I am sorry for not being clear enough. I mean the H2 gas leak detection. The gas is likely to be at higher temperature +650 Deg C(Natural Gas reformer application) where it may create an unvisible flame.
Hope it is clear.
Hi!
Has any one used Portable H2 flame detector? We are searching one with reasonable investment for searching potential leaks. Any price range known? Please comment on reliable operation too.
Thanks in advance.
I would try installing the same probe at the incoming of the inverter(Pure sine wave) and compare with standard meter/ VFD display. It should be reading the current reading accurate enough ignoring the VFD losses.
I searched a lot but could not find a way to accurately measure the PWM current. I...
Thanks everybody for your valuable suggestions; I would like to present more facts as available on today.
1.I agree, The motor needs to be custom built.
2.Load characteristics are not known at this point of time as it is for a green field project.
3. Yes, the grid can not take up this motor on 4...
10-11 MW,13.8 KV motor needs to be installed in a green field project site. The existing electrical network does not permit to DOL start the motor, Is there any industry proven method of starting?
Is an auto transformer start method preferrable at this voltage/power level?
Suggestion:
Please evaluate your need, i.e. Do you need measurement only? Field display? Remote display? In case of failure of sensor what do you need to get indicated etc.
After which you can find plenty of various ways to tackle it. Post here such details we cn help you out.
Best luck
We are currently thinking of major expansion,building a new plant with sepearte new 4 KV substation(25 MVA). To do power factor correction we can either have individual motors connected with terminal capacitors or bulk capacitance(in 2 banks) connected on Bus. The load pattern will be fairly...
Dear Sewerfix,
Correct engineering practice will demand invertor duty motor chosen for starting characteristics of your pump, review of cable(type,insulation,armour etc), length of cable is a restriction for AC-VSD.
Good luck.
can anyone help me how to select the correct output choke rating for VFD/ motor/ cable combination ? I presume the choke will have to be rightly selected to cancel the cable capacitance effect, is there any formula or a thumb rule ?
In Smaller motors ( < 10HP) with a longer cables (> 150 mtr)...
