The Drives & Motion Division of Yaskawa America has released the Z1000U HVAC Matrix Drive, which provides extremely low harmonic distortion in a space-saving design, along with the same HVAC-specific features as the standard Z1000. This single component solution achieves excellent low distortion levels without the need for additional countermeasures. Yaskawa's matrix technology employs a system of nine bidirectional switches arranged in a matrix to convert a three-phase AC input voltage into a three-phase AC output voltage.
