OPAL MV
Medium Voltage Digital Soft Starter 60-2200A, 1500-15000V
Marine, Offshore, Oil & Gas
- LNG & LPG pumps (mainly in multi-start application)
- Water & ballast pumps
- Refrigeration chillers & compressors
- Hydraulic pumps & power packs
- Thrusters
- Main propulsion motors
- Unique protection for corrosive environments
- Generator ready - auto frequency tracking, sustains
variations of 45-65Hz while starting
Application Specific Software
Starting From Diesel Generator
Wide 45-66 Hz auto-tracking frequency to overcome voltage and frequency instability. Designed especially for marine and off-shore industries, or
any system operating from a generator.
Synchronous Motor Starting
Optional module allows you to utilize your existing synchronous motor.
Pump and Special Load Control
Eliminate Water Hammer During Stopping: The pump control feature enables selection between
three voltage ramp-down curves or a torque curve, preventing a stall condition which eliminates water
hammer.
Eliminate Over Pressure During Starting: The pump control also enables selection between three
voltage ramp-up curves, as well as a torque curve, to reduce peak torque. Current ramp is available
for special loads.
OPAL MV APPLICATIONS
Industrial
- Pumps
