Bonfiglioli Active Regenerative System.
The innovation that regenerates energy.
Decades of experience in electronic industrial drives and renewable energy have enabled Bonfiglioli Vectron to offer an effective solution for recovering braking energy.
This solution comes in the form of the new Active Regenerative System inverters (AEC). In a large number of electrically controlled industrial applications, inertia in moving mechanisms can drive electrical motors as they act as brakes. They convert kinetic energy into electrical energy. In a regenerative process, this energy is returned to the grid.
Machines like winders and rewinders, flywheels, presses, turntables, lifting equipment and centrifuges all cyclically generate electricity for their motors from the kinetic energy accumulated during their main movement. This energy has to be properly controlled and managed.
Conventional systems based on braking resistors simply dissipate regenerated energy in heat sinks, with an obvious impact on economy and ecology.
Today, the need to save energy is making it essential for industry to use control technology that is able to recover braking energy effectively and redistribute it for use by other power users.
AEC regenerative inverters comprise an active-front-end AC/DC converter and a special impedance adaptor stage.
They can provide a continuous feed in parallel with the mains power supply, and act either as the system’s main bidirectional sine wave inverter or as a square wave unidirectional regenerating inverter.
Functional Scheme
AEC regenerating inverters are based on Active technology and deliver the same excellent reliability and versatility as the latest generation of Bonfiglioli inverters.
Special set-up software allows users to select sine or square wave forms as required.
The system adapts automatically to grid conditions, ensuring perfectly synchronised feed.
In the event of a power failure and disconnection, AEC regenerating inverters can carry on controlling braking energy through optional resistive loads. The drive can therefore complete all the manoeuvres needed to stop the machine safely before shutting down.
Performance and load curves can be viewed and monitored using an optional keyboard or via an RS232 or RS485 serial port, or a Profibus, CANopen or Systembus field bus.
Power exchange, mains phase angle, DC link voltage and I/Os can all be configured by the user.
Innovative, eco-friendly, user-friendly.
Agile series provide in a sensorless vector inverter innovations able to boost plant efficiency through open loop vector control of brushless motors, MMC memory cards and web control.
Agile smart sensorless frequency inverters are easy to install, program and quick to start-up without the needs of specialized resources.
Integrated Agile - frequency inverter for wind turbines - are available as custom design products on request, for Wind Solutions system integrators.
Integrated Agile inverters can be mounted directly to the motor and represent a very compact alternative to the traditional yaw system without inverter or with the motor supplied by a standard frequency converter installed in a cabinet.
