Market Definition

A variable frequency drive (VFD) is an electronic motor control device that drives an electric motor by changing the voltage and frequency supplied in the electric motor circuit. VFD works by converting fixed frequency and fixed voltage sine wave power to a variable frequency or variable output voltage, which is used to control the speed of a motor. It is also referred to as variable speed drive, adjustable speed drive, adjustable frequency drive, AC drive, micro drive, and inverter. The primary advantages associated with the use of VFD include less energy consumption and energy cost, controlled performance, extended equipment life, and low maintenance cost. It is mainly used for variable torque applications in various industries, such as oil & gas, water & wastewater treatment, power, paper & pulp, textile, and mining. The market for variable frequency drives is defined as the sum of revenues generated by companies through the sale of variable frequency drives.
