Product Description

The WD5100 is Wolong Power Electronics' general-purpose high-voltage frequency converter; the WD5180 is its high-performance compact version. Both use cascaded H-bridge power cells (unit cascade, AC-DC-AC, high-high) with a dry-type multi-pulse phase-shifting transformer, and drive asynchronous, electrically excited synchronous and permanent-magnet synchronous motors.

Wolong Power Electronics belongs to Wolong Electric Group and covers drives from 380 V to 10 kV, including low-voltage inverters, 1140 / 3300 V three-level inverters and cascaded high-voltage inverters.

Main Components

  • Phase-shifting transformer: dry-type, multi-pulse rectification for high power factor and no harmonic pollution of the grid
  • Control system: high-speed ARM, DSP and FPGA; vector control with stacked PWM for sinusoidal output
  • Output waveform: 4N+1 level PWM, almost sinusoidal, friendly to standard motors
  • Power units: modular for easy maintenance and replacement
  • Communication: optical-fibre isolated links with high noise immunity
  • Bypass cabinet: manual or automatic bypass to switch between fixed and variable frequency
  • Filters: pull-up isolation filter screens that are easy to replace

Functions

  • Synchronous and asynchronous motor vector control, including PM and electrically excited machines
  • Low-voltage ride-through: keeps running during short grid dips
  • Master-slave control, one-to-one or one-to-many, over CAN
  • Flying start: finds the speed and direction of a coasting motor and restarts smoothly
  • Automatic restart after a short power loss
  • Asymmetric cell bypass with neutral-point shift: if a power cell fails it is bypassed and the drive keeps running
  • Thermal simulation of every power rating; operation at high altitude and in coastal areas
  • Comprehensive protection: motor and output overload, short circuit and earth fault, input over-current, over- and under-voltage, phase loss, cooling-fan alarm, door interlock, transformer over-temperature

Model Code

Example WD5100-1000-M100-ATB: WD51 = Wolong large drive products; 00 = use (00 general, 10 internal mixer, 20 air-conditioner, 30 variable-frequency power supply, 40 water-cooled, 80 compact); 1000 = rated capacity (kVA); M = input voltage (A 380 V, B 690 V, C 1140 V, D 3 kV, E 3.3 kV, G 4.2 kV, H 6 kV, L 6.6 kV, M 10 kV, N 11 kV, P 13.8 kV); 100 = output voltage (060 = 6 kV, 100 = 10 kV); A = motor type (A asynchronous, P PM, S electrically excited synchronous); T = without regeneration (F = with energy feedback); B = cell bypass.

Applications

Energy saving on fans and pumps, compressors, belt conveyors, hoists, crushers and ball mills in petroleum, power, chemical, metallurgy, building materials, coal mines, municipal water, HVAC, papermaking, pharmaceuticals and test equipment.

Common Questions

WD5100 or WD5180?

WD5180 is the compact choice up to 2500 kVA at 10 kV; WD5100 covers up to 9000 kVA at 6 kV and 16000 kVA at 10 kV.

Can it drive an existing standard motor?

Yes, the 4N+1 level output is almost sinusoidal and suits standard motors. For new projects see the YVF VFD motor.

What if a power cell fails?

With cell bypass the failed cell is bypassed and, using neutral-point shift, the drive keeps running at reduced voltage.

How to Order

For a fast, accurate quotation please send: rated power (kW), voltage and frequency, motor type and nameplate, load type, supply voltage, bypass requirement, quantity and destination port. For a replacement, a photo of the old motor nameplate is the quickest way to match it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do your explosion-proof motors have ATEX and IECEx certificates?

Yes. Wolong Nanyang explosion-proof motors, both low-voltage and high-voltage, are available with ATEX and IECEx certificates for Europe and international projects, and GOST for the Russian market. Tell us which certificate you need when you ask for a quote.

Can this motor replace my existing motor?

Yes. For new projects we quote and select the model to your requirements. For a replacement, please send a nameplate photo or outline drawing of the old motor, and we will match the shaft height, mounting and installation dimensions.

Can you supply replacements for Schorch, Brook Crompton or Morley motors?

Yes. Schorch, Brook Crompton and Morley belong to the Wolong Electric Group, and we can supply Wolong motors built to replace them, matched to your mounting dimensions.

Can you ship to my country, and what is the lead time?

Yes. We ship worldwide on CIF terms, or you can use your own forwarder. The usual production time is about 3 months, depending on the model and quantity.

What information do you need for a quotation?

Rated power (kW), voltage and frequency, number of poles or speed, Ex marking or hazardous zone, mounting type (e.g. B3, B35, V1), quantity and destination port. A nameplate photo of the old motor helps if it is a replacement.
