Medium Voltage AC Drives Selection Guide PowerFlex 7000 Direct-to-Drive Technology Air-Cooled Liquid-Cooled

POWERFLEX 7000 MEDIUM VOLTAGE AC DRIVES Improve efficiency and maximize profitability with a single solution for all your motor control applications from 200 hp to 34,000 hp (150 kw to 25,400 kw). The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage drive enables soft-starting and variable-speed control of processes with high power demands, to reduce energy costs, maintenance and motor wear. The advanced power semiconductor technology reduces component count to the lowest of any medium voltage drive available, translating to increased savings and reliability, less downtime and fewer spare parts. These drives use intelligent motor control strategies to further your investment, using communication software and programmability to monitor and control your processes. Our entire product line delivers virtually perfect current and voltage waveforms to allow the use of standard or existing motors and motor cables. All PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage drives adhere to the applicable standards from NEC, IEC, NEMA, UL and CSA. Maximum uptime, ease-of-use and lowest total cost of ownership is what the PowerFlex 7000 delivers. Direct-to-Drive Technology Reduce the cost, size and weight of your medium voltage drive system with the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 7000 with Direct-to-Drive technology. This is the first and only technology that allows you to directly connect a medium voltage drive to utility power without the requirement of an isolation transformer. Isolation transformers with multiple secondary windings are required for traditional AC drives to address line-side harmonic concerns and common mode voltage. However, typical isolation transformers are large, heavy, costly, complex and inefficient. Direct-to-Drive technology combines an Active Front End (AFE) rectifier to dramatically lower line-side harmonics and a patented DC link inductor to address common mode voltage at its source. By addressing harmonics and common mode voltage, the isolation transformer becomes redundant. This reduces system complexity to maximize uptime and increases system efficiency to lower operational costs. Exceptional output voltage and current waveforms, true of our entire product line, make this ideal for retrofit applications and allow the use of standard motors for new applications. Air-Cooled, PowerFlex 7000 Enhance motor control and increase energy efficiency on motor applications from 200 hp to 5500 hp (150kW to 4100kW) with the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 7000 air-cooled medium voltage AC variable frequency drives. Three configurations (Direct-to-Drive, AFE and 18-pulse) allow optimal flexibility for a variety of installations. 2

DIRECT-TO-DRIVE TECHNOLOGY Reduce Capital, Installation and Operating Costs Direct-to-Drive technology can: Reduce capital costs: No isolation transformer purchase required. Reduce installation costs: No need for an isolation transformer protection relay, a dv/dt filter, sine filter, motor terminator or special line-side or motor-side power cables. Reduce shipping costs: A smaller, lighter drive system is easier to handle and less costly to ship. Reduce operating costs: Higher system efficiency and inherent regenerative capability that can return power to the utility. Reduce maintenance costs: Low parts count and many components are common between the rectifier and inverter. Reduce Size and Weight of Drive System Reduced drive system size and weight are a strategic advantage for industries world-wide, where the use of transformers and control room space is challenging and expensive, such as on offshore oil and gas platforms. PowerFlex 7000 with Direct-to-Drive technology systems are: Typically smaller and lighter than drive technologies using isolation transformers. Perfect for retrofit, process improvement or energy-savings projects with existing motors, switches and control rooms. Intelligent Motor Control All PowerFlex 7000 drives provide Intelligent Motor Control capabilities such as: Communications Software Operator interface software monitors a variety of drive parameters and trends real-time information to help predict and prevent downtime. Power Regeneration Inherent regeneration provides both the most efficient motor stopping method and the ability to regenerate power back to the distribution system. Synchronous Bypass Synchronous transfer and bypass capabilities optimize the efficient control of motors by allowing one drive to control a multi-motor system. While the drive controls one motor, critical process information from each motor is monitored independently. 4

