Heavy Industry Application

These are suitable for controlling DC motors used in heavy industry applications such as metal working, steel mills, mining, or the cement, rubber and plastics industries. The new control technology drive.web allows the drives to be controlled over the Ethernet without the need for a PLC or supervisory computer.

The DC drives of Sprint Electric’s PLX range are available as two quadrant or regenerative four quadrant types. All models ranging from 650 to 2250A (980 KW/1320 HP) are offered with two AC busbar position options: Either top entry or bottom entry.

In retrofit installations the two options make it easier to use the existing cabling and will save the cost of adding more expensive copper cabling. In new designs, the engineer has the choice of wiring options, which save money and space when designing new control panels.
