High Voltage Solid State Soft Starter

The HPMV is a third generation, Medium Voltage, digital Medium voltage motor soft starter, designed for use with standard asynchronous and synchronous motors. This highly sophisticatedsoft starter ensures smooth, step-less acceleration and deceleration, eliminatingcurrent and mechanical shocks on motor and load. The HPMV may be supplied aschassis type or a complete system including Line and/or Bypass Contactors. Addibleoptions are Load Break Switch, Fuses, Motor Protection Relay, etc.

Advantages at a Glance :

  

Innovative low voltage test mode - full testing with a small L.V motor using standard built in features

Advanced Electronic Potential Transformer utilizing Patent Pending "wireless" fiber-optic firing system

Each starter is tested for Partial Discharge (Korona) ensuring long term reliability

Power factor capacitors can be connected directly to the upstream contactor

Heavy duty design at 50 ambient temperature

Reduced inrush current and mechanical shock

Third generation microprocessor circuitry

Soft, stepless acceleration & deceleration

Unique starting & stopping characteristics

Sophisticated motor protection package

User friendly, easy setting and operation

IP30-standard, higher protection by special order

Two optional methods of delivery: Chassis type for self assembly or Complete system

RS485 Communication with MODBUS, PROFIBUS protocols (others - upon request)

Wide 45-65Hz Auto-tracking frequency range combining special software with unique hardware arrangement (designed for Marine, Offshore and Generators operating under continuous frequency variation)

Torque and current starting and stopping characteristics.

Pump control software.      Starting & Stopping :  

Soft start and soft stop

Current limit

Torque & Current Control ramps

Pump Control characteristics

Pulse (kick) start

Tacho/encoder feedback (option)

Dual Adjust - 2 start/stop characteristics for varying loads, two speed motors, etc.  Soft starting, Soft Stopping and Final Torque of an HRVS-DN utilizing our infamous "Pump Control Program"       Setting & Supervision:

Historical Trip Event Recorder (10 Event conditions) Control Inputs & Outputs:  

Control voltage: 110-120, 220-240VAC / 50-60Hz or 110 - 220VDC to be specified

Separate inputs for Start, Stop (Emergency) and Soft Stop

Two programmable External fault inputs - will stop the motor 2 sec. After the contact closes

Aux. Contacts - three C/O relays, 8A, 250V, 2000VA:          Immediate Relay - changes position upon start signal, with adjustable On & Off delays.          Returns to original position upon Voltage Outage, Fault, Stop signal and Soft stop signal          at the end of soft stopping process. It can also be configured as a "Shear-pin Alarm" contact.          End of Acceleration Relay - operates upon completion of starting process, with adjustable          On delay. Returns to original position upon Voltage outage, Fault, Stop and Soft Stop signals.          Fault Relay - can be programmed as:          Fault - changes position upon Fault, returns to original position upon Reset.          Fault-Fail-Safe - changes position upon control voltage connection, returns upon fault. 

Typical Applications:

  

Fans and centrifuges
