Frequenzgesteuerter

Frequenzgesteuerter refers to a device or system whose operation is controlled by adjusting its operating frequency. This means that the speed, rate, or output of the device is directly proportional to the frequency of a signal that drives it. In many applications, frequency control allows for precise regulation of processes that are inherently linked to oscillations or cycles.

One common area where frequency control is employed is in electric motors, particularly through the use of Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). VFDs alter the frequency of the electrical power supplied to a motor, thereby controlling its rotational speed. This enables energy savings by matching motor speed to the load requirements, and also provides a smoother start and stop for the motor.

Another application is in radio frequency (RF) systems, where tuning to a specific frequency is essential for selecting and transmitting signals. Frequency-controlled oscillators are fundamental components in communication devices, allowing them to operate on designated channels. In scientific instruments, precise frequency control can be used for calibration and measurement. The underlying principle is to manipulate an oscillating signal to achieve a desired outcome in a linked system.
