Question:

What are the differences between electronic governor and frequency converter in motor speed regulation?

Electronic governor for single-phase motor speed control, frequency converter for three-phase motor speed regulation, what are their differences in speed control effect? How does the frequency converter adjust speed? Can you give me an example?

Answer:

The electronic governor for single-phase motor, by changing the access winding resistance and capacitance to adjust the motor speed, the speed of the output power supply for power has not changed, so the speed is not a kind of energy-saving control methods, such as the electric fan like for home.
Inverter is to realize the speed adjustment of AC asynchronous motor by changing the motor power supply frequency, speed adjustment and balance, load property of the motor does not change with changes in speed, suitable for load adjustment and torque adjustment. Good performance, but high cost.
The electronic governor is used to change the power supply voltage of the motor by controlling the turn-on angle of the thyristor, so as to change the characteristic curve of the motor to change the speed of the asynchronous motor. Its characteristics are as follows: the motor speed adjustment range of small, low speed motor with load capacity, speed is reduced, the motor torque decreases, not for constant load moment, when the speed is low, easy blockage phenomenon; generally applies only to fan type load.
Is the original power inverter direct input three-phase asynchronous motor inverter in inverter internal access first, through PWM electronic converter technology will AC rectifier, inverter, a controllable frequency alternating current at the input to the motor, the motor operation can be controlled by V/F, output torque control and vector control control frequency, change the loop current, realize energy-saving operation, especially the energy saving effect is obvious in the motor at light load is a kind of energy-saving products, has been widely spread and applied.
