WEG exhibits energy efficient solutions at Offshore Energy 2013
01/10/2013 WEG (UK) Ltd
WEG, a leading manufacturer of drive technology, automation equipment, power generation/ distribution solutions and electric motors, is exhibiting at Offshore Energy 2013, stand 11.035. Visitors to the stand can learn about WEG's energy efficient product portfolio as well as meeting experts to discuss the solutions WEG has for the Marine, Oil & Gas industries.One of the main highlights on WEG's stand is its modular low voltage (LV) water-cooled variable speed drive (VSD), CFW11W. The robust and easy-to-use drives are designed with advanced features, enabling users to optimise the operation of their motors, while being quick and easy to install and cost-effective to maintain. They are ideal for various processes onboard and especially for diesel-electric propulsion, where smooth control and fuel economy requirements play an important role in the highly competitive marine and offshore sector.
The LV VSD Power Module features a complete control board and HMI, uses Pulse Width Modulation technology (sinusoidal modulation), Vector Control, 32-bit RISC microprocessor, and is fitted with a three-phase IGBT power transistor output bridge. Users can put up to five VSDs in parallel, to achieve the desired current and power for their application.
In addition, WEG will be showing a range of controls and its W22 Premium Efficiency IE3 motors, which enable users to increase energy efficiencies significantly in their process, and reduce their total cost of ownership. The W22 Premium Efficiency IE3 motors gives outstanding performance across the full power range from 0.12 kW to 500kW. The three-phase induction motor meets the requirements of the most demanding marine users, giving reduced energy consumption, increased productivity, extended lifetime and lower maintenance.
WEG offers a complete package of energy efficient products. For more information on its controls and motors, and to meet WEG's experts, visit Stand 11.035, at Offshore Energy, or visit www.weg.net/uk.
