PowerFlex 6000T Medium Voltage Drive (VFD)

What’s New?

PowerFlex 6000T Medium Voltage Drives Help Increase Productivity

Our five new VFD enhancements can help you reduce energy use, downtime, maintenance costs and more.

Expand your use of PowerFlex 6000T VFDs to permanent magnet (PM) motor applications

• Support high-efficiency PM motor applications with up to 120 Hz output frequency
• Reach energy efficiency and sustainability goals as PM motors expand into the oil, gas, HVAC, paper and forestry industries

Additional predictive maintenance capabilities help reduce downtime

• Set new predictive alerts for transformers, airflow, motor and machine bearings and lubrications
• Create runtime alerts for critical components

Reduce cybersecurity risk

• CIP Security-enabled drives boost security for your smart machines, networks and equipment

Space-saving solution for your plant

• The secondary precharge support is now housed within the existing footprint, reducing costs and valuable floor space

More options for configuration

• Five standard option slots enable you to easily tailor the drive to your application requirements
• Options now include ENETR for EtherNet/IP, plus 13TCOMMP1 for PROFIBUS, Encoder Cards, I/O Modules and more

Boost Productivity with PowerFlex Medium Voltage AC Drives

Simple. Connected. Easy to use.

PowerFlex 6000T features a common control architecture and TotalFORCE® technology.

Simplify your integration and operating experience by choosing PowerFlex 6000T MV drives. They share the same control hardware, firmware and network interface software used in our latest generation of PowerFlex 755T low voltage drives. Using a common control platform across your entire installed base of variable frequency drives lowers integration, operation and support costs. A common platform also reduces training requirements and spare parts inventory.

Overview

The Right Medium Voltage Drive for Your Facility

From industrial manufacturing plants to oil rigs in remote locations, PowerFlex VFDs are trusted for demanding applications by many of the world’s biggest companies.

And the smart PowerFlex 6000T medium voltage VFD not only helps keep production running, but the drive also helps predict downtime before it happens.

Medium Voltage Drive Benefits

PowerFlex 6000T VFDs provide precise speed, direction and torque control.  The medium voltage drive offers built-in EtherNet/IP and supports common communication protocols. Standardized VFD technology reduces complex system integration, operations and maintenance.

• Multiple control modes include flux vector control with up to 150% starting torque with an encoder and 100% without an encoder
• Reduce peak demand charges by operating near unity power factor throughout the speed range
• An integrally mounted, multi-pulse isolation transformer helps achieve low line side harmonics and high input power factor
• Multi-motor control like load sharing and sync-transfer control enables one PowerFlex MV VFD to control up to 10 motors
• The RealSine™ solution significantly reduces input harmonics. Reducing harmonic distortion helps improve system efficiency, reduce energy costs and minimize power distribution issues on the factory floor
• Providing real-time intelligence and predictive analytics, TotalFORCE technology helps reduce downtime by seeing problems before they happen
