	Protecting VFD-Driven Motors in AIRPORTS The Push to Make Airports “Green” Spurred on by the promise of energy savings and reduced operating costs, America’s airports are taking a hard look at their equipment and procedures in an e ort to become more “green”.
	Protecting VFD-Driven Motors in FOOD PROCESSING & BAKERIES The Need to Eliminate Unplanned Downtime Food and beverage producers face staggering losses due to spoilage if their equipment goes down. In an effort to eliminate unplanned downtime, many producers are looking for ways to prevent motor failures by protecting bearings from VFD-induced electrical damage.
	Protecting VFD-Driven Motors in HEALTHCARE Facilities Saving Energy is Important... Many hospitals are looking for ways to reduce energy consumption. One of the most promising involves the use of variable frequency drives (VFDs) to control the speed of HVAC motors. In fact, in such applications. VFDs have been shown to reduce energy consumption by 20 to 30%. But, while energy savings are important, they must never jeopardize patient safety.
	Protecting VFD-Driven Motors in HVAC Systems The “Greening” of America’s Buildings The growing “green” movement has led to a flood of new standards including the US Greens Building Councils Building Performance Initiative, the Green Building Initiative, and LEED — all aimed at increasing energy efficiency and sustainability. Challenged to reduce energy consumption and to document savings, America’s facilities managers are installing variable frequency drives (VFDs) in HVAC systems as one of the best ways of achieving such savings.
	Protecting VFD-Driven Motors in MEAT & POULTRY VFDs: Improved Control and Energy Savings By providing precise speed control of motors that run conveyors, pumps, mixers, compressors, and other meat and poultry processing equipment, variable frequency drive (VFDs) enable the fine tuning of food preparation, transfer, and packaging processes. In addition to improving process control, VFDs save energy. In fact, the use of VFDs in HVAC systems has been shown to reduce energy consumption by as much as 20 to 30%.
