This paper first outlines the benefits of Medium Voltage Variable Frequency Drives (MV-VFD) compared to classical drivers or control methods (i.e. steam/gas turbines, hydraulic coupling and Direct-On-Line operation with, for example, valve/damper control). The paper then focuses on typical variable frequency drive applications in the sugar industry and also describes two real cases, namely a MV- VFD soft-starter application at Al Khaleej Sugar Refinery, Dubai, UAE and the replacement of inefficient steam turbines for cane mill drives at Compania Azucarera Hondurena S.A, Honduras, Central America. Next, the main selection criteria for a MV-VFD system are described and finally a state-of-the-art example of such a product complying with the above-described selection criteria will be presented.

ABB provided the mine hoisting system at Pyhäsalmi Mine. The system is used to transport ore from underground to the surface. In 1996, Outokumpu decided to proceed with deep mining and built a new head frame and a new mine hoist system. ABB's mine hoisting system played a crucial role in this project.

ABB offers an auxiliary power upgrade for its ACS 1000 medium voltage drive to further increase the drive's reliability and availability. This upgrade improves the reliability and availability of the ACS 1000, with longer auxiliary power loss ride through capabilities and easy troubleshooting.

This document provides environmental information about the ACS 600 product family from ABB Oy Drives, including product package, materials, use, disposal, and manufacturing.

ABB's medium voltage drives in power generation industry enable more efficient and reliable plant operation. These drives improve the heat rate and net power output of power plants, reducing operating costs.

ABB’s ACS 6000 drives provide speed control for the power train test benches at CENER, Spain’s National Renewable Energy Center.

The ACS100/140 NEMA1/IP21 Enclosure Kit provides a NEMA1/IP21 housing for the ACS100 and ACS 140 IP20 protected chassis units. The NEMA1/IP21 enclosure kit consists of a metal back plate with a conduit plate and a plastic cover. Additionally the kit includes parts that are needed if an optional RFI-filter is used. The drive heatsink is flange mounted to the back plate so that the heatsink fins are outside the enclosure. The assembled NEMA1/IP21 drive unit can be mounted to a vertical surface using a DIN rail or the mounting holes and slots in the heatsink.
