Home appliances

For consumers, a home appliance takes over everyday tasks and makes life much easier and more comfortable – be it washing clothing or dishes or cooling a home. Historically home appliances have been big energy consumers. But at an age of heightened awareness for the environment and financial costs, the demand for energy efficient systems is rapidly growing. At the same time, consumers expect the sleekest, quietest, most compact and visually appealing home appliances. Also, connectivity between an increasing number of devices requires a fallback for user privacy. Product designers are challenged in terms of form and function: They must deliver smaller, smarter secure solutions that are the most powerful – and the most energy-efficient.

More and more home appliances, including refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, air condition units, are getting a boost in the form of a digital inverter to control the motor. It can turn the motor on and off as required, as well as intelligently regulate its performance. Consumers clearly benefit from the inverterization trend: appliances with digital inverters have longer lifetimes, make less noise, and consume less energy.
