With the launch of its new IP56-
rated, CFW-08 ‘Wash’ frequency
inverter, WEG is providing protection
for inverter drive applications in the
food, beverage, and chemical
industries.

The CFW-08 Wash is designed for
applications that require a higher

Space Vector Modulation for
optimised motor control and quiet
operation. It also offers the
performance benefits of 32-bit RISC
microprocessor controlled PWM
