Illustration 24: Main Circuit Diagram of VACON® 1000
The phase-shift rectifier transformer is a 3-phase air-cooled dry-type transformer directly connected with the incoming high voltage.
The secondary windings use an extended delta connection, which can lower the content of the input side current distortion. The
phase-shift angle between the secondary windings can be calculated according to the following formula:
Phase − shiftangle =
60°
Numberofpowercells
The secondary windings of the transformer provide input power for each power cell respectively. The number of secondary wind-
ings and the phase-shift angle between the windings are determined according to the voltage level and structure of the drive, as
shown in Table 2.
