The customer operates two feed-water pump. Each pump is driven by a 13,5MW Siemens motor which is connected to a SIMOVERT S converter.
Since the existing SIMOVERT S series was discontinued in 2008 and replaced by a successor SINAMICS GL150 the supply of spare parts is already restricted.
That's why the customer wants Siemens to perform a suitable retrofit of their converters and thus ensure the availability of its plant.
The focus was on current modern technology, use of the structural conditions, short conversion times, reliable project planning, assembly and occupational safety and commissioning.
Siemens' retrofit solution included the configuring and preparing of two SINAMICS GL150. A team of Siemens Field Experts rendered the de-installation and commissioning of:
2x SINAMICS GL150 performance and customer-specific control cabinet with the new TP 1900 Comfort Display
2x SIMOTRAS HD excitation cabinet
2x modernization of the recooling system with ET-200/Profibus
The new converters were installed in the same e-room, only eight core drillings had to be done. The medium-voltage-, control- and process-control cables were reused according to the connections. The existing recooling system has been expanded temporarily, during the transport.
The Siemens Experts faced some challenges during the implementation:
The customer needed special cabinets as well as a document approval process.
Siemens Service experts had to handle the very tight time schedule.
Belated delivery of relevant components to the respective plant.
State-of-the-art technology with a new SINAMICS GL150
Customized TP1900 display
Customized cabinet size and weight and improved control board for cooling unit
Enhanced reliability
Spare parts availability for many more years to come
Optimal project planning and implementation by experienced Siemens Field Experts
