SILCOVERT TN 3300V CONVERTER
A single converter with maximum adaptability. A NPC type, Voltage Source, IGBT inverter with both Diode Front End and Active Front End configurations.
Our standard power ranges and sizes are economical solutions that can be installed with little or no commissioning. Drive customisation adds to existing
performance and provides flexibility to meet special job requirements.
The main components of the Silcovert TN are the Inverter and Rectifier Power Modules, available with either air or water cooling solutions.
This Converter contains all other essential auxiliary circuits and devices:• current and voltage transducers;
• power supplies; • precharge circuit;
• firing boards; • ground fault detector; • output reactors; and • safety ground switch.

SILCOVERT TN CHARACTERISTICS
MOTOR SIDE
SCALAR CONTROL (V/Hz)Basic speed control for applications such as FANS, PUMPS and ROLLER
TABLES where a high level of speed and torque are not required.
SENSORLESS VECTOR CONTROL (SLS)Used for more accurate torque and speed performance when their dynamic
control is not a fundamental requirement. For applications such as EXTRUDERS, MIXERS, KILNS, LARGE PUMPS AND FANS.
FIELD ORIENTATED VECTOR CONTROL (FOC) shaft encoder (required option)
Required for high dynamic performance. Brings together high speed accuracy, torque control across the whole speed range using a closed torque control loop (i.e. tension
regulators, winders, pay-off reels, position regulators, etc)

HMI: PROGRAMMING LEVELS
HUMAN-MACHINE INTERFACE
Three different programming levels are available that allow the user to easily access standard and function specific parameters according to the requirements of the application. At the highest level we offer over 400 parameters that ensure the optimum performance of motors and drives.
Intended for users who make complex system applications.
User can access many of the functions that were developed for complex systems (e.g. paper mills, steel mills).
The advanced level can meet the requirements of the widest range of drive applications.
LEVEL # 3:Advanced system application
Intended for users who have a sound knowledge of drives and applications.
For system integrators who need access to functions typical of simple applications or modify the I/O default settings
LEVEL # 2:Quick application start up
Intended for simple applications.
The user can start the motor using the factory default settings for I/O’s.
LEVEL # 1:Quick motor start up
