Before the renovation, the carousel was usually controlled by power frequency, with the motor running at a fixed speed. This method has some problems, such as large current surge during startup, single equipment operating speed, lack of flexibility, and high energy consumption.
By introducing a frequency converter, the operation mode of the carousel has become more flexible and diversified. For example, the ANYHZ frequency converter FST-650L series has been successfully applied to a carousel. The device can operate according to preset frequency changes, such as running at 20Hz for 30 seconds, then running at 30Hz for 30 seconds, then running at 40Hz for 1 minute, and finally running at 50Hz for 30 seconds before stopping. This flexible operating mode not only increases entertainment value, but also improves the operating efficiency of the equipment. For detailed parameter sets, please refer to the FC group multi-stage speed instructions and simple PLC functions.
1. Significant energy-saving effect: The frequency converter controls the motor to achieve precise control, reducing the energy consumption of the motor. For example, electric motors do not need to operate at high speeds for a long time, and their working current decreases significantly.
2. Improve equipment safety: The frequency converter has multiple protection functions such as overload protection and short circuit protection, which can effectively prevent motor overload and damage. In addition, the low-frequency high torque output of the frequency converter ensures that the equipment can start smoothly and smoothly when fully occupied.
3. Enhance entertainment: By adjusting the motor speed through a frequency converter, the carousel can achieve a more diverse range of operating modes, increasing the entertainment experience for tourists.
4. Reduce maintenance costs: Frequency converters have replaced traditional mechanical speed regulation methods, reducing mechanical wear and failure rates, thereby lowering equipment maintenance costs.
The application of frequency converters on carousel not only improves the efficiency and safety of equipment operation, but also brings tourists a more diverse and colorful entertainment experience. Of course, the application of frequency converters in amusement equipment is not limited to carousels, such as music fountains, roller coasters, water amusement facilities, etc., injecting new vitality into the development of amusement parks.
