VFD66 Series Condenser Fan Speed Controls
The VFD66 Series Condenser Fan Speed Controls
regulate the speed of 3-phase condenser fan motors in
refrigeration and Heating, Ventilating, and Air
Conditioning (HVAC) systems by varying the
frequency and voltage of the power supplied to the
motor.
The VFD66 control accepts an input signal from the
P35 Pressure Transducer, P399 Electronic Pressure
Transducer, System 350
controls, or any other device that provides a 0-5 VDC
or 0-10 VDC analog output signal.
The application-specific design of the VFD66 control
provides a simple interface, which makes the control
easy to understand and operate.
Isolated Input Circuitry
Simultaneous Acceptance
of Two Similar Inputs
Compact Design
Three-Phase, 208/230, or
400/460 VAC Models
Few End-User Settings
