Taking the heat out of global warming
Our future depends upon the wise management of our
natural resources – water and energy. Today, scientific
challenges are concentrated on finding the most
equitable allocation of our limited resources and the
most efficient use of them.
When it comes to pumping water, moving air, or
general machinery applications, we are presented with
an opportunity to optimise our energy consumption and
make a contribution to the reduction of global warming.
Research has found that 40% of all energy used
is electrical, with a staggering 50% of this used by
electric motors.
AC drive technology can help
Studies have shown we can significantly reduce
energy consumption by enhancing the performance
of a motor with AC drive technology. The level of
energy savings that can be obtained depends on the
application, but is typically in the 10-20% range. In
some cases the savings can be as high as 60-70%.
Not only running costs, but starting currents are
reduced. This saves on peak demand charges and
eliminates energy peaks. Power factor is also close
to unity, so no additional power factor correction
equipment is needed.
The worlds largest AC Drive range
The Vacon series of drives offers full hardware and
software modularity, providing one single family of
models from 0.25 kW to 5 MW.
With voltage options of 240V, 415V and 690V, and
options of air cooled and purpose designed liquid
cooled drives, the Vacon range forms the world’s
largest single family of drives.
The Vacon concept of modularity is unique. Features
include three different control units, two cooling
methods for power units, room for several different
I/O cards, and field-installable conversion kits, just to
name a few. These elements can largely be mixed and
matched.
Together with our engineering support and 24 hour
free-call numbers (Australia and New Zealand) CMG
sets the standard when choosing a drive partner.

Why Vacon?
If you are looking for reliability and easy integration into
your system, the Vacon name is your first choice.
Based in Finland, Vacon is the fastest growing
manufacturer of drives. Unlike almost all of its
competitors, Vacon focuses entirely on variable speed
AC drives. They rank in the top ten world-wide, with an
R&D team second to none.
Vacon drives are based on full hardware and software
modularity and make use of the most sophisticated
semiconductor technology available. The performance
of Open Loop control is excellent for most common

Applications
CMG’s knowledge and experience with
AC drives extends to many industrial
sectors.
Vacon drives are used in a host of applications utilising
the various software solutions available. Below are just
a few examples where CMG’s expertise is being put to
good use.
Building Automation solutions
Today’s buildings are sophisticated environments
with demanding requirements for comfort and control.
A typical office building houses hundreds of pumps
and fans controlling the heating, ventilation and airconditioning.
Together with high energy efficiency
demands, this leads to a need for advanced control
features and high reliability.
HVAC and Firemode
With the proven ability to substantially improve the
quality and efficiency of the heating, ventilation and air
conditioning of a building, Vacon drives were selected
for the $204 million Britomart Transport Centre project
in New Zealand.
Providing a central connection point for bus, ferry
and rail services in Auckland CBD, the project placed
safety above all else. CMG supplied 24 variable
speed drives to control the all important ventilation
system. Fire control was an important consideration
and the drives were an ideal choice as they easily
accommodate true firemode operation.
Materials Handling solutions
With factors such as increased fuel costs and energy
consumption, there has been a shift to more innovative
approaches to materials handling. Vacon drives
guarantee a cost effective, energy efficient solution.
Conveyors
Winner of Australian Bulk Handling Award for Transport
& Conveying Technology, the Wambo Coal train
project’s underground conveyor transport system used
CMG products as the “back-bone” of the project.
The engineers were looking for a product to provide
high power and smooth control with high starting
torque. The ability of Vacon drives to operate
effortlessly under extreme conditions contributed
greatly to the success of the design.
Lift and Crane
Lifting requires smooth, reliable and safe control. That’s
why the high performance NXP drive with encoder
feedback is commonly used. CMG offers tailored
software for cranes and regenerative braking, and have
seen similar success with permanent magnet motors.

Water solutions
Vacon water solutions can help you save energy, improve your processes
and protect the environment by enabling stepless speed control of
pumps, mixers, blowers and chemical dosing in an optimum way.
Pump set with Multimaster
Yarra Valley Water wanted a simple to run pump set with minimal
equipment. CMG met this challenge, commissioning the Multimaster
system. With simple user controls, the drive’s internal logic controls
all aspects of the pump set including auto-rotate and pump and motor
protections, and eliminates the need for any additional controller.
Advanced level control for sewage pit
Reducing maintenance and stress on pumps, smoothing out-flow surges
and eliminating peak starting currents were all concerns for SA Water.
With Vacon’s Level Control application, CMG were able to allay each
issue. In addition, CMG saved on equipment costs with the two drives
utilising Advanced Level Control logic and avoiding the need for an
external controller.
Marine solutions
In the highly competitive marine sector, increased demand for efficiency
is the main reason for using AC drives in fan, winch, propeller, and
various special applications. This is equally true of all vessel types, from
large luxury liners and cargo ships to small work boats.
OEM solutions
CMG products guarantee improved performance. You can easily adapt
a Vacon drive to OEM requirements and CMG provides product specific
support for joint product development.
Concrete grinding and polishing machine
Operating in harsh conditions with vibration and dust, two drives were
used in each concrete grinding and polishing machine. Not only chosen
for their robust design, application such as this demand high torque right
through the speed range, and Vacon drives deliver.
Mining and Metal solutions
In heavy industrial applications, only well engineered and robust
equipment will survive. CMG’s expertise has been utilised time and again
in these types of applications.
Vacon drives are reliable, integrate easily into existing control systems,
and provide trouble free operation. CMG customer applications have
included demanding systems like ball mills at gold mines and high
pressure grinding roller presses (where two synchronized drives were
utilized).

