Control & drive systems
Sensors observe the process, actuators execute commands and drives create movement. Compatible signals and coordinated parameters connect these tasks into a working system.

Sensors & actuators
A sensor value is useful only if it measures the right quantity under the actual operating conditions. An actuator likewise needs to match its signal and task. For new measuring points, replacement components or unclear feedback, NOVALUX structures your enquiry around the functional chain: process, component, electrical signal and controller interpretation.
Variable-frequency drives & drive systems
A variable-frequency drive must suit the motor, the driven load and the operating process. Replacement, adjustments or recurring alarms benefit from an organised review of device data, parameters and process requirements. NOVALUX is your contact for defining the drive task and a possible project scope clearly before changes are made.
Who is this service for?
- Machine operators
- Maintenance managers
- Businesses adapting sensors or drives
Possible scope of work
- Select sensors and actuators for the measurement task, signal type and installation environment.
- Consider variable-speed drives and motors alongside load, duty and existing controls.
- Record parameter versions, signal assignments and feedback traceably.
- Scope replacements and functional changes against electrical and mechanical interfaces.
- Plan functional trials with agreed permissions and suitable operating conditions.
What you receive
- A clearly described component or drive objective with the relevant interfaces.
- For confirmed work: traceable parameter or signal changes within the agreed scope.
- Defined tests for operation, feedback and the operating behaviour under consideration.
From enquiry to handover
Identify the component
The device type, its purpose and its existing integration are recorded.
Assess interaction
Electrical interfaces and process requirements need to match.
Plan verification
Test conditions, approvals and a return to the starting state are agreed.
What we need for your quotation
- Drive, motor and affected sensor nameplates
- Wiring diagrams, parameter backups and fault codes
- Load type, operating sequence and known mechanical constraints
Frequently asked questions
Is a replacement with the same power rating automatically suitable?
No. Signals, load characteristics, environmental conditions and existing protective functions also matter.
Can existing parameters be transferred?
Only after checking device compatibility and the meaning of individual settings.
What helps with an initial enquiry?
Nameplate information, a clear description of the issue and current drawings make the first assessment easier.
Can a drive be adjusted to improve the process?
Adjustments can be assessed when load behaviour, process limits and permissible operating conditions are known. A higher speed or different ramp is not automatically suitable for the machine.
