Variable Speed Drives (VSDs)
VSDs must be new and not replace existing VSDs. Electronic or mechanical
VSDs controlled automatically by differential pressure, flow or temperature are eligible for rebates. Each VSD must include a minimum 3% impedance series reactor in its AC input connections. Ask your supplier to help with the sizing of the reactor.
VSDs that control HVAC supply fans, return fans, exhaust fans, chilled water and heating hot water circulation pumps up to 40 hp are eligible for rebates.
Please Note: VSDs that control forward-curve fans with inlet guide vanes or variable pitch vane-axial fans or are not eligible for rebates.