Innovative Design Historically, medium voltage motor AC drives (2.4 kv to 6.9 kv), use power topologies that generate common-mode voltage, which can cause premature failure of the motor winding insulation. Multi-pulse isolation transformers are typically used to address this common-mode voltage stress and also to mitigate harmonics. The innovative PowerFlex 7000 with Direct-to- Drive technology connects the power supply directly to the medium voltage drive without an isolation transformer. Leading edge technology combines three innovations to achieve transformerless Direct-to-Drive technology: the Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristor (SGCT) in both the inverter and rectifier allow operation of high switching frequency to minimize switching losses; the active front end (AFE) rectifier used at the input stage; and the common mode choke to block common mode voltage. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the input current is within IEEE 519-1992 and most global harmonic guidelines in virtually every system. Current and voltage waveforms are near sinusoidal, minimizing voltage stress on the motor winding, even if connected through long cables. The Active Front End (AFE) Rectifier To reduce harmonics, the active front end uses active switching and Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) and provides near-unity power factor. Common Mode Voltage Protection The integrated common mode choke provides a very high impedance to the common mode current and mitigates motor neutral-to-ground voltage. The Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristor (SGCT) The Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristor (SGCT) is an integration of the power semiconductor and its gate drive to achieve superior pulse-width modulation switching patterns that significantly reduce line current harmonics and minimize snubber requirements and switching losses. 2286 mm (90 inches) 3000 kg (6600 Ibs) 3100 mm (122 inches) 2640 kg (5800 Ibs) Dimension comparison between and 18-Pulse drive with isolation transformer (left) and a PowerFlex 7000 drive with Direct-to-Drive technology (right) 2400 mm (94.5 inches) 2950 kg (6500 Ibs) 5

AIR-COOLED COMPACT PACKAGING PowerFlex 7000 Air-Cooled Drives Increase energy efficiency on motor applications from 200 hp to 5500 hp (150 kw to 4100 kw) and supply voltages from 2400 to 6900. Enhance motor control and increase system reliability with the low component count, design simplicity and 6500 V Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristor (SGCT) power semiconductor switches that help reduce downtime and spare parts stock. Maintenance is simple and quick with the patented PowerCage inverter and rectifier modules that allow SGCT replacement in under ten minutes. Configuration #1 - Direct-to-Drive Technology Direct-to-Drive technology directly connects to the utility power without an isolation transformer. On new or existing motors, Direct-to-Drive technology eliminates unnecessary motor filtering and common mode voltage and saves control room space with a drive system smaller and lighter than a drive that requires a transformer. Installation costs are minimized by eliminating the need for a transformer protection relay, a dv/dt filter, sine filter or motor terminator and special cables. Available with or without an integral input starter. Configuration #2 - AFE Rectifier The AFE rectifier is available with an integral isolation transformer (up to 160A in most voltages) or configured for connection to a separately mounted isolation transformer (all sizes). This allows for considerable size reduction and the capability of stepping down from higher distribution voltages. Configuration #3-18 Pulse Rectifier The 18 Pulse rectifier uses an externally mounted isolation transformer. This allows for considerable size reduction and the capability of stepping down from higher distribution voltages. Indoor dry type, outdoor oil-filled or cast coil transformers can be used. 6

LIQUID-COOLED HIGH HORSEPOWER PowerFlex 7000 Liquid-Cooled Drives Reduce energy use on motors from 3000 to 8500 hp (2240 to 6340 kw), at 4160 to 6900V nominal supply voltage ratings. Liquid-cooling results in a more efficient transfer of heat than air-cooling, with approximately 90% of the heat removed from the control room via a heat exchanger, so control room air-conditioning costs are drastically reduced. The closed-loop liquid-cooling system with liquid-to-air or liquid-to-liquid style heat exchangers and an integral pump cabinet with redundant pump capability increases reliability. Maintenance is simple with the patented PowerCage converter modules that let you replace power devices in less than ten minutes. You can also reduce installation costs by using a central cabling cabinet for the complete drive package. Liquid-cooled drives are also more tolerant of higher elevations and higher ambient temperatures in the control room. 7

EXTENDED HORSEPOWER To accommodate higher horsepower applications up to 34,000 hp (25,400 kw), Rockwell Automation has designed a modular drive system that allows you to add drives until the drive power matches the application requirements. This system allows continued operation even with a component failure, is suitable for hot back-up applications and has an option for control redundancy. A hub module and ControlLogix processors are used to coordinate the modular drive system operation. The higher horsepower configurations offer these features and benefits: Compatible with 3-phase or 6-phase motors. Continues to function at reduced capacity in the event of a component failure. Suitable for hot back-up applications. PanelView Plus system control touch screen with color interface. Integral motor protection scheme. On-board graphical diagnostic trending. Up to four drive modules can be used together in one system. 8

OPERATOR INTERFACE EASY-TO-USE INTERFACE TERMINAL Available in a variety of languages, everything about the PowerFlex 7000 operator interface terminal is user friendly right from the greeting on the opening screen. The terminal is designed for the greatest ease of use for start-up, monitoring and troubleshooting.

