Bus Regulation
The bus voltage regulation setpoint is determined from bus memory (a means to
average DC bus over a period of time). The following tables and figure describe the
operation.
If [Bus Reg Mode x] is set to “Dynamic Brak”
The Dynamic Brake Regulator is enabled. In “Dynamic Brak” mode the Bus
Voltage Regulator is turned off. The “DB Turn On” and turn off curves apply. For
example, with a DC Bus Memory at 684V DC, the Dynamic Brake Regulator will
turn on at 750V DC and turn back off at 742V DC.
If [Bus Reg Mode x] is set to “Both-Frq 1st”
Both regulators are enabled, and the operating point of the Bus Voltage Regulator is
lower than that of the Dynamic Brake Regulator. The Bus Voltage Regulator
setpoint follows the “Bus Reg Curve 2” below a DC Bus Memory of 650V DC and
follows the “DB Turn Off” curve above a DC Bus Memory of 650V DC (
Table C
).
The Dynamic Brake Regulator follows the “DB Turn On” and turn off curves. For
example, with a DC Bus Memory at 684V DC, the Bus Voltage Regulator setpoint
is 742V DC and the Dynamic Brake Regulator will turn on at 750V DC and back
off at 742V DC.
If [Bus Reg Mode x] is set to “Adjust Freq”
The Bus Voltage Regulator is enabled. The Bus Voltage Regulator setpoint follows
“Bus Reg Curve 1” below a DC Bus Memory of 650V DC and follows the “DB
Turn On” above a DC Bus Memory of 650V DC (
Table C
). For example, with a DC
Bus Memory at 684V DC, the adjust frequency setpoint is 750V DC.
