Germany: Ingeteam to Showcase Its Expertise at EWEA Offshore 2013

Ingeteam will exhibit at EWEA Offshore 2013, the world’s largest offshore wind energy conference and exhibition that will take place in Frankfurt, Germany from 19-21 November.

At the event, Ingeteam will be showcasing its electrical equipment for wind turbines up to 10 MW. The display at Stand 31D70 in Hall 3.1 will include a power converter with key components such as a Power Stack, a Basic Power Module (BPM) and control electronics.

The components are part of the new Low and Medium Voltage converter families which are based on the semiconductor parallelization for certain Power values (especially for low voltage) and on the smart parallelization of several Conversion Lines (especially for medium voltage). Both allow a complete redundant system solution (Power System, Power Supply, CCU and others). At the same time, the converter families are completely modular and offer flexible and scalable solutions for each project and different application requirements. With output powers ranging from 3 MW to 10 MW, the medium voltage converters are highly suitable for the offshore market.

Control electronics will also be shown. The Converter Control Unit (CCU) is a programmable electronic device with different analog/digital outputs and input and communication channels. It manages and controls the frequency converter’s operation by regulating the power flow between the generator and the grid.

The stand will also host Indar Electric, an Ingeteam company dedicated to the design and manufacturing of generators since 1940.
