Protect sensitive industrial and commercial
loads from power quality events
The ABB PCS100 AVC is an inverter based system that
protects sensitive industrial and commercial loads from
voltage disturbances. Providing fast, accurate voltage sag
and surge correction as well as continuous voltage regulation
and load voltage compensation, the PCS100 AVC has been
optimally designed to provide equipment immunity from power
quality events on the AC supply network.
Available in load capacities of 150 kVA – 2.4 MVA, with
higher powers available on request. The PCS100 AVC has an
operating efficiency exceeding 98 percent.
Data center
AVCs protect data centers and supercomputers for flight simulators, research institutes and the film industry. For example, Weta Studios which has produced movies like Avatar and Lord of the Rings and supercomputers like, the National Institute of and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) in New Zealand.
Robotics
Painting and welding robots of car manufacturers in Europe and Asia are protected by PCS100 AVCs.
Sensitive tooling and machinery
The semiconductor and display industries have the most sensitive processes. ABB have hundreds of MVA installed at leading companies like, ASE, Toshiba and many others worldwide.
Regenerative loads
PCS100 AVC protecting regenerative loads such as, lifts and cranes. One example is the Hong Kong airport, in the container terminal.
Medical equipment
Waiting lists and expensive high tech equipement force clinics to ensure highest availability. An example is Samsung Healthcare, who are using 300 kVA and 600 kVA PCS100 AVCs to protect cancer treatment machines.
Fiber and film production
PCS100 AVCs protecting processes like carbon fiber manufacturing for airplanes, textile fiber for sportswear eg lycra and film manufacturing, either for packaging or display applications across four continents.
