U.S. Drives

U.S. Drives, based in Niagara Falls, New York, is a trusted manufacturer of Digital AC Drives and AC Line Regeneration Modules designed to excel in challenging applications and tough operating conditions, offering reliability and performance where other AC drive products might fail.

U.S. Drives' Phoenix AC Drive Control is renowned for its reliability, making it a top choice for industries facing issues such as high AC line voltages, power line transients, high ambient temperatures, high starting torque requirements, high impact (shock) loads, AC line harmonics, and regenerative loads.

The company's products are designed to operate at higher voltage levels commonly found in industrial environments, reducing the risk of "overvoltage" trips. Input MOV's and a 3% DC Bus Reactor help absorb line voltage transients, reduce AC line harmonics, and improve input power factor. U.S. Drives' products can operate in ambient temperatures up to 50°C (122°F), providing robust performance in demanding conditions.

U.S. Drives' commitment to quality and performance is evident in its products, which comply with the stringent limits of IEEE 519 for AC line harmonics. The company also offers Line Regen Modules that work with any manufacturer's PWM AC Drive, requiring minimal setup and offering ease of installation with only five wires to connect.
