How does TRIAC control motor?

Triac Phase Control The variable resistor, VR1 is used to control the amount of phase shift on the gate of the triac which in turn controls the amount of voltage applied to the motor by turning it ON at different times during the AC cycle.

How does a TRIAC speed control circuit work?

In a triac phase control circuit, the triac is triggered ON only for specific portions of the AC half cycles, causing the load to operate only for that period of the AC waveform. This results in a controlled supply of power to the load.

How do the speed of AC induction motor is controlled?

By injecting EMF in rotor circuit In this method, speed of an induction motor is controlled by injecting a voltage in rotor circuit. It is necessary that voltage (emf) being injected must have same frequency as of the slip frequency. However, there is no restriction to the phase of injected emf.

How AC current to a load can be controlled by a triac phase control?

PHASE CONTROL By controlling the phase angle or the trigger angle ‘’ (delay angle), the output RMS voltage across the load can be controlled. When the input ac voltage reverses and becomes negative during the negative half cycle the current flowing through the conducting thyristor decreases and falls to zero.

How does a motor speed control work?

How does a motor speed controller work? All 4QD controllers work by switching the battery connection to the motor on and off around 20,000 times a second using a technique called pulse width modulation [PWM]. The motor averages these pulses out, as this rate of switching is too fast for the motor to detect.

How does a triac fan regulator work?

This type of voltage regulator is an energy saving device which uses TRIAC, DIAC and potentiometric resistance. This method provides the step less control of the fan speed by deriving the required amount of power from the main supply at a given instant. Hence, the power is conserved rather than wasted unnecessarily.

Why triac is used in fan regulator?

Triacs are used in this circuit as a dimmer as they are easy to design and control, and are very much economic due to their high efficiency and low buying costs. This is the circuit diagram of the simplest lamp dimmer or fan regulator. The circuit works by varying the firing angle of the Triac.
