Here is the trending technology that three motor manufacturers are saying will improve the future of motors in HVAC.

A variable speed drive (VSD) controls the speed of the high-torque, direct-drive motor for optimal fan operation.

Selecting a VFD that features remote startup can decrease the number of individuals needed onsite and provide valuable safety benefits.

This product’s applications include Krack® Levitor II LAVK and Microchannel MXK air cooled condensers with 230/3 and 460/3 voltage options.

Now available up to 40 hp, this product has a smartphone interface and comes in stand-alone, disconnect, and bypass versions.

This variable-speed volute has an electronically commutated motor that uses a permanent magnet motor.

While geothermal still represents just a fraction of the overall energy market, a renewed interest in energy efficiency and clean, electric technologies is creating a favorable environment for growth. Per a December 2018 study by Global Market Insights Inc., the global geothermal market is forecasted to reach $4 billion in 2024.

The first thing that comes to mind when thinking about high-end air conditioning systems is usually cost.

This product can provide radiant in-floor heating and cooling, forced air heating and cooling, pool heating, snowmelt, and domestic hot water. Similar to cruise control in a car, the variable-speed water-to-water unit accelerates and decelerates continuously.

This product line is powered by both ambient light and direct sunlight. The variable air volume (VAV) diffuser can be used with thermostats and is completely wireless, enabling maximum comfort, greater efficiency, and simplified installation.
