Key functions and features
High power density and low loss: Advanced IGCT chip packaging technology is adopted to achieve high rated current and voltage output within a limited volume, while reducing switch losses by more than 30% compared to traditional thyristors, greatly improving system energy utilization efficiency, especially suitable for industrial equipment in long-term high load carriers.
High speed switch and dynamic response: The turn-on and turn off time are controlled in microseconds, which can quickly respond to system control instructions, effectively suppress current and voltage fluctuations, avoid impact on the power grid and backend equipment, and ensure the stable operation of the converter system.
Strong anti-interference and reliability: The module housing is made of high-temperature resistant and corrosion-resistant ceramic insulation material, with integrated overvoltage, overcurrent, and overheat protection circuits inside. It can work reliably under complex working conditions such as strong electromagnetic interference and sudden voltage fluctuations, with an average time between failures (MTBF) of over 100000 hours.
Flexible system integration: Supports seamless integration with ABB ACS8000 series high-voltage inverters, DVC6000 series controllers, and other products, while reserving standardized communication interfaces (such as Modbus TCP, Profinet) for easy linkage with factory automation systems, enabling remote monitoring and parameter adjustment.
Convenient maintenance design: adopting a modular plug-in structure, module replacement can be completed without disassembling the entire converter cabinet; Built in status monitoring sensors can provide real-time feedback on key data such as temperature and current. Through diagnostic software, potential faults can be alerted in advance, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
