Drive solutions by Riyadh Al Etqan Co. at Jeddah Airport provided comprehensive industrial services for ABB ACS800, ACH550, and Danfoss FC-102P AC Drives. Our team of experienced engineers executed a detailed program to ensure each drive operates at maximum efficiency and reliability.

The scope of work included:

Capacitor Reforming: Restoring the dielectric strength of drive capacitors to prevent premature failures and improve energy efficiency.

Testing & Commissioning: Performing rigorous testing procedures to validate drive operation under all expected load conditions, ensuring seamless integration with airport systems.

Harmonic Analysis: Assessing and mitigating harmonic distortions in the power network to protect sensitive equipment and improve overall power quality.

By applying industrial-grade solutions and best practices, we helped the airport achieve enhanced operational reliability, extended drive lifespan, and optimized energy usage. Our approach emphasizes not just fixing issues, but implementing preventive measures to minimize downtime and maintenance costs.

With our expertise, ABB and Danfoss drives now operate with consistent performance, stability under varying loads, and improved safety margins, supporting critical airport operations around the clock.

High-Efficiency Motors Alone: A Good Start

Upgrading to high-efficiency motors is a step in the right direction. These motors can trim energy consumption by 15-40% compared to standard motors, enhancing overall system performance.

The Role of VFDs: A Game-Changer

Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) are the game-changer in this equation. Here's why:

Precise Control: VFDs enable real-time adjustments to motor speed based on demand, eliminating wasted energy from running at a constant full speed.

Energy Savings: Incorporating VFDs can lead to energy savings ranging from 35% to 60% in commercial HVAC systems by fine-tuning motor speed for optimal efficiency.

Reduced Operating Costs: While the initial investment may be higher, the long-term benefits include lower energy bills, reduced carbon footprint, and extended system life.

Here's the bottom line:

Upgrading to higher efficiency motors is beneficial, but pairing them with VFDs takes it to the next level:
