Plc Drives By Microhub Automation

Backed by a team of diligent experts, we have been able to trade and supply a wide range of PLC Drives in Vapi INA, Gujarat, India.

Drives and control supplier that could provide a highly configurable drives platform, and chose drives from ABB's ACS800 range, with control provided by ABB's AC500 PLCs. The high degree of modularity of both the controller and drives, the availability of sophisticated PLC development tools in the form of ABB's Automation Builder engineering software suite - together with valuable local programming and HMI capabilities of the drives themselves - provided the economy and versatility of platform that VARD ELECTRO was looking for. These system components also provided a number of tangible performance advantages for this particular motor control application. They include fast real-time control updates and low harmonics power conversion of the drives, and compactness that comes from liquid cooling - an extremely valuable feature for the packed OSV engine rooms housing the main engines and thrusters.

For each vessel of the six PSVs which are being built in Japan, ABB is supplying five PLC-controlled variable-speed drives to control a total of over 6MW of power: two 2MW drive systems for the main engines, two 730kW drives for bow thrusters, and one 730kW drive for a dual-fed bow thruster that is able to survive the failure of either of the vessel's two power generators.
