AC Drives

The AC Drives category covers variable-frequency drives (VFDs) used by controls engineers, machine builders, and panel shops to regulate motor speed, torque, and energy consumption across a wide range of industrial applications. Inventory spans compact machine-mount drives rated for harsh or washdown environments (IP66/IP67, NEMA 4/4X), mid-range general-purpose drives for standard 240V and 480V three-phase motor control, and network-ready drives with integrated fieldbus communication — including EtherNet/IP and other industrial protocols — for use in coordinated motion or process control systems. Sub-fractional through multi-horsepower current ratings are stocked to support VFD selection across conveyors, pumps, fans, and packaging machinery. Buyers evaluating soft-start alternatives, comparing open-chassis versus enclosed drive configurations, or sourcing safety-rated variants with integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) will find options across multiple enclosure types and current classes within this category.
