Eaton’s medium-voltage SC9000 adjustable frequency drive (AFD) is designed to help users increase energy efficiency, reduce ownership costs, and enhance power system reliability. The Eaton SC9000 drives are designed for original equipment manufacturer (OEM), water and wastewater, utility, industrial, and HVAC applications. The drives have a low part count topology and are equipped with a redundant cooling system to help improve reliability and reduce maintenance. Users can also shift from low-voltage to medium-voltage drives for applications at lower power ranges. Currently, medium-voltage drives are typically used in applications starting at 300-500 horsepower (HP) range. Depending on overall system characteristics, the SC9000 GP can be used cost-effectively in applications starting at 100 hp. For environments where safety is a primary concern, the SC9000 EP arc-resistant drives offer an arc-resistant Type 2B enclosure to help enhance safety from the front, sides and rear of the enclosure.
