ABB provides high voltage motors and generators to save energy, improve processes, increase efficiency and lifespan of equipment, and meet new environmental requirements.
The brochure presents ABB's range of high‑voltage AC induction, synchronous and occasional DC motors used in power‑generation facilities. It discusses the challenges faced by plant operators and how ABB's motors are designed for long life, high efficiency, and reliable operation under conditions such as load rejections and voltage dips.
Additional sections describe typical motor applications (pumps, fans, compressors), available power ratings, ABB's support services—including maintenance planning, life‑extension treatments, the LEAP program, and condition monitoring—and recent technology developments such as variable‑speed drives and large‑capacity synchronous motors for carbon‑capture projects.
| Power rating (small coal) | Up to 2,000 kW / 2,700 hp |
|---|---|
| Power rating (large coal) | Up to 22,000 kW / 29,000 hp |
| Power rating (very large) | Up to 60,000 kW / 80,000 hp |
ABB offers assistance in planning maintenance, complete equipment upgrades, life‑extension treatments, the LEAP program for condition monitoring, and a worldwide network for spare‑part supply.
The brochure mentions AC induction motors, high‑voltage AC synchronous motors, and occasionally DC motors.
