Hello and welcome to Oh My Industrial Controls! ...brought to you by the producers of Oh My PLC! — where everything works in harmony.
Host Adam:
We've made it to the final round of Oh My Industrial Controls! We've had some laughs, some tears, and now we get to find out who takes home the trophy, if we had a trophy. Contestants, take a deep breath and get ready to answer our last question. For 1 million points, name two ways that variable frequency drives can address harmonics in a facility.
Asma:
1 million points?
Host Adam:
I said what I said. Do you have a response?
Asma:
Yes, you can apply harmonic solutions like an 18 pulse or passive filter to each individual VFD in a facility. It's typical for industrial facilities and even some larger commercial facilities.
Host Adam:
Okay. That's one. And the second?
Asma:
Second. I don't know. I'm blanking.
Host Adam:
Hmm, well, Travis or Josh, for half a million points, what's a second way that a variable frequency drive can address harmonics in a facility?
Josh and Travis:
You can apply harmonic solutions to the entire system or group of loads like an active harmonic filter.
Host Adam:
Outstanding. I have no idea who won anything, but I do know that this was an absolutely thrilling experience for everyone. Thank you for watching and thank you Asma, Travis, and Josh for being such wonderful contestants and helping us all learn more about…
