Variable Frequency Drive Operation
For operation with a variable frequency drive (VFD), always check motor amps when adjusting the operating
frequency. Motor may be sized for the original selected operating speed under 60 Hz. Bypassing the VFD or
increasing the speed from this original selection, even if less than 60 Hz, may cause motor to overload or fail.
Consult factory with fan serial number before increasing the upper limiting frequency.
Always check the fan RPM when adjusting the operating frequency. Do not exceed maximum class fan RPM of
the wheel.
NOTE
It is the responsibility of the installing body to perform coast-down tests and identify any resonant frequencies
after the equipment is fully installed. These resonant frequencies are to be removed from the operating
range of the fan by using the “skip frequency” function in the VFD programming. Failure to remove resonant
frequencies from the operating range will decrease the operating life of the fan and void the warranty.
