Variable Frequency AC Drive Training System | Hands-On VFD Skills

Learning System: 85-MT5C

Request Info

Amatrol’s Variable Frequency AC Drive Learning System, AB PowerFlex (85-MT5C) adds to the Electric Motor Control Learning System (85-MT5) to teach basic and advanced concepts related to variable frequency drives (VFDs), as well as their many industrial applications, including fans, pumps, conveyors, mixers, grinders, and hoists. For example, learners will study the operation, installation, design, performance analysis, and troubleshooting of VFDs.

Learners will also practice hands-on skills like programming and operating a variable frequency AC drive to ramp a motor up to its rated speed and decelerate to a stop. The training system features heavy-duty, real-world components, such as an Allen-Bradley PowerFlex4 VFD, multi-turn potentiometer for speed control, and selector switches for general drive control, basic stop/start, ramping, and dynamic braking. These industry-standard components prepare learners for situations that they will encounter on the job.

Learning Topics

Variable Frequency AC Drives
Two- and Three-Wire Motor Control
Jogging, Speed, & Torque Control
Acceleration, Deceleration, Braking, & Ramping
S-Curve Acceleration
Fault Detection & Troubleshooting

Study VFD Components and Practice on Real-World Equipment

Amatrol’s variable frequency AC drive training system includes real-world equipment, such as an Allen-Bradley PowerFlex variable frequency AC drive, dual fuse block, emergency stop pushbutton with key-lock, multi-turn potentiometer for speed control, and selector switches for general drive control, basic stop/start, ramping, and dynamic braking. These industry-standard components teach learners essential hands-on skills they’ll actually use on the job.

Learn Essential VFD Operation and Troubleshooting Skills

Added to the electric motor control training system, learners using Amatrol's variable frequency AC drive training system will study basic and advanced VFD topics, such as two- and three-wire motor control, jogging control, speed control, ramping, special acceleration methods, and braking. They then apply this theoretical knowledge to hands-on skills, like programming and operating a variable frequency AC drive to drive a motor above its base speed. The system also adds five faults focused on the variable frequency AC drive to FaultPro, Amatrol’s exclusive computer-based fault insertion system. Learners will practice hands-on fault detection and clearing through skills like troubleshooting the parameter settings of a variable frequency AC drive and manually clearing a fault on a VFD.

Interactive Variable Frequency AC Drive eLearning Curriculum

Amatrol's variable frequency AC drive training system features interactive eLearning curriculum that integrates various types of learning methods to create an engaging, effective learning experience. Amatrol’s multimedia eLearning curriculum includes text with voiceovers, videos, 3D animations, pictures, and interactive activities, quizzes, and self-reviews. Specific variable frequency AC drive topics covered include: speed and torque control; acceleration, deceleration, and braking; and fault diagnostics and troubleshooting. Within these topics, learners will study objectives like programming and operating a variable frequency AC drive to drive a motor above its base speed; programming and operating a variable frequency AC drive to provide S-curve acceleration; and troubleshooting a circuit that includes a variable frequency AC drive.

Free Learning Management System (LMS)

Amatrol eLearning is easy-to-use for both students and instructors. Its web-based interface is simple to navigate and available on any WebGL-compatible Internet browser. Instructors love Amatrol eLearning for its simple, yet sophisticated Learning Management System (LMS). The LMS allows instructors to create custom courses, monitor student participation, track course progress, assess knowledge levels prior to a course, and test knowledge levels after completion. Learners appreciate the fact that they can start and stop as needed, moving through each Amatrol course at their own pace. If a self-review reveals that they didn’t understand a particular topic as well as they thought they did, they can revisit it before moving on.
