What is VFD?

A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is a type of motor controller that drives an electric motor by varying the frequency and voltage supplied to the electric motor. VFD are suitable for a wide range of multi-pump and fan applications. The six mainstream brands of VFD are ABB, Allen Bradley, Schneider, Toshiba and Hitachi.

What is difference between VFD and Soft Starter?

Soft starters are often used in motors that are vulnerable to large inrush currents, while VFD can control and change the speed of the motor. VFD and soft starters are usually used with PLC or AC motors. The functions of VFD and soft starter are basically the same. VFD are dominant in speed control, and soft starters are advantageous in size and price. The VFD can change the speed of the motor, while the soft starter only controls the starting and stopping of the motor.
