HOUSTON, TX — May 21, 2018 — The AS3 low voltage adjustable speed drive (ASD) offered by Toshiba International Corporation (TIC) has been recognized by Electrical Construction & Maintenance (EC&M) Magazine as Product of the Year in the Motors & Drives category. The AS3, among other category winners, now will compete for the Platinum, Gold, and Silver 2018 Product of the Year awards to be determined via online readers’ poll hosted by EC&M, available online at www.ecmweb.com/2018-product-year-gallery. The winners are expected to be announced in the August 2018 issue of EC&M.

“We are honored for the AS3 to be recognized as an EC&M Product of the Year,” said Brian Keith, senior product manager of low voltage adjustable speed drives at TIC. “Built-in communications and Internet of Things applications will factor heavily into the industry’s future and we thank the judges panel for taking this and the other features of the AS3 into consideration.”

EC&M Product of the Year category winners were chosen for their commitment to safety, innovation, and efficiency. Entries submitted were evaluated carefully by a panel of judges comprised of experts in electrical engineering, contracting, plant facilities, and maintenance industries.

Available now, the AS3 is designed with an emphasis on built-in communications to maximize real-time data provided to end-users in industries such as Oil & Gas, Mining & Minerals, Chemical, and Water/Wastewater. The AS3 is ideal for Industry 4.0/IoT (Internet of Things) applications in industrial and manufacturing markets. Multi-protocol communications channels empower businesses to learn and adjust from data available through connected manufacturing. Other features include an embedded web server, built-in LCD display and advanced keypad, QR code alerts, safe-torque off terminal, and more functions enabling end-users to easily manage motor & drive systems.

The AS3 can be supplied with additional options to expand control, allow greater flexibility, and provide better protection for applications.
