The Cooper Crouse-Hinds Solution That Drives
Many Benefits

ACE Explosionproof VFDs are the optimal choice for motor control in Class I, Division 1 and 2 locations for a number of reasons.

  • Simple and Cost Effective Installations – ACE Explosionproof VFDs can be installed inside hazardous areas right next to the operation, eliminating expensive, complicated installations. There is no need to run long lines of conduit and motor cable, navigate around obstacles and hazards, or build off-site control rooms in non-hazardous areas to house VFD clusters.
  • Reduced Energy Usage – ACE Explosionproof VFDs allow you to adjust the motor’s level of power to exactly what is needed for optimal performance, significantly lowering energy consumption.
  • Reduced Downtime – Built-in diagnostics monitor equipment information and operating conditions, bringing visibility to potential issues before they become problems. Maintenance can be proactively scheduled during non-production hours.
  • Lower Maintenance Costs – The ACE Explosionproof VFD’s ability to lower system speeds and loads, as well as its soft start and stop capabilities, helps eliminate water hammer effects, increase life on bearings and seals and reduce stress on the overall electrical system.

In many cases the energy and installation savings realized with the ACE Series will pay for the drive in one year.
