TMdrive®-MVG
180 to 11,400 kVA
TMEIC GE recently released the TMdrive-MVG, a re-design of the TMdrive-MV for smaller size and lower cost applications. Featuring high-quality Japanese design and manufacture, the TMdrive-MVG can drive existing or new induction motors. This medium voltage ac-fed drive is designed for high efficiency and power friendly operation in a wide range of industrial applications.
High reliability, low-harmonic distortion, and high power factor operation are designed into the drive. The TMdrive-MVG is available for industrial power ratings up to 10 MW, in four voltage classes:
- 3.3 kV voltage class: 3,000 to 3,300 V ac, 18 pulse
- 6.6 kV voltage class: 6,000 to 6,600 V ac, 36 pulse
- 10 kV voltage class: 10,000 V ac, 54 pulse
- 11 kV voltage class: 11,000 V ac, 30 pulse
Design features of the TMdrive-MVG include:
- Conservative design using 1700 IGBTs
- High energy efficiency over 97% (design value)
- Diode rectifier ensures power factor greater than 95% in the typical speed control range
- Multiple level drive output waveform to the motor
- Designed to keep running after utility supply-transient voltage dropouts - up to 300 msec.
- Synchronous transfer to line option with no interruption to motor current
- Input isolation transformer inlcuded in the drive package
- Direct drive voltage output level
Applications for this medium voltage drive include large pumps, fans and compressors. Either induction or synchronous motors can be driven.
The TMDrive-MVG drive joins TMEIC GE’s family of XL55 and LX85 large drives. For more detailed information, visit the TMEIC GE site library, www.tmeic-ge.com.
