Danfoss VLT 12-pulse drive Fact sheet

VLT® 12-pulse drive

Robust and cost effective harmonic solution for the higher power range. The Danfoss VLT® 12-pulse drive offers reduced harmonics for demanding industry applications above 250 kW.

The VLT® 12-pulse is a high efficiency variable frequency converter which is built with the same modular design as the popular 6-pulse VLT® drives. It is offered with similar drive options and accessories and can be configured according to customer need.

Together with the needed 30°-phase shifting transformer the solution provides durability and reliability at a low cost.

Under ideal grid conditions the solution eliminates the 5th, 7th, 17th and 19th harmonics and results in a THiD of around 12% at full load.

The needed transformer makes this solution ideal for applications where stepping down from medium voltage is required or where isolation from the grid is needed.

The Danfoss VLT® 12-pulse drive provides harmonic reduction without adding capacitive or inductive components which often require network analysis to avoid potential system resonance problems.

VLT® MCT 10 Setup Software

VLT® MCT 10 offers advanced programming functionality for all Danfoss drive products, greatly reducing programming and set-up time.

VLT® MCT 10 Basic (available free of charge on www.danfoss.com) allows access to a finite number of drives with limited functionality. The advanced edition, offering a higher level of functionality, is available from your Danfoss sales partner.

VLT® MCT 31 Harmonics Calculation Software

With VLT® MCT 31 you can determine whether harmonics will be an issue in your installation when drives are added.

VLT® MCT 31 estimates the benefits of adding various harmonic mitigation solutions from the Danfoss product portfolio and calculates system harmonic distortion.

From www.danfoss.com you can download the free tool VLT® Harmonic Calculation MCT 31.
