PCS6000 wind converter for 5 MW offshore wind turbines

The PCS6000 Wind converter needs only one platform inside the tower with all necessary auxiliary components such as the water cooling system, grid filter and generator dv/dt filter. The very compact design allows access from all sides for service and maintenance. The converter system is controlled by the ABB AC 800PEC Programmable Logic Controller.1) All measurement and control connections from the control system to the medium-voltage compartment are isolated via fiber optic links. Only one pair of fiber optic links is necessary for the communication between the PCS6000 wind-converter control and the auxiliary cabinet for the cooling and filter functions. This ensures an operation of the system that is immune to disturbances caused by EMC. The IP54 (ingression protection) design of the cabinets assures durability in the face of condensation inside the tower. Care and attention is applied to the design of all components with regard to withstanding possible vibrations. To secure the safety of maintenance and service personnel, the converter has an earthing switch and fail-safe door interlocks.

ACS 6000 Medium voltage AC drives for control of 3 – 27 MW motors up to 3.3 kV

ABB’s ACS 6000 is a modular drive designed for the most demanding single-motor or multi-motor applications. The optimum configuration for each application is reached by combining the modules with minimum engineering effort resulting in lower investment costs and a smaller footprint. It is available with five sizes of inverter modules (3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 MVA).
