•
Intermediate DC bus circuit
handles the DC current
4 DC reactors
•
Filter the intermediate DC
circuit voltage
•
Prove line transient protection
•
Reduce RMS current
•
Raise the power factor
reflected back to the line
•
Reduce harmonics on the AC
input
5 Capacitor bank
•
Stores the DC power
•
Provides ride-through
protection for short power
losses
6 Inverter
•
Converts the DC into a
controlled PWM AC waveform
for a controlled variable
output to the motor
7 Output to motor
•
Regulated 3-phase output
power to the motor
Area Title Functions
8 Control circuitry
•
Input power, internal
processing, output, and motor
current are monitored to
provide efficient operation
and control
•
User interface and external
commands are monitored and
performed
•
Status output and control can
be provided
