Variable Speed Drive Systems Based on Medium-Voltage Drives

 

 

Thanks to a long-term experience in power conversion, Converteam offers two reliable and mature electrical solutions based on Variable Speed Drives.

Our scope of supply includes the complete engineered systems:

Variable Speed Drive Systems with VSI Technology (MV7000) - up to 32MW

The MV7000 high-performance Medium-Voltage Drive is a Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) based on powerful press-pack IGBTs. It gives outstanding performance, excellent reliability, improved compactness and low operating costs.

In addition, this variable speed drive offers our customers additional benefits such as:
quality of supply of the driven motor, reduction of network interferences, ease of use and maintenance.

Our MV7000 drives feed our induction and synchronous motors (including high-speed motors) with high performances in all speed ranges and are designed to meet high-speed compressors requirements.

This solution is particularly adapted for gas transportation and storage, refinery processes, HDPE, LDPE units and subsea applications.

Variable Speed Drive Systems with LCI Technology (SD7000) - up to 100MW

This thyristor-based solution meets in particular very high power requirements with synchronous motors.

This variable speed drive, fitted with PECe controller, combines a state-of-the art control rack with a mature technology.

This solution is particularly adapted for LNG plants, large gas transportation and steam-crackers applications where high dynamic compressors performances are required.
