption (correct)
  • It decreases the motor's heating and stress
