The core components of ABB's wind power drive control system include frequency converters, inverters, generators, main controllers, pitch systems, sensors, and actuators.
ABB's main products and solutions in wind power drive control:
1. Frequency Converters/Converters (ABB's core products)
ACS880 / ACS6080 series: These are ABB's main wind turbine converter platforms.
2. Generators
Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG): Used for direct drive and semi-direct drive systems.
Induction Generators: Includes Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) and Squirrel Cage Induction Generator (SCIG).
3. Control Systems and Sensors ABB's digital platform integrates turbine data, enabling advanced data analysis, predictive maintenance, and remote monitoring to optimize the performance of the entire wind farm. Condition Monitoring System (CMS): Used to monitor vibration and temperature in the drivetrain (main shaft, gearbox, generator), providing early warnings of potential faults.
