Electronic
Variable Speed Drives
Third
Edition
Michael Brumbach
This one-of-a-kind book gets its distinction
from a total commitment to electronic variable speed drives and
provides the essential information maintenance technicians need to
understand DC and inverter drive technology.
Logically structured, Electronic Variable
Speed Drives, 3E begins with fundamental drive circuits and
builds to an understanding of more complex drive circuits for
improved learning.
Troubleshooting and maintenance are emphasized
throughout, and abundant waveform schematics help guide the reader's
understanding of the theory of operation of the different types of
drives and their circuitry.
This updated third edition includes two new
chapters on digital regenerative DC drives and frequency inverters,
as well as the mechanical installation, electrical installation,
set-up, tuning, programming, operating, and troubleshooting of each
drive.
Features:
- Coverage is basic enough for the novice
drive user, yet comprehensive enough to include information
related to setting up and troubleshooting drives
- New topics include digital regenerative DC
drives and the frequency inverter, bringing additional
manufacturer-specific information to the book
- Explanations and theory are presented in a
clear, concise, no-nonsense manner with very little use of
formulas
- Thorough coverage of troubleshooting
techniques is included, with an entire chapter devoted to DC drive
troubleshooting and AC drive troubleshooting
- Actual manufacturer's schematics enable
readers to approximate the real world as they progress through the
book
- A refresher on DC and AC motor theory is
included in the appendix, as well as coverage of solid-state
devices as they relate to variable speed drive technology
