How Do AC Drives Work?
AC drives convert the current from AC to DC, and then back to AC again. This process significantly increases output, so the drive can meet the needs of modern machinery. With an AC drive, you also have the ability to control or determine several aspects of how the unit functions. There are different types of AC drives, but one thing they all share in common is their ability to change a fixed voltage and frequency input into variable voltage and frequency outputs.
How Do DC Drives Work?
DC drives work somewhat similarly to AC drives, but their functional process is a little simpler. DC drives convert AC current to DC current in order to power a DC motor. There is no return to the original AC current, as is the case with an AC drive. DC motors achieve speeds which are directly proportional to the voltage applied to the armature of the drive. For this reason, DC motors can be described as functioning in a “no-load” manner.
Some Differences Between AC and DC Drives
AC drives and DC drives are both useful pieces of electronic machinery. Both offer reliable performance with minimal maintenance required, but each drive type has its own set of features and advantages:
AC Drives
- Simple installation & reliable performance for many applications
- Less thermal & mechanical stress on components
- Better at handling changes in rates of speed
- Many programmable parameters
- Uses less energy, lower operating cost
DC Drives
- Easy to operate
- Wide range of speed options
- Better at adapting to changes in speed as a result of changes in voltage
- Low-cost solution for applications requiring higher levels of horsepower
- Excel at contributing regenerative power
- May struggle more in harsh environments
