- Selections save energy and cost.
- Impeller trim saves energy and cost.
- Superior Control.
- Smaller size motor and control.
- Wiring VFD mounting bracket savings.
- Harmonic distortion
- Emission and immunity requirements.
- Reflected wave voltage.
- Envelope selection reduces risk and cost.
- Energy metering Capability.
- Saves wall space.
