  • Swiss Quality: Manufactured to ABB's stringent quality standards with full traceability

Industrial Applications

Mining & Minerals Processing

Powers large grinding mills, SAG mills, and conveyor systems in copper, gold, and iron ore operations. The module's robust design withstands vibration and temperature extremes in underground and open-pit environments.

Oil & Gas

Drives high-power compressors and pumps in pipeline booster stations, LNG facilities, and offshore platforms. The wide temperature range supports Arctic and desert installations.

Cement & Steel Production

Controls kiln drives, ball mills, and rolling mill motors in cement plants and steel mills. High short-circuit capability protects against frequent load transients.

Marine Propulsion

Enables variable-speed control of main propulsion motors and azimuth thrusters in cruise ships, tankers, and icebreakers. Compact design fits space-constrained engine rooms.

Power Generation

Regulates generator excitation and auxiliary drives in thermal, hydro, and renewable energy plants. Precision control optimizes grid synchronization and power quality.

System Integration & Function

Role in ACS2000 Inverter

The S-073N ALU rack serves as the mechanical and electrical foundation for one phase leg of the ACS2000's multi-level converter topology. It houses:

  • IGCT or IGBT power semiconductors with gate driver boards
  • DC link capacitors for energy storage and voltage smoothing
  • Snubber circuits for dv/dt and di/dt protection
  • Current and voltage sensors for real-time feedback
  • Thermal monitoring and protection circuits

Electrical Interface

The module connects to the inverter's DC bus via high-current busbars (typically 1000-3000A rating) and to the motor via shielded AC output cables. Control signals from the main controller arrive via fiber optic links for noise immunity.

Cooling Requirements

Forced air cooling is standard for lower power ratings (<5 MW), while liquid cooling (water or glycol) is used in higher power systems. The aluminum rack features integrated cooling channels and mounting provisions for heatsinks or cold plates.

Installation & Replacement

Safety Precautions

WARNING: This module operates at lethal voltages (up to 11 kV DC). Only qualified electrical personnel with high-voltage training should perform installation or maintenance. Follow NFPA 70E arc flash safety protocols.

Replacement Procedure

  1. De-energize inverter at main circuit breaker and apply lockout/tagout
  2. Wait minimum 30 minutes for DC bus capacitor discharge (verify <50 VDC with rated meter)
  3. Ground DC bus bars using portable grounding assembly
  4. Disconnect AC output cables, DC bus connections, and fiber optic control links
  5. Remove mounting bolts securing rack to cabinet frame
  6. Carefully extract module using lifting equipment (10 kg weight)
  7. Install replacement rack, torque all connections per manual specifications
  8. Perform insulation resistance test (>100 MΩ @ 1000 VDC)
  9. Re-energize and conduct no-load functional test

Common Issues & Diagnostics

Symptom Possible Cause Solution
Inverter trips on overcurrent Failed IGCT/IGBT in phase module Inspect semiconductors for short circuit, replace module if damaged
Excessive vibration or noise Loose mounting hardware Re-torque all bolts to specification, check for mechanical resonance
Overtemperature alarm Insufficient cooling airflow Clean air filters, verify cooling fans operational, check for blocked vents
Unbalanced phase currents Degraded capacitors or sensors Measure capacitance values, replace if <80% of nominal, calibrate sensors

Preventive Maintenance

Interval Task
Monthly Visual inspection for physical damage, verify cooling system operation
Quarterly Thermal imaging scan to detect hot spots, check mounting bolt torque
Annually Insulation resistance test, capacitor ESR measurement, contact resistance check
Every 5 Years Replace electrolytic capacitors (preventive), update firmware if available

Quality & Warranty

All ABB S-073N ALU phase modules undergo rigorous factory testing:

  • High-voltage isolation test (2× rated voltage + 1000V for 1 minute)
  • Thermal cycling (-40°C to +85°C, 10 cycles)
  • Vibration testing per IEC 60068-2-6
  • Functional test at rated current and voltage

Warranty: 24 months from shipment date, covering defects in materials and workmanship. Extended service agreements available for critical applications.
