Frequency Converter SD2M Turbo

Standard converters in the higher power classes typically use the well-known technology of two-level pulse width modulation (PWM) with max. 8 kHz switching frequency. In most high-speed applications, this requires additional components such as LC filters or chokes to minimize the additional losses in the engine.

Applications

In the field of turbomachines, the system's efficiency can be continuously improved by increasing the system speed or omitting the gear.

Compressed Air Production
Due to their design, a large number of technologies in the field of waste energy usage or mechanical energy storage require high-speed motors and generators

Wastewater Treatment
Rotary atomization processes, e.g. applied for the production of milk powder or flue gas treatment, require high circumferential speeds. Therefore, it is necessary to use matching high-speed motors instead of low-speed standard motors.

Atomizer
Refrigeration units with turbo or centrifugal compressors with higher power ranges operate with high speeds. Frequency converters by SIEB & MEYER easily provide the required speeds and their control method ensures an exceptionally low rotor heating.

Frequency Converter SD2M Turbo

The Booster

SIEB & MEYER frequency inverters are specially designed for high-speed applications and use the three-level technology - also called multi-level technology - which is very advantageous in these applications.

As a rule, no motor filter elements are required when using our SD2M Turbo inverter series. This is due not only to the three-level technology, but also to the fact that we supply PWM switching frequencies of up to 16 kHz as standard. The combination results in a significantly improved motor current quality, which extremely reduces the unwanted rotor losses - by up to 90 %!
