- Five option slots, with three flexible slots to easily add or reconfigure cards to suit process needs, like ENETR for Ethernet, 13TCOMMP1 for Profibus, Encoder Cards, I/O Module, etc.
- Simplified and intuitive local control, monitoring and diagnostics with a 10-inch (254 mm) color touch screen HIM that supports multiple languages
- Real-time alerts are available to monitor the device health
- Extensive input power monitoring functionality for kW, kVA, kVAR, elapsed kWh, MWh and power factor
- Quick and secure flash-over-fiber firmware updates for all main control boards and power cells from a single file
- More comprehensive and faster troubleshooting with Forensic Data Recorder functionality
PowerFlex 6000T drives are well suited for all-purpose, non-regenerative applications such as fans, pumps, mills, conveyors and compressors. They are an ideal solution motor control applications from 100...11,000 kW (150...15,000 Hp) and for motors rated from 2.3...11 kV.
Air-cooled PowerFlex 6000T drives are designed to maximize energy efficiency by enabling soft-starting and variable-speed control in normal-duty and heavy-duty applications.
To achieve low input harmonics and near-unity power factor, the drives use a Cascaded “H’” Bridge topology. This topology combines an integrally mounted phase-shifting isolation transformer with series-connected power cells for each phase.
PowerFlex 6000T AC drives are available in many configurations based on motor voltage.
- Multiple control modes, including flux vector control – featuring up to 150% starting torque with an encoder
- Simple, air-cooled design at all voltage and power ratings
- Eco design main cooling fans provide higher efficiency and reduces losses
- Integrally mounted multi-pulse isolation transformer helps ensure low line-side harmonics
- Automatic power cell bypass helps minimize downtime in your critical applications
- Common modular power cells designed for easy removal, minimizing Mean Time To Repair
- Conserve space with secondary pre-charge support housed within the existing footprint
PowerFlex 7000 AC drives
PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage AC drives deliver flexibility and high-power performance in a single solution for motor control applications from 150…6300 kW (200...8500 Hp), rated 2.4...6.6 kV.To help reduce energy costs and motor wear, PowerFlex 7000 drives enable soft-starting and variable-speed control of processes with high power demands. Our portfolio provides virtually perfect output current and voltage waveforms to allow the use of standard or existing motors and motor cables.
High performance control, power regeneration, and arc flash resistance:
- EtherNet/IP communications provide full integration with Logix control platform
- Choose a configuration with Direct-to-Drive™ technology and connect a motor directly to the drive without an isolation transformer
- Features a touchscreen interface to monitor and control your processes
- PowerCage™ inverter and rectifier modules allow SGCT replacement in under 10 minutes
- Sync-transfer architecture lets one VFD control multiple motors
- Provides power regeneration capabilities without additional hardware. Puts energy back to the utility grid. Regenerative braking eliminates the need for braking resistors
- Supports motor cable length up to 30 km (18 mi)
- ArcShield™ arc-resistant enclosures
The PowerFlex 7000 drive portfolio
Air-cooled drives
For motors from 150…6000 kW (200…8000 Hp) at 2.4...6.6 kV. This drive offers different frame sizes and heat sink or heat pipe configurations to accommodate various power ranges.
Liquid-cooled drives
For motors from 2240…6340 kW (3000…8500 Hp*) at 4.16...6.6 kV. This option uses a closed-loop liquid-cooling system with liquid-to-air or liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger options and provides redundant pumps for optimal reliability.
