why contactor not provided between output of VFD and motor?
Answer Posted / revansiddappa p.h.
Basically contactor is used to make and break the circuit
like any switch. For handling higher current and volatge we
use contactor; not only for motors.
Between VFD and motor; contactor is not required.
Because VFD will have features like enable and disable.
VFD will use IGBT's inside for switching application.
As IGBT's are semiconductor ; switching is fast compared
to electromachanical type contactor.And IGBT's handles
larger currnts.By enabling or desabling of VFD we can
Start/stop motor(with speed command). If contactor is used
there will be some time difference in swithcing ON/OFF of
IGBT and contactor which may lead to failure of IGBT and
motor winding and insulation. So it is meaning less to use
conatctor and also cost will be more.
