Description

Explosion proof VFD control panels designed for variable speed control of motors in hazardous locations. These systems help improve process control, reduce energy consumption, and protect pumps, fans, and mixers operating under variable load conditions. These products are engineered for hazardous locations where certified enclosure structure, component selection, cable entry, heat management, and safe operation are essential. Depending on project scope, GN Smart Control can support local operation, remote start/stop, indication, alarms, interlocks, communication, and packaged integration with motors, instruments, and field devices.

Key Features

• Custom engineering based on hazardous area classification and project standards
• Reliable internal layout for operation, protection, and maintenance access
• Support for local control, remote signals, alarms, interlocks, and communication
• Suitable for skid packages, fixed installations, and system integration projects

Typical Applications

hazardous-area pumps, ventilation fans, mixers, agitators, and compressors that need variable speed control and smoother process regulation

Selection Information Required

• hazardous area classification and required certification
• motor power, voltage, frequency, speed range, and driven equipment type
• control method, start or stop logic, local or remote control, and communication protocol
