Yaskawa that is based in Missouri is a great company to work with ordering and tech service.

Re: HVAC VFD Drive Manufacturers
I've heard good things about Yaskawa too, in industrial drives side tho. Have you heard of AC Tech? Couple of people recommended their MCH series drives.

Re: HVAC VFD Drive ManufacturersQuote:
AHH, please don't do it. First off they suck to get parts for. Secondly, I have seen so many in new schools that are already out of production. I think most of the ones I have seen were bought disconntinued. Cost over $2000 for a set of ABB contactors for a drive less than 2 years old. |

Re: HVAC VFD Drive Manufacturers
Just don't like Simmons drives. Had some problems with power supply requirements. They can't handle any spikes at all and then shut down. AB is good.
