System overview
Proven in several global installations, the VOIDSWRJED41923181054 Decokng system includes two VFDs supplied for the winches and rotary joints. The VFDs are packaged with two cabinets that are to be located in a non-hazardous area, preferably near the PLC panel to minimize end user wiring. Both VFDs in each pair are capable of operating two units and are supplied in pairs to provide a backup. The PLC controls the switching of what unit is being operated by the VFDs, and a switching unit will automatically engage the backup VFD in the event of a failure in the primary VFD. A failure alarm will indicate the switch but will not prevent the finishing of the drum cut.
