Screened cables
Screened cables are used as control cables and motor cables.
Control cables are screened for electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) reasons, to keep an electrical noise
impulse away from the control system.
Motor cables are screened for two reasons.
The first reason is with regard to safety, because the cable
is drawn in hazardous area (zone 1).
The second reason is to avoid the EMC interference to
electrical instrument mounted near the cables.
(The electrical noise is always kept inside the motor cable.)

Converter switchboard
The standard frequency converters are built into an

The switchboard is in a modular design to minimize
the
physical size.
In the switchboard there is a common copper busbar

Frequency converter
The frequency converter is a power electronic unit, which
transforms alternating current with a fixed frequency into
an alternating current with variable frequency.
The e-motor speed depends on the frequency.
If you have a variable frequency, then you are able to

- power input
When starting the pump, there
will be no high starting current
demand to the ship generators.
The absorbed supply current will
not exceed the nominal motor
current.
If the technical data for the
generators are given, it is
possible to calculate the
harmonic disturbance from the
converter switchboard.
Frequency converter
- power output
Starting the pump, the converter
will be able to deliver a starting
current of about 2-3 times
nominal motor current.
The starting current will after
some time (normally 10 sec.) fall
to less than nominal current.
When starting up the pump, the
motor voltage will be near zero.
As speed increases, the voltage
rises towards nominal voltage.
Getting beyond nominal speed, the nominal e-motor
power will be available. It will be possible to pump liquids
with very different specific gravity and viscosity, over a
wide range.
The converter creates a nice sinusoidal current waveform in
order not to increase losses in the electric motor.
The electric motor is selected for frequency converter

Emergency stop
In the frequency converter switchboard a common
emergency stop function is built in.
Emergency stop from deck and remote control panel will
be connected here, so a reset of the emergency
function can take place from the two locations.
