The Eaton VFD Product Line: DC1 VFDs

 With a company focus on finding multiple technology ways to improve life as well as protect the environment, every one of Eaton’s variable frequency drive controller products or VFDs are built to be both green-friendly as well to help plants and companies achieve better sustainability without losing performance at the same time. That includes VFD technology solutions from automated management of hydraulic, mechanical, and even electrical systems. Instead of taking up huge footprints, many of Eaton VFD product choices are built and designed with compact placement as well as the ability to re-configure down the line for additional control needs. The PowerXL DC1 VFD line is a great example.

A Big Punch in a Small Box

Not only is the DC1 built to include all the basics one expects to receive from a top quality VFD, like managing motor performance to output needs as well as maintenance schedules and controlling an energy efficient consumption to avoid waste, the DC1 line is also extremely small and easy to situate, especially in compact manufacturing environments where space is already at a premium.

The combination of the DC1’s design is so unique, many new plants as well as renovation and redesigns of existing plants are using them because they actually produce a notable space savings over legacy VFDs that were much larger and bulkier to handle. Even better, despite Eaton’s VFD’s being a jump forward in applied plant technology, they provide new owners a solid support program for training that includes safety, troubleshooting, e-learning for references and protocol enforcements, and instructor-led classes on VFD equipment as well. This comprehensive approach makes Eaton’s VFD’s easy to migrate over to because companies and plants literally shift will full support from their old equipment to the Easton DC1 line.

Both Standard and New Features Included

In addition to the size benefits, the PowerXL DC1 is extremely user-friendly both with its administration screen as well as its flexibility to be re-configured to new system and process requirements. The units come with a robust overload capacity for momentary spikes, plenty of I/O connection points, and the capability to be configured to different international standards. That’s in addition to standard features like a built-in EMC filter and braking transistor. Eaton’s PowerXL DC1 is a clear step up in practical VFD control and system management, and it only makes sense for companies with system machine controls to consider Eaton’s compact product line offering.

Ethernet Switching - What You Should Know

  Local Area Networks (LANs) were once accustomed to the use of connectors like repeaters and hubs until Ethernet Switches came to be in the 90s. Connectors, as their title implies, are those additional pieces that make computers possible to connect . But the specific Ethernet Switches function at the OSI model's data link layer 2. Categorized under "network bridges" , these switches are unlike the also known router . With Ethernet switching, information transfer happens to all connected network devices regardless of which is which. With routers, on the other hand, the relay of data is restricted to a specific device in the network. In Ethernet networking technology , the term Bridges could take the place of Switches and the same applies the other way around. Although, a connector must be completely tested and proven to comply with the Ethernet 802.3 networking standard for it to deserve the title of being an Ethernet Switch . Ethernet Switching, although highly simi...

Modernization and Eaton VFDs

  System modernization comes with many benefits , but to make it work effectively, a plant must work with the right controls. If hampered with old ones, the advantages of modernization become lost as they go through legacy bottlenecks that are not responsive or able to handle the higher capacity of advanced technology . Breakthrough Mismatches in Systems Eaton VFDs make it easy for companies and system operations to modernize their system controls effectively and in ways that match the expectations of advanced changes. Not only do Eaton VFDs already come with the durability and reliability expected of industrial variable frequency drives in the first place, but Eaton VFDs also add new advantages that directly contribute to saving money, time and resources from legacy waste. Multiple Benefits Available If Configured Correctly Modernization is critical now more than ever. Aside from 2020, production and system support companies are already seeing an exponential increase in au...

Carrying Out Underfloor Heating Maintenance

Electrical underfloor heating is well known for its reliability . The ease of installation , lack of water pipes and reduction in general wear and tear means that there is very little that can go wrong with an underfloor heating system . However, things can go wrong. If you follow these simple steps, your underfloor heating system should give you many years of problem-free, comfortable heat . And if anything does go wrong, problems can be easily located and fixed. Test, test, test If you want to minimise the chances of any future problems you should test the heating system before, during and after installation. Use a multimeter to check the resistance in the system, to ensure a current is going through it and none of the wires have been damaged . Before laying the flooring, switch the system on to ensure it begins to heat up . Any problems with the system should be revealed at this stage. Once the tests have been passed, and the flooring laid, there is very little chance of ...
