Limitless
Modular Power.
A flexible drive architecture that can be paralleled up to 2.8 megawatts (4,200 hp). Low harmonics with Active Front End (AFE) rectifiers, common DC bus systems and unrivalled power density designed for heavy industry.
Heavy Industry
Sizing Tools
Work out online how to configure the M000's immense power in your projects and calculate the return on investment of an Active Front End (AFE) system.
Active Front End (AFE) ROI
For applications operating in generating mode, such as cranes, elevators, test rigs or winders, calculate the payback of the energy you feed back to the grid with the M000 AFE architecture.
Heavy-Duty Fan/Pump VFD ROI
See the substantial kWh and CO2 savings you can achieve on megawatt-class fans and pumps by using the M000 modular series instead of damper/valve throttling.
Mechanical Sizing Engine
Calculate the mechanical load, acceleration times and reflected inertia of your modular system with the ONX physics engine.
Power Cable Sizing
Determine a safe cable cross-section based on voltage drop and current-carrying limits, which are critical for megawatt-class drives.
Electrical Efficiency Analysis
Determine the active/reactive power drawn from the grid and the power delivered to the shaft in high-power systems, based on cosφ and efficiency.
A Topology Shaped by Your Needs
6-, 12-, 18- and 24-pulse rectifier configurations are easily built with separate inverter ('D' modules) and rectifier (RECT) modules.
Common DC Bus & Regenerative (AFE)
Separate rectifier and inverter stages are used to return braking energy to the grid (regen) or to optimize power management by connecting multiple inverters to the same DC bus.
- Low harmonics, high power quality
- Fewer switchgear components across the system
Independent Controller Layer
M000 power modules are configured as "Master" and "Follower" to suit your application. Choose an M700, M600 or H300 control module as the brain of the system to add exactly the intelligence you need.
- 250 µs motion support with the M700 controller
- Fiber-optic synchronization across multiple modules
Reliability That Defies Harsh Conditions
Intelligent Trip Avoidance (Load Shedding)
Instead of tripping suddenly when the system approaches its thermal limits, it reduces the switching frequency or sheds load/speed so the critical process keeps running without interruption.
Unrivalled Power Density
Measuring only 295 x 1750 x 526 mm, a single "Frame 12" module delivers 500 kW (700 hp). It saves almost half the cabinet space compared with competing products.
Effortless Migration from Unidrive SP
Retrofitting legacy modular systems has never been easier. Frame sizes 9, 10 and 11 share exactly the same mounting dimensions as the previous Unidrive SP, so no cabinet modification is required.
