AC or EC motors? Compact fans? Planetary gearboxes? These and other questions from the ebm-papst universe are explained in the “What The Tech?!” videos.
A series for inquisitive people, for technology enthusiasts or anyone who also wonders why not all motors are the same and what requirements our changing world has for the technology of tomorrow.
Every two weeks, there will be a new, exciting explanatory video from the world of air and drive technology.
A heat pump provides heat, but is also capable of cooling your home. It transfers heat from one place to another by different air or heat sources. Find out about the exact working principle of a heat pump here.»

Does a stepper motor or a servo motor suits the needs of your application best? And what are exactly the differences between a servo motor and a stepper motor? Lets find it out together.»
When space is limited, there is often no other solution: A compact fan that takes up little space and still delivers the necessary performance is needed.»
Of course, planetary gears don't drive planets. It's called that because like in our solar system, everything revolves around the sun gear, the drive at the center.»
This video explains the working principle of brushed motors and brushless motors.»
Minimize the wear, noise and energy consumption of your ventilation system by using the FanGrid technology.»
Resonance is key for a smoothly operating fan. But, unfortunately, resonance can cause damage. That's how fans can handle resonance and vibration.»
Understanding the basic principles of air filter systems is key to develop better and more efficient ways to provide clean air. But how do you clean air? And what does clean air actually mean? »
Does higher efficiency also mean better performance? Not necessarily. Ultimately, it depends on the application and installation location of axial and centrifugal fans.»
There are different motors and in this video we look at the difference between internal and external rotor motors.»
Why does a fan need a frequency converter? Why is it important? And how does it work?»
When we compare an electronically commutated motor with an electric motor driven by an alternating current one thing becomes evident: The EC motor has a greater energy-saving potential.»
What are the differences between an electric motor with an alternating current (AC motor) and an electronically commutated EC motor and what are the advantages? »
