AC Sensorless Vector Control of Induction Motor Drive for Escalator
Escalators are widely used in shopping malls, super markets, and other public buildings. The main motor keep running at low or even zero speed while no user on, and once user coming is detected, repaid and smooth start should be taken action. In this way, the equipments save normally up to 80% of energy, compare to constant speed system.

Benefits |
flexible input methods |
1. Speed input-Take running speed of the motor as the control objective Speed input consists of the main speed input, auxiliary speed input and inching speed input, etc. The actual effective combined speed input can be either of the three or the combination of either of the two. 2. Torque input-Take output torque of the motor as the control objective Set output torque of the motor directly, particularly suited to application fields requiring tension control. |
Terminal-Peripheral equipment control |
Control start/stop with the contact or button to simply realize the automation control of the entire equipment system. |
Vector control 0 |
Real time estimates speed information of the motor only, without feedback control, real-time closed-loop control of the current all the way, 0.50 Hz outputs rated torque of up to 150%, track load change and limit output current automatically to make it not exceed the permitted maximum current value.No overcurrent error even if load mutation, rapid acceleration and deceleration to realize high performance and high reliability configuration of the universal Inverter. |
Vector control 1 |
Not only real time estimates speed information of the motor, but also conduct feedback control, real-time closed-loop control of both the speed and current all the way, which can realize not only speed control but also torque control, and can translate universal AC induction motor into AC speed regulation motor and AC torque motor by adopting such kind of drive mode. This is a real vector control Inverter without external speed sensor. |
S curve acceleration/deceleration mode |
S curve acceleration/deceleration can reduce impact to the machine at start/stop time, and suitable for the start/stop process for loads of handling and transmission categories. |

Tips:
A variable-frequency drive (VFD) is a system for controlling the rotational speed of an alternating current (AC) electric motor by controlling the frequency of the electrical power supplied to the motor. A variable frequency drive is a specific type of adjustable-speed drive. Variable-frequency drives are also known as adjustable-frequency drives (AFD), variable-speed drives (VSD), AC drives, microdrives or inverter drives. Since the voltage is varied along with frequency, these are sometimes also called VVVF (variable voltage variable frequency) drives.
