Benshaw’s state-of-the-art Modular Multi-Level (M2L) MV Drive product family is the latest innovation in medium voltage variable frequency drive market. This patented product is designed and developed to enhance reliability, improve safety, and reduce the total cost of the ownership.
Expansion of a Cryogenic plant in West Texas required installation of a 3500 HP, 4160 V medium voltage drive. Utilizing conventional all-indoor MV drive solutions available in the market made building a new PDC and bearing its high costs inevitable; eventually challenging the project feasibility.
If a standard product doesn’t fit your requirements, Benshaw’s design and engineering teams can help tailor a solution that does, no matter how complex or demanding the application.
The controls system at and old naval shipyard was obsolete and in need of updated controls, which included the complete control and protection of the main dewatering pump motors, rated at 1200 HP at 11.5KV. This is a six-stage transition and is a critical process to bring the motors up to speed while the load is accelerated gradually through speed and torque control, and essential for dry dock certification.
