The operating instructions are indented for use by anyone configuring an application involving the devices,
commissioning the devices, carrying out maintenance work on them or working on or with the device in any
other context.
The data and information in the operating instructions and other associated documentation covers all typical
applications. However, due to the wide variety of applications in which Power Conversion frequency
converters can be used, it is not possible to describe all conceivable applications and provide exhaustive
information and instructions for their configuration, commissioning, etc. we therefore ask that you contact our
drive experts if you have any questions about Power Conversion frequency converters or require support.

2.1.1 Architecture
Power Conversion MV7000 series are medium-voltage variable frequency drives. The topology is a 3-
level NPP (Neutral point Piloted), voltage source inverter (VSI) using pulse width modulation (PWM) for
generating the output voltage. It comprises the new generation press pack IGBTs (Insulated Gate
Bipolar Transistors) or IEGTs (Injection Enhanced Gate Transistors). Flat pack technology is used for
lower ratings.
Note: In this user manual, we will use IGBT as a generic term covering both IGBT and IEGT types.
A Power conversion MV7000 consists of several cubicles either mounted on a single skid as shown in
Figure 2-1 or made of several sections that are assembled at site.
Figure 2-1 Typical MV7000 NPP (3kV) Drive: MV7304 12P example, skid assembly
Precharge & optional pre-magnetization transformer: used to precharge the DC link, and optional to pre-
magnetize the main transformer in order to avoid inrush current.
Inverter: 3-level Neutral Point Piloted (NPP) Press-Pack IGBT type. The grounding switch is located in inverter
cubicle.
dV/dt filter: optional for MV7304 / MV7309 / MV7312, reduces switching transients to allow operation with
long motor cables.
PECe Controller: Power Electronics Controller (PECe) provides high performance vector control and ensures
drive safety.
PIBe on potential: Power interface board all analog measurements, digital measurements of the converter
and firing / monitoring signal of the IGBT.
Cooling Unit: provides deionized water for cooling inverter and rectifier to transfer drive losses to external
raw water circuit (optional air / de-ionized water heat exchanger).
Sinus filter (optional): converts the PWM Voltage output to a sinusoidal wave, which enhances the motor
capacity, reduces THD and allows a maximum output frequency above 90 Hz.
In a 3-level Neutral Point Piloted (NPP) topology, DC link is divided into two sets of capacitors, first set
between DC+ and 0V, and second set between 0V and DC-.
Depending on IGBT gating combination, each inverter phase output can be connected to DC+ or 0V or
DC-. As a result of this, the motor line-to-line voltage can be 100% VDC, 50% VDC or 0 (and the same as
negative). Figure 2-3 illustrates this principle with U-W motor voltage. All three phases are conducting
simultaneously. Phase V conduction is not represented in order to simplify the diagram.
