Emergency VSD Hire to Restore Critical Operations

Emergency VSD hire to keep your process running

When a drive failure stops production, a temporary variable speed drive can restore the process while the failed unit is repaired or a permanent replacement is sourced. New Start Energy provides emergency VSD hire, engineering selection, ancillary equipment, installation and commissioning support across the UK.

Call 0330 153 9188 with the drive nameplate, motor current or kW, supply voltage, application, control requirements and site postcode. We will confirm technical suitability, availability, transport and the engineering scope before mobilisation.

Temporary VSD Hire for Critical Operations

Temporary drive hire is assessed against your application
A suitable temporary VSD depends on the motor rating, supply, control requirements, enclosure, site access and availability.

Send the details needed for a suitability review
Provide nameplate photographs, the application, site postcode and required timescale so the scope, transport and engineering support can be confirmed.

  • UK Delivery and Mobilisation Planning

    Timing is confirmed after the required rating, configuration, location and availability are reviewed.

  • Engineered Installation Support

    Installation and commissioning support can be included within the agreed temporary-drive scope.

  • Marine VSD Hire Assessment

    Marine requirements are reviewed against the drive, motor, controls, environment and mobilisation needs.

Include the drive brand, model and rating if available.
Include motor kW or current, supply voltage, application and control requirements.

What is included ?

Where agreed, the hire service can include enclosure, isolation, cabling and control interfaces, delivery, installation, commissioning, support during the hire period and planned removal after permanent reinstatement. Availability and response depend on the required rating, configuration, location and engineer availability.

When temporary drive hire is appropriate

A hire drive can provide a controlled short-term solution when a critical VSD has failed, a replacement has a long lead time or planned refurbishment would otherwise stop production. It may also support a scheduled shutdown, commissioning activity or temporary increase in capacity where the engineering requirements are understood.

Technical checks before mobilisation

Correct selection depends on more than motor power. Our engineers review supply voltage, full-load current, overload duty, motor type, application, control signals, communications, enclosure requirements and environmental conditions. The proposed arrangement must also account for isolation, protection, cabling, cooling, safe access and commissioning.

Send photographs of the drive and motor nameplates, the fault display, the panel layout and any available drawings. For urgent faults, use our emergency VSD support service. If the failed unit is suitable for workshop assessment, review our VSD repair services.
