Energy efficiency and cost savings are a major factor when it comes to building management systems and, to help meet these objectives, Sontay has teamed up with drive specialist Invertek to offer two new inverter ranges. Designed to provide effective electrical energy savings in HVAC fan and pump applications, the two, new, easy-to-use ID inverter drives can also be used to enhance efficiency in a variety of process operations.
The new ID-CT (standard inverters) and ID-VT (variable speed) drives feature an innovative, compact design which combines robustness, reliability and easy to use performance. Within pump applications, these new drives can help ensure an evenly distributed workload for maximum productivity.
They also feature an energy saving sleep mode at low or zero flow conditions, an automatic dry shutdown facility and the capability to lower flow and maintain supply in the event of a burst pipe or leak.
For air handling equipment with valves, fans and dampers, these drives provide effective control, enabling easy frequency skipping, when required and immediate broken belt warning to reduce fan downtime.
