Diode converters for electrolysis
General characteristics
- Rated currents: from 10 kA to 100 kA;
- Rated voltage: from 50 to 460V;
- The power unit – diode rectifier is implemented as 3-phase bridge circuit with 12-pulse rectification mode.
Structural design
- The product consists of the following cabinets:
– Rectifying cabinets;
– Rectifier control cabinet;
– Remote control cabinet;
– Automatic transfer switch cabinet;
– Automated Workstation (AWS).
- Devices of local control and adjustment on the control cabinet door:
– Electrolysis current and network current devices;
– Current devices in each block;
– Console terminal;
– Tap changing buttons for NLTC (OLTC)
– Lamps: “Power Supply”, “Readiness”, “Warning”, “Accident”;
– State lamps NLTC (OLTC).
- Devices of local control and adjustment on the remote control cabinet door:
– DC voltage device;
– Console terminal;
– Lamps: “Warning”, “Accident” for each device;
- Special aspects of AWS:
– The rectifiers control is fulfilled through a special software shell;
– The use of fiber-optic cable enables installation of AWS at a considerable distance from the converters and provides high noise immunity;
- AWS is connected to the remote control cabinet via ProfiBus network.
