Load Type, Duty Cycle Efficiency & Cost Analysis

Utilities regularly promote variable speed drives on centrifugal applications. Consider the possible energy savings in other applications as well.

Constant Torque, Variable Torque and "Squared Exponential Loads" all follow a basic energy law. When the motor speed is reduced, the KW consumption decreases.
