Ultimate Flexibility & Compressor Pairing
The EVM Series offers ultimate flexibility in system integration. It can connect to various devices and systems including mobile applications (App), personal computers (PC tool), web servers, cloud platforms, Building Management Systems (BMS), and any Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) via an operator interface.
The EVM Compressor Pairing chart illustrates the compatibility of EVM VFDs with different motor Horsepower (HP) ratings across various VFD Input Kilowatt ratings and voltage/phase configurations (120V-1Ø, 230V-1Ø, 208V-3Ø, 480V-3Ø, 575V-3Ø). For example, a 0.37 kW VFD input can support motors from 0.5 HP up to 2 HP, while a 30 kW input can support motors up to 40 HP. Some higher power ranges are marked as "In Development".
