Drive Topology
Its simple two level power cell design takes away the complexity of multilevel architecture
and makes it into a clear and easy understandable technology. This saves your
maintenance cost because the crew will easily understand Altivar 6000.
One of the core component of ATV6000 is the “Power cell”. This “Power cell” is a single
phase, two level output switching device, supplied by a 700/720 V low voltage winding of a
transformer.
The big advantage of this is, that the switching elements are state-of-the-art LV
components. By putting this AC - supplies in series, higher voltages are achieved. The
number of “Power cells” determines the output voltage. Every cell provides a small step of
motor supply, resulting in a smooth waveform. Phase shifting can be done on the secondary
windings of transformer, allowing an elimination of harmonics of input.
The drive regulation system and control system are installed at front of the drive to provide
an optimized footprint. The transformer and cell section can be separated for easy
installation.
As an option the adequate cooling fans on top of the cabinet can be supplied by an
additional secondary windings of the integrated transformer to avoids additional 3phase
supplies for the drive
Schneider Electric offers this transformer in a standard efficiency as well as in increased
high efficiency.
