would need to know what size of motor but these are easy to use and cheap.

wire with a pot and anybody can vary the speed without accessing the drive parameters (obviously if that would be good for your application), i normally do this to stop operators bothering me to change conveyor speeds.

Altivar have got to be one of the easiest to set up especially if you follow Pmans advice and install a speed pot. I always used a 10 turn 10K pot with a numerical dial.
