New extended warranty for VFDs

Home Engineering Mechanical – Gears & Gearboxes New extended warranty for VFDs

INVERTEK Drives, a global leader in variable frequency drive (VFD) technology, has announced a three-year warranty on its Optidrive VFD range, reflecting the company’s confidence in the durability and performance of its products.

The decision stems from Invertek’s 26-year legacy of innovation and its commitment to rigorous quality control throughout the manufacturing process. Every Optidrive VFD is built in the company’s state-of-the-art facility in Welshpool, UK, where each drive undergoes meticulous testing, and all of its quality assessed components can be traced back to their origin.

This ensures superior product quality throughout its Optidrive Eco, E3, P2, Coolvert, Compact, and Elevator Core range in variants of IP20, IP55 and IP66 / NEMA 4X enclosures.

The new warranty covers all new Optidrive VFDs manufactured from June 1, 2024, with a standard three-year warranty and an optional Warranty Plus extension for up to five years.
“Invertek’s commitment to innovation and meticulous manufacturing processes has allowed us to confidently extend our warranty coverage,” said Rhydian Welson, sales and marketing director at Invertek Drives.

Confidence

“Our commitment to quality is ingrained in our culture. We work closely with our suppliers, invest heavily in research and development, and utilise advanced manufacturing techniques at our UK-based global manufacturing facility. This results in drives that are not only easy to use and set up but also deliver lasting value to our customers.”

He added: “For over 26 years, we have focused on delivering VFDs that not only meet, but exceed industry standards. This warranty extension is a testament to the durability and reliability of our Optidrive range.

“We believe in building lasting relationships with our customers, and this extended warranty is a reflection of that commitment. We want our customers to have complete peace of mind knowing that their Optidrive VFDs are backed by one of the most comprehensive warranties in the industry.”

Investment in R&D

Invertek’s dedication to quality is evident in its continuous investment in research and development, working closely with suppliers to ensure the highest quality components, and collaborating with a global sales network to provide comprehensive customer support.
The company’s focus on user-friendly design also ensures that Optidrive VFDs are easy to set up and operate, minimising downtime and maximising productivity.

The Optidrive range is renowned for its versatility, catering to a wide array of applications across various industries. These include HVAC, refrigeration, material handling, elevators, ventilation, solar pumping, mining, marine, and more. The extended warranty further enhances the value proposition of the Optidrive range, offering customers peace of mind and a long-term return on their investment.
