Inverter Controlled Heat Pump Systems Operation, Challenges and Classroom Demos - Eugene Silberstein

Eugene Silberstein, Director of Technical Education and Standards, HVAC Excellence/ESCO Group, presents "Inverter Controlled Heat Pump Systems Operation, Challenges and Classroom Demos" as part of BEST Center's 2023 Annual Institute.

Advances in inverter technology has had one of the most profound effects on the HVACR industry, over the past two decades. Heat pump system development has benefited a great deal from these advances.

In this brief session, we will discuss how to quickly and effectively teach the basics of inverter technology to your students, while addressing some of the challenges faced when installing and servicing these systems. As part of this session, you will hear about some effective hands-on exercises that you can have your students complete to help them further their understanding of inverter-driven fans, blowers and compressors and their contribution to more efficient system operation.
