Siemens GH180 Medium-Voltage Drive Commissioning
Saline Water Conversion Corporation
Project Overview
Hi-Tec's project for Saline Water Conversion Corporation covered engineering, testing and commissioning of a Siemens GH180 medium-voltage variable-frequency drive.
Challenge / Project Requirement
The project required a structured commissioning process for an MV drive, including checks of interfaces and I/O, drive programming and test runs.
Solution and Technical Scope
The documented scope included capacitor forming, logic-interface checks, I/O loop checking, cold testing, power-on testing, programming to the existing application requirements, a final no-load trial and handover, followed by MV VFD load testing with the motor connected.
Project Outcome
The project reference documents the commissioning and test activities through no-load and motor-connected load testing. Specific test values, acceptance criteria and operational performance results were not provided.
