Artificial AC mains AN 150kVA 1f 60Hz, 1x230VAC/1x115VAC for compressor manufacturer

Customer challenge

Exporting to 60 Hz markets, product testing, powering special technologies or replacing rotary converters - all need a source of precise sinusoidal voltage with parameters the ordinary grid cannot provide. This is not an off-the-shelf purchase.

VONSCH solution - turnkey

The compressor manufacturer in the Slovak Republic has had to solve the problem of testing its products for markets with 60Hz frequency. Based on its requirements, a special aingle-phase artificial AC mains was designed and manufactured to test hermetic compressors and condensing units. Output alternating single-phase voltage is measured by a special measuring circuit which is connected as a feedback in the output voltage control circuit and therefore the setpoint of the output voltage is maintained regardless of the load value. The generated grid voltage at the output of the grid is fine tuned by the potentiometer within a specified range. The output AC voltage and current of each output branch is displayed on the digital displays.

What the customer gained

  • Export products tested at home – no complaints from the target market due to a different grid.
  • Repeatable tests – stable output independent of local grid quality.
  • Replacement for rotary converters – higher efficiency, less noise, minimal maintenance.
  • Parameters exactly per the test specification – no series-product compromises.
  • Long-term service from the manufacturer – the test bay is critical and must not stand still.

Why VONSCH

We reduce the risk of a wrong decision - from design to service you deal with a single partner who stands behind the solution.

  • A manufacturer, not a reseller - we develop and build power electronics in Brezno, Slovakia.
  • A turnkey solution - one responsibility from design through installation to commissioning.
  • Service and spare parts from Slovakia throughout the entire lifetime of the equipment.
