Providing a solution with an oil-filled transformer and a specially engineered NEMA 3R rectifier, both installed outdoor, allowed the end user to install the inverter in the existing PDC with no impact on HVAC capacity. Other benefits included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Small footprint &#8211; No need for a new PDC, resulting in significant cost savings!<\/li>\n<li>Outdoor installation of transformer &#8211; 50% Smaller indoor footprint, 60% HVAC capacity reduction.<\/li>\n<li>Outdoor installation of rectifier &#8211; Minimized footprint, granting project feasibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The end user was so pleased with the result of this project, both in the performance and reliability of the solution, that they have used Benshaw\u2019s M2L MV drive on additional projects.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><em>Electrical Solutions to Mechanical Problems<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Benshaw is widely recognized as a leading provider of applied motor control technologies.
