ABB in Croatia have provided a leading-edge solution consisting of two 1250 kVA PCS100 SFCs (Static Frequency Converters) to the shipyard Viktor Lenac in Rijeka, Croatia to help improve quality of power and reduce maintenance costs. Aside from reducing emissions, pollution and noise level, the solution is providing cost savings, by using grid power instead of diesel generator (DG) power.
ABB have released their new PCS100 Active Voltage Conditioner (AVC) series. The successful PCS100 AVC range has been upgraded with a new 400 V range. This is a fully rated product at 400 V and can be applied to 380, 400 and 415 V networks. Previously 400 VAC rated PCS100 AVCs were down rated versions of 480 VAC rated units. This provides an additional 20 percent kVA capacity at no cost.
Helping to implement the Swiss Energy Strategy for 2050: Pumped storage as a central element of the energy supply and grid stability ABB has commissioned the world's largest frequency converter at a pump storage plant for one of the leading hydroelectric power companies in Switzerland.
