EMHEATER Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) deliver accurate control of electric motors by adjusting the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor. This allows motors to run only at the speed required for the application, resulting in significant energy savings and improved process control.
Clean Imports (part of TCGC) is the official sole distributor of EMHEATER products in Southern Africa.
EMHEATER Soft Starters gradually increase the voltage supplied to an AC induction motor during start-up. This reduces high inrush currents and mechanical shock, resulting in a controlled, soft start and longer equipment life.

Variable Speed Drives (VSDs)
Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) give precise control over electric motors by adjusting the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor. This allows motors to ramp up or down smoothly and run only at the speed required for the application.
Key benefits:
- Significant energy savings (motors no longer run at full speed when not needed)
- Reduced mechanical stress and longer equipment life
- Accurate process control
Soft Starters
A Soft Starter reduces the voltage and current supplied to an AC induction motor during start-up. Instead of a sudden full-power start, the motor accelerates gradually.
Key benefits:
- Lower starting current (reduces electrical stress on the supply)
- Reduced mechanical shock and wear on belts, couplings and driven equipment
- Smoother, more controlled starts
Solar Drives for Water Pumps
Solar Drives are specialised variable frequency drives designed to run water pumps directly from solar panels. They convert the variable DC output from photovoltaic (PV) panels into AC power for the pump motor, and can also accept a conventional AC supply when available.
Key benefits:
- Energy-efficient and environmentally friendly water pumping
- Ideal for remote locations without reliable grid power
- Automatic operation based on available sunlight
Peripherals for VSDs & Solar Drives
Many VSD and Solar Drive installations benefit from additional peripherals depending on the application, motor size, cable length, and power quality. We supply a full range of peripherals to improve performance, reliability and protection.
Available peripherals include:
- DC Bus / Link Chokes (Reactors) – for power factor improvement
- AC Input & Output Chokes (Reactors) – for harmonic filtration
- AC EMC / EMI Filters – for noise disturbance reduction
- Sine Wave Filters – for long cable runs and motor protection
- Dynamic Braking Systems with Aluminium or Porcelain Braking Resistors
These peripherals help protect the drive and motor, reduce harmonics, improve power quality, and extend equipment life.
