Regen AC - R1000
High-performance line regeneration for elevator applications.
Any time an AC motor is overhauled by the driven load, excess energy is generated and fed back to the inverter. In elevator applications, this condition occurs on virtually every run. This energy must be properly handled to avoid drive faults or possible equipment damage.
RegenAC™ reclaims excess regenerative energy from the motor and supplies it back to the 3-phase AC power system. RegenAC is wired in parallel with the adjustable frequency drive. It takes the place of traditional dynamic braking resistors, which dissipate excess energy into the ambient environment in the form of ‘heat.’
