Yaskawa U1000 - Low Harmonic Drive
Build In Low Harmonics Regenerative Matrix Converter

The Yaskawa U1000 Low Harmonic Drive is an advanced regenerative variable speed drive (VSD) engineered to provide superior motor control, exceptional energy efficiency, and outstanding power quality for industrial and commercial applications. Utilizing innovative Matrix Converter technology, the U1000 performs direct AC-to-AC power conversion without the need for conventional DC bus capacitors, resulting in improved reliability, reduced maintenance requirements, and a more compact system design.

Engineered for modern industrial and HVAC applications, the Yaskawa U1000 delivers exceptional power quality with built-in harmonic suppression capabilities. The drive achieves current distortion levels of less than 5% THDi and maintains a power factor greater than 0.98, helping facilities meet IEEE 519 harmonic compliance requirements without the need for additional harmonic filters or external mitigation equipment.

In addition, the drive's regenerative capability allows excess energy generated during motor deceleration and braking to be fed back into the power supply rather than dissipated as heat, contributing to significant energy savings and reduced operating costs.

Suitable for pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, HVAC systems, material handling equipment, and various industrial processes, the Yaskawa U1000 delivers precise speed and torque control while enhancing productivity and sustainability.
