Adaptive Frequency™ Drives


While chiller efficiencies have improved dramatically
over the past twenty years, for most commercial
buildings the single largest energy user is still the
chilled water system. A Trane® Adaptive Frequency
Drive (AFD) can improve chilled water system
efficiency without sacrificing comfort. Adaptive
Frequency is a trademarked term for a Trane variable
speed drive which is made to Trane specifications and
uses proprietary control logic.

A variable speed drive maximizes chiller efficiency


and reduces power consumption by adapting the
compressor motor speed and inlet guide vanes to the
chiller operating temperatures.

Features and benefits

Conventional chillers use inlet guide vanes to provide
stable operation at part load conditions. Capacity Patented Adaptive Control™ chiller controller
