An inverter is an electrical power conversion device. Another well-known name for an inverter is a power converter. The term “inverter” appears frequently. Its Turkish equivalent is “invertör.” Inverters take voltage from any DC source and use it to obtain AC voltage at a fixed or variable frequency. An inverter can also be considered a type of power electronics circuit. In addition, an inverter has a reverse function called a rectifier.
Inverters have a wide range of applications. They are commonly used in small power supplies for computers and in electrical distribution systems. Large-scale systems also frequently use inverters. There are many types of inverters, including microprocessor-controlled or low-voltage inverters, overload-protected inverters, and inverters with static regulation.
Why are inverters used?
Inverters serve multiple purposes. They help the system operate more efficiently by preventing interruptions, fluctuations, and imbalances. They also increase system efficiency, minimize motor or mechanical failures, reduce maintenance costs, extend device lifespan, and provide energy savings. When selecting an inverter, it is important to consider that its capacity should exceed the total power of the devices you plan to use. Knowing the power consumption of your equipment before purchasing is essential.
In heating, ventilation, and air conditioning applications, one of the most commonly used technologies is frequency drive technology. Motor-mounted frequency inverter in-line centrifugal pumps offer many features.
Features of Genio INM Series Motor-Mounted Frequency Inverter In-Line Centrifugal Pumps
INM Genio motor-mounted frequency inverter pumps are in-line (pipeline type), driven by standard electric motors, and equipped with mechanical seals. The direct installation of the frequency inverter on the motor provides compact unit design, easy integration into intelligent applications, compatibility with various sensors, and quiet, safe operation. The basic dimensions and nominal flow rates comply with DIN 24255 and EN 733 standards. Flanges comply with DIN 2535 PN 16 pressure class. Suction and discharge flanges are identical and on the same axis, with pressure taps on both flanges. The single-suction, closed-type impeller is equipped with rear rings that balance axial loads and is dynamically balanced. The motor is coupled to the pump using an adapter and flange. The pump shaft, impeller, and other parts can be removed without disassembling the suction and discharge pipes or the pump casing, making installation and maintenance easy.
