Event Details

 

Course Overview

Medium Voltage (MV) variable frequency drives (VFD’s) are widely applied to plant rotating machinery such as pumps, compressors, fans, conveyors, ball mills, sag mills, kilns, extruders, and others in a variety of industries such as mining, water/waste water, oil & gas, power generation, testing, recreation and others.

 

Earn three (3) Professional Pevelopment Hours (PDH) by joining TMEIC and Energy Management Corporation for a ½-day technical school, by TMEIC’s expert, on successfully applying, specifying, evaluating, installing & maintaining MV drives.

 

Course Agenda

 

 

Not only are we taking our MV drive outside, we’re taking it on the road! Stop by and get a hands-on opportunity to view the TMdrive-MVe2 in our new NEMA TYPE 3R rated outdoor enclosure, the TMdrive-Guardian™.

 

 

What you WILL NOT Receive

Here's what previous attendees say about the school:

 “General, non-product specific, knowledge, and cost benefit analysis for different options. 
The presenters had excellent knowledge of the subject matter.”


 “It was technical and not sales oriented.  Very high density application information with real life examples.  Great training!”
