Medium voltage motor controls | Eaton PSEC
9:16
Motors consume over 70% of the energy within industrial applications. This illustrates the reliance that industrial manufacturing has on motors, in turn making motor controls critical to that success. This is especially true for medium-voltage control (MVC) equipment that drive productivity, process performance and energy savings. In this video, Kyle Harrison, Product Manager Medium Voltage Control Assemblies, discusses medium voltage motor controls (MV MCs) to help us understand how they work and their role in industrial processes. Kyle explains that motor control centers (MCCs) are a centralized collection of equipment that control and protect motors. Also, compared to low voltage motors, medium voltage motors use smaller gauge wire, provide higher voltage, and require lower current to operate. Along with controlling motors, medium voltage motor controls can also be used to feed transformers and capacitor banks. Kyle also discusses the components that go into MV MCs and their role, including: • Isolation switch • Circuit breaker/fuse • Contactor • Protective relay • Control power transformer (CPT) • Voltage sensor • Meter We conclude by exploring real-world applications that use MV MCs such as mining, wastewater treatment facilities, and oil and gas operations.
