Product Description Customer Value
- The AF-60 FP Drive, a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), installed in - Current turbine exhaust fan controls allow 100% air flow, on or off,
the turbine enclosure allows air flow to be controlled or reduced, allowing no operator control. At low ambient temperatures (<40 0F)
preventing damage at low temperatures. this can freeze piping and damage internal instrumentation.
- The AF-600 FP Drive includes: - AF-600 FP Drive System reduces stress on fan drives belts as well as
reducing airflow during cold weather to prevent turbine
- Motor turning, RFI Filter, AC Line Reactor, and Choke filter
instrumentation damage.
- Three discrete input signals (from VFD to control system),
- AF-600 FP Drive System also allows operator control over airflow,
provide VFD status feedback.
allowing turbine exhaust to be reduced by up to 50%.
- One discrete output from control system providing start command.
- Sophisticated controls include an Energy Savings Optimzer that can
- One analog controller output signal providing speed command. boost energy savings by 5-15% at partial loads.

- AF-600 FP Drive provides warnings and alarms if certain parameters - Reduced parasitic load from heaters and motors.
are met, can also trip motor.
- Improved starting reliability.
- VFD panel must be mounted within 100 meters of fan motor and
- Reduce risk/prevent fan belt breakage, increasing maintance savings.
located indoors or within a heated enclosure.

- Customer must provide system appropriate power supply

and cables.
