Dimensioning

DriveSize

Quality dimensioning

DriveSize is a PC program for helping the user to select an optimal converter and options, especially in those cases

where a straightforward selection from a catalogue is not possible. Documents about the dimensioning based on actual load.

The default values make DriveSize simple to use, but the user is provided with many options for drive selection. The short

cut keys make drive selection easy while still honouring the relatively complicated rules.

A manual selection mode is also supported.

DriveSize is currently used by more than 1000 engineers globally.

DriveSize is for drive system components– DCS converter modules– DCS enclosed converters– Group drives (line-ups)– Drive options

DriveSize features– Select an drive unit, incoming unit – Calculate duty load cycles for converters– Supply dimensioning results in graphical and numerical format– Print and save the result

Aluminium applications

• AC 800PEC Unit controller ↔ AC 800PEC Master controller communication via PEC - PEC fiberptical link (100 μs)

• Units can be controlled independent from master

• Allows emergency operation (full smooth current control, in emergency mode, without AC 800PEC,available only in combination with DCS800 premagnetization)

• Predictive maintenance features can be included

• Open circuit-, over current-, under voltage-,over voltage protection packages included in software

- A newly developed OPC (open circuit protection) stand-alone PLC (programmable logic controller), working in combination with the AC 800PEC Master controller functions or as

standalone protection, in case of the master panel maintenance

• Controlled shutdown in an event, not needing an immediate trip → less disturbance for your processes

• Potline load swing detection and load shedding function integrated in application software

• On Load Tap Changer fast tapping function in order to prevent DC current overload during disturbances

• A special potline-to-earth resistance measure ment system based on an AC 800PEC family available (PERMS)

• Maximum power regulation

- To prevent over-shooting of power consumption and to support your power generators

• Maximum DC voltage regulation for stabilizing your process
