 Why use AC Drives in Data Centres

 The considerable daily cooling load variation in Data Centres makes it

economical and attractive to install AC Drives on more or less all
rotating equipment such as fans, pumps and compressors.

The benefits obtain are typically:

 Substantial Energy Savings
 Better asset protection
 Less maintenance cost
 Higher plant reliability/performance Time