Harmonics
Advanced Systems
– Harmonics reduction at its best
CMG offer an extensive choice of
solutions for harmonics reduction and
regenerative applications.
Our services extend to helping you estimate what
harmonic distortion is likely, and selecting the optimum
solution for your application.
The suite of harmonics solutions available includes
Passive filters, Active filters, 12 pulse & 18 pulse
drives, and Active Front End drives.
12 and 18-Pulse drives
The Vacon drive range provides 12-pulse drives from
385A. 18-pulse drives are available from 820A. Speak
to your local CMG office for more information.
î The 5th, 7th, 17th and 19th harmonics are
cancelled in the transformer
î Current distortion THDI = 10%.
Active Front End and Regenerative
Solution
Vacon’s unique Active Front End (AFE) drives solution
minimises harmonics down to 4% by tuning out
specific harmonics. Coupled with our regenerative
filter, the cleanest power can be fed back to the supply
in braking situations.
This range includes front-end units, inverter units and
brake chopper units. Not only that, but with our unique
AFE technology we can help correct power factor
caused by connected equipment!
î The passive rectifier is replaced with an Active
rectifier
î The active rectifier generates a sinusoidal input
current
î Current distortion THDI = 4%.
20 NX Drives 0712v3

Passive Filters
When the harmonics reduction provided by an integral AC Choke still
isn’t enough, a passive filter can be applied. Our passive harmonic filters
solve the problem of harmonics on six pulse rectifiers and are guaranteed
to meet minimum distortion levels all the way from no load to full load.
These provide harmonics levels down to 5%, and filters are available in
415V and 690V, IP00 and IP23.
Capacitors may be switched out when not in operation to avoid a leading
power factor, and thermal protection is provided. Please ask your local
CMG office for more information on the advantages of passive filters.
î Current distortion THDI = 5 or 8% for passive filters.
Active Filters – Controlled and selective
neutralization of harmonics
Think of quality noise cancelling headsets, and you’ll be dreaming of the
crisp clean waveform that active filters can provide. These filters actively
create a voltage which cancels out distortion frequencies and can be
specifically tuned for problematic harmonics.
They are conveniently placed in parallel, and hence can be used to treat
many drives at once without taking the risk of the drive power relying on
the filter being operational.
Benefits of Active Filters:
î Eliminate nuisance tripping of circuit breakers
î Extend equipment life
î Comply with technical standards
î Compatible with generator sets
î Save energy
î Current distortion THDI = < 5% for active filters, with tuning possible.

Tools
User interface & tools
– first class usability
Commissioning and fine-tuning is made
simple with the easy built-in start-up
wizard.
Plus the well-defined menu structure and easy to use
functions ensure hassle-free operation.
As many as three different monitoring values can be
displayed on the keypad display simultaneously. We
can even convert to show actual value display,
eg; kPa, ºC and l/s.
A number of software programs are available to make
using a Vacon NX drive as easy and convenient as
possible. The software is intended for tasks such as
commissioning, loading of various applications, and
block programming.
Built-in help is available across all software. Additional
PC tools are freely available for download from
www.vacon.com.

Built in software applications –
software modularity
The All-in-One application package has seven
applications which can be selected with one
parameter. (The start-up wizard will prompt for the
applications at the first power-up.) With this single
setting, the controls can be easily programmed.
These re-configured software applications are perfectly
suited for controlling the drive for practical applications
such as pumps, fans, blowers, compressors,
conveyors, winders, mixers, cranes, hoists, winches,
elevators and crushers.
We offer a wide range of customized special
applications, including a Water Solutions Package
(for multiple pump flow control, irrigation and level
control), Lift, Winder, High-speed, Torque control, and
Permanent Magnet motors.

As an alternative to the default All-In-One application
package, the Vacon NXP can also be equipped
with the NXP Application Package. It is designed to
meet the requirements in demanding automation
applications requiring coordinated drives like paper
machines, the metal industry, and processing lines.
The package also includes:
î Position Control Application
(for single-axis position interpolating control)
î Shaft Synchronization Application
(for relative position control between a master and
follower axis).

Selection
Power, current & dimensions
Drive selection is simple. Based on
the current required by the motors, the
degree of overloadability, and the ambient
temperature, the correct drive can be
chosen.
Our selection options cover both variable torque
applications (low overload) and constant torque
applications (high overload). The constant torque
selection is already rated for 50°C continuous without
de-rating.
Variable torque applications (low overload)
î 10% for 1 minute every 10 minutes, 150% starting
torque, 40°C continuous ambient temperature
Constant torque applications (high overload)
î 50% for 1 minute every 10 minutes, 200% starting
torque, 50°C continuous ambient temperature.