The standard operator device cluster includes, start, stop, and emergency stop pushbuttons, local/remote selector switch and local speed potentiometer. Drive Identity Module Pre-loads Order Data A drive identity module, unique to every PowerFlex 7000 drive, captures order data from our automated business systems. The order data provides information to the drive firmware about specific drive hardware and application details. This results in less set-up time at the end site, saving you time and money. 9

SGCT POWER SEMICONDUCTOR The PowerFlex 7000 uses 6.5kV rated Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristors (SGCT) and has the fewest number of inverter switching devices of any MV drive topology. The power structure is fuseless, inherently regenerative, and utilizes a current limiting DC link inductor. The result is a simple, rugged product with very low component count, and optimum reliability. The unique characteristics of the SGCT and the PowerFlex 7000 drive topology make it possible to cost-effectively apply this versatile component into both the PWM inverter and PWM active front end rectifier. Low Parts Count The PowerFlex 7000 requires only six inverter SGCTs (at 2300V) while other drives using IGBTs or IGCTs require from 18 to 36 power semiconductor switches. The superior characteristics of the SGCT combined with the fewest number of components makes the PowerFlex 7000 drive inherently more reliable. SGCT - The Ideal Power Semiconductor Switch for MV Drives The Symmetrical Gate Commutated Thyristor (SGCT) with integrated gate drive, high switching frequency, and double-sided cooling is an ideal power semiconductor switch for MV drive applications. Its compact and efficient inverter design results from a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) switching pattern for the SGCTs and is optimized for the lowest possible conduction and switching losses. The SGCT has a non-rupture, non-arc failure mode, meaning the fault is contained within the device. This ensures minimum mean-time-to-repair (MTTR). Other MV drives using IGBTs, can have rupture/arc failure modes that can lead to significant (MTTR) to rebuild the drive. Rupture, arc Rupture, arc 10

POWERCAGE AIR & LIQUID-COOLED DESIGNS Innovative PowerCage Reduce mean-time-to-repair (MTTR) time with fast and simple power semiconductor device change-out. The patented PowerCage converter modules in every PowerFlex 7000 drive house the SGCT power semiconductors in a compact, modular package that has fewer components and faster semiconductor device change-out than any other MV drive.

Allows power device change-out in less than ten minutes. No need to drain the cooling system to change a device. Air-Cooled Liquid-Cooled 11

POWER QUALITY LOWER LINE HARMONICS Line Current Line Voltage (V L-L ) Most MV drives on the market today reduce line-side harmonics by increasing the rectifier pulse number through parallel rectifier bridges and phase-shifting transformers. These drives have a higher component count, higher complexity and higher number of connections. The PowerFlex 7000 drive offers several solutions for lower line harmonics. The Direct-to-Drive feature mitigates line current harmonics to levels compliant to IEEE 519-1992, EN61000-2-4 and G5/4. Active Front End (AFE) Rectifier The AFE rectifier meets IEEE 519-1992 and most global standard Harmonic Guidelines in the vast majority of cases, provides near unity power factor, and optimizes drive performance. This power quality solution is also available with an isolation transformer when stepping down from a higher distribution voltage, resulting in maximum flexibility. l8-pulse Rectifier meets IEEE 519-1992 Harmonic Guidelines in the majority of cases at the primary of the drive isolation transformer. Compatible with Standard Motors Motor-friendly waveforms have been the trademark of Allen-Bradley MV drives since their introduction in 1990. All PowerFlex 7000 MV drive configurations have near sinusoidal output current and voltage waveforms at all speeds and loads, are compatible with standard induction or synchronous motors without derating and do not require an inverter duty motor. 12

No Additional Heating or Voltage Stress to Motor Insulation Compared to Fixed Speed Operation The PWM switching pattern in the PowerFlex 7000 reduces the harmonics going to the motor, especially at lower operating frequencies. The PWM pattern works in combination with a small integral capacitor to reduce the large order harmonics at higher frequencies. The result is no additional motor heating or voltage stress to motor insulation compared to fixed speed operation. Virtually Unlimited Motor Cable Distance While some variable frequency drives have limitations in motor cable distance due to high switching frequencies or capacitive coupling, the cable distance with the PowerFlex 7000 is virtually unlimited. This technology is capable of controlling motors as far away as 15 kilometers (9.2 miles) from the drive. Quiet, Smooth Motor Operation For a quieter, safer work environment, the PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage drive operates the motor with less audible noise than across-the-line, due to the quality of voltage and current waveforms, optimal voltage balancing and reduced speed. The Direct-to-Drive feature mitigates common mode voltage and does not produce dv/dt or reflected wave voltage stress on motors. Motor Voltage (V L-L ) Motor Current 13

