VFD & Soft Starter Selection Toolkit — Calculator

VFD & Soft Starter Selection Toolkit

Choose kW or HP, enter motor & site info, and get quick selection guidance.

This free calculator helps engineers, technicians, and panel designers quickly size VFDs, Soft Starters, brake resistors, and enclosures in line with U.S. industrial standards.

  1. Find the right drive in minutes. Enter motor data to get size, current, and ROI instantly.
  2. Don’t guess your panel gear. Practical tips match standard U.S. installations for drives and starters.
  3. Trusted by engineers and electricians—simple, accurate, and built for daily motor control tasks.
  4. Save time and money with one tool covering drive rating, brake resistor, and enclosure advice.

Enter either kW or HP — the other converts automatically.
Leave blank to compute from VFD inputs.
