ADB launches CRE-M, a modular and energy-efficient IGBT regulator
ADB Airfield Solutions will launch the ADB Power CRE-M, a new, energy-efficient and modular regulator at Inter Airport Europe 2013.The new Constant Current Regulator (CCR) will be available in rack as well as stand-alone versions. As a rack-based model, various elements can be moved around – the high voltage section can be separated from the low voltage control electronics section – while service of the unit is simpler with the entire system configured to be more maintenance friendly.
“There was a clear need from our customers for a regulator with logical build-up of various functional building blocks while providing more flexibility in the topology of the CCRs,” said Christian Onselaere, CEO, ADB Airfield Solutions. “Our new CRE-M regulator – where M stands for modular – allows easy access by facilitating various cable run and connection possibilities, improved use of the available space in sub-stations not to mention easing up installation as well as service and maintenance.”
The new range of IGBT CCRs is characterised by high efficiency . Additionally, comparative testing has shown that the harmonic distortion generated by the IGBT CCRs is only a fraction of the harmonic distortion generated by thyristor-controlled CCRs and is independent of the connected load which makes them suitable for nonlinear loads like LED fittings, present-day signs and ILCMS equipment.
An extension to the current range of IGBT regulators from ADB, the CRE-M is a pure sine wave CCR specially designed to supply power to airport lighting series circuits at various intensity levels. ADB’s state-of-the-art PWM – IGBT power management technology delivers high precision current control and regulation. Its fully digital operation eliminates the impact of changes in temperature, voltage or other physical parameters. CRE-M includes a wide range of single or redundant remote control possibilities, monitoring and diagnostic capabilities. It is equipped with an integrated menu-driven Human Machine Interface (HMI) which supports full on-site configuration without any additional equipment. More advanced parameter changes are possible via PC.