Bulletin 7000 Medium Voltage Drives Topology Topology Rectifier Design Selection AFE Rectifier There are two basic rectifier configurations (AFE and 18-Pulse) offered as options for the PowerFlex 7000. It is advantageous when selecting a rectifier design to have a good understanding of what the customer s needs and limitations are with regards to power factor, space requirements, harmonic specifications, and cost, etc. Both options offer efficiency, motor protection, energy savings, and optimization of power quality in varying degrees. Both of these options comply with the recommended IEEE 519-1992 requirements regarding harmonic distortion in virtually every power system. An Active Front End (AFE) rectifier is shown in Figure 1. This is a particularly attractive option since it does not require an isolation transformer with multiple secondary windings to meet IEEE 519-1992 requirements. This results in a drive system that has the highest efficiency, simplest configuration, and offers the lowest total cost of ownership. The typical drive efficiency rating at full load full speed is 97.5%. Most available technologies in today s Medium Voltage market require a multi-winding transformer to mitigate by phase shifting the undesirable harmonic distortion in the transformer secondary windings. Depending on the topology, the transformer can have up to 15 sets of secondary windings. This compounds the complexity of the system. The AFE rectifier uses a PWM switching pattern that complies with similar rules as the inverter. The pattern used is a 7-pulse Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) pattern that eliminates the 5th, 7th and 11th harmonics. The input capacitors are designed to reduce the current harmonics of the higher order. The filter resonant frequency is placed below 300Hz where no residual harmonics exist. The filter transfer function technique is used to place the filter break frequency in a region where no harmonics are present. This prevents the excitation of system harmonic frequencies. Other factors that are considered when designing the filter are the input power factor and the requirement on Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of input current and voltage waveforms. The AFE rectifier requires only a three-phase input from the customer s power supply. While an isolation transformer is not required to address harmonics, a transformer can be configured to reduce the higher system voltage to operating voltage level, based on the variable frequency drive and motor operation voltage (see Figure 1).

Bulletin 7000 Medium Voltage Drives Topology Direct-to-Drive (AFE Rectifier with DTD DC link) Figure 2 Direct-to-Drive option and its input current/voltage waveforms 18-Pulse Rectifier An 18-pulse phase-controlled rectifier is shown in Figure 3. In an 18-pulse configuration, IEEE 519-1992 requirements regarding harmonic distortion are met without the need for passive filters. However, a multi-winding isolation transformer is required to mitigate the low order harmonics by incorporating phase shifting principles. The resulting line current and voltage are shown in Figure 3. This option is simple, highly efficient, and easy to use involving series rectifiers and only three sets of secondary windings on the isolation transformer. Due to the requirement for the isolation transformer, this option has a larger footprint that requires additional control room space (for indoor transformer option).

Bulletin 7000 Medium Voltage Drives Topology The AFE rectifier switching pattern uses a similar control algorithm to the inverter. The pattern used is a 7-pulse selective harmonic elimination (SHE) pattern, which eliminates the 5th, 7th and 11th harmonics. Figure 4 shows the typical rectifier switching pattern with 7-pulse with a single phase representation. This switching pattern is repeated for all three phase shifting 120 electrical degrees, resulting in a 42-pulse overall rectifier switching pattern. The duration of the on-state time will then determine the controlled rectifier voltage to the DC link. Figure 4 Typical Active Front End Rectifier Switching Pattern The drive has a defined firing and applies the above firing pattern to three phases. The drive rectifier has the following firing order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 with the bridge hardware configuration as outlined in Figure 5. As shown, the 4160 V rectifier uses two (2) - 6500 volt power devices in series to achieve the optimum electrical peak inverse blocking margin of 13000 volts for each leg.

Bulletin 7000 Medium Voltage Drives Topology The input capacitors connected at the input with the rectifier are designed to reduce the higher frequency current harmonics. The inductance/capacitor resonant frequency is placed below 300 Hz where no characteristic harmonics exist. This prevents the excitation of system harmonic frequencies. The capacitor is selected to provide high input power factor. In most cases, a line reactor can be used to provide the required design impedance, giving additional current limiting features to a line-side short circuit fault. When operating from a power source that does not require voltage matching to the drive rating, a simple line reactor configuration can be adopted.

A current Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of approximately 5.0 % is achieved. The voltage distortion is based on the customer s maximum short circuit rating (I SC ) and maximum demand load current (I L ). With a ratio of 20, the voltage distortion will be less than 3%.
