What are VSDs, and how do they work?

Variable speed drives – also known as adjustable speed drives (ASDs) or variable frequency drives (VFDs) – control the speed and torque of motors that drive fans, pumps or compressors in HVAC systems. They work by adjusting the frequency (Hz), voltage (V) or current of your existing HVAC system to better meet load requirements.
