In the crusher industry, soft starters and frequency converters each have their unique application value.
Application of soft starters in the crusher industry:
1. Reduce starting current and grid impact:
When the crusher starts, it often generates a large starting current, which may cause an impact on the grid and equipment. The soft starter controls the power supply voltage so that the voltage of the motor gradually increases during the starting process, thereby achieving smooth starting. This helps to reduce the current impact during starting, reduce the peak current of the grid, and improve the reliability of power supply
2. Protect the motor and extend the service life:
The soft starter not only has the starting function but also provides a variety of protection functions, such as overload protection and phase loss protection. This helps prevent the motor from being damaged due to abnormal conditions such as overcurrent and overload during the starting process, thereby extending the service life of the motor
3. Achieve smooth starting and reduce mechanical impact:
The soft starter gradually increases the thyristor conduction angle, so that the motor starting current rises linearly from zero to the set value, avoiding the problem of impact current. At the same time, it can also freely and steplessly adjust to the optimal starting current according to the load conditions and the characteristics of the power grid relay protection, achieve smooth starting of the motor, and reduce the impact and wear on the mechanical parts.
4. Suitable for harsh environments:
In the crusher industry, the on-site environment is often harsh. With its strong adaptability and stability, the soft starter can work reliably in harsh environments and provide a guarantee for the stable operation of the crusher.
Application of frequency converter in the crusher industry:
1. Speed regulation and improving production efficiency:
The frequency converter can change the power frequency and thus adjust the speed of the motor. In the crusher industry, this helps to adjust the speed of the crusher according to the actual conditions such as the hardness and particle size of the crushed material, and improve production efficiency. At the same time, the frequency converter can also keep the motor in the best state during startup and operation, improving the operating efficiency.
2. Energy saving and reducing energy consumption:
The crusher has a high power consumption, and energy saving and consumption reduction are the focus of the industry. The frequency converter adjusts the speed of the motor to reduce energy consumption when the motor is running at non-essential high speed. At the same time, the inverter can also adjust the output power of the motor according to actual needs to avoid the motor being in a high-load operation state for a long time, thereby achieving energy-saving effects.
3. Reduce maintenance and extend equipment life:
The inverter reduces maintenance and repair by reducing the impact on the equipment. At the same time, it can also provide a variety of protection functions such as overload, overcurrent, and undervoltage to ensure the stable operation of the motor. This helps to extend the service life of the crusher and its related equipment.
4. Improve crushing quality and flexibility:
The inverter has accurate speed control capabilities, and users can adjust the speed of the crusher according to the required materials and output particle size. This enables the crusher to better adapt to the crushing needs of different materials and improve crushing quality and flexibility.
