A motor branch circuit, including a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) and one or more Motor Protection Circuit Breakers (MPCBs), is a complex system and its performance depends on all components, devices, configuration and their interconnection. This publication explains some considerations for the selection of MPCBs. The information in this paper has been developed through known engineering principles and validated by thorough testing and simulation.

The 2000V UL 1277 Type TC-ER cables are UL rated for direct burial, feature black sunlight- and oil-resistant PVC jackets, and meet all applicable industry standards and specifications for VFD cables.

ISA automation professionals explain key considerations for using variable frequency drives.

The brochure contains new product models, new technical application data, drawings, and photos of Adjustable Speed Drives, Right Angle Gear Drives, and Linear Actuators.

TightDrive variable speed SCR drive attaches directly to permanent magnet DC electric motors and gearmotors to conserve energy while offering tighter speed regulation.

Working with OBG, Ithaca Beer Co. upgraded to a semi-automated brewing process based on the FactoryTalk Craft Brew solution from Rockwell Automation. The pre-configured solution offers control to customize and automate a craft brewhouse. And it is pre-engineered, -programmed, -tested and -validated, significantly reducing commissioning and startup time.
