AD1000-AFE Four-Quadrant Inverter

An active front end that feeds braking energy back to the grid at a power factor close to 1, for the elevators, cranes and high-inertia loads that brake constantly.

AD1000-AFE Four-Quadrant Inverter front view

AD1000-AFE Four-Quadrant Vector Inverter adopts PWM-controlled IGBT rectification technology to achieve bidirectional control of rectification and energy feedback. With a power factor close to 1, it enables true four-quadrant operation. This series of inverters can feed back the inertial energy of the load to the power grid, and is equipped with regenerative function and braking function. It is suitable for potential energy loads requiring energy regeneration, energy conservation and environmental protection, as well as large-inertia loads requiring rapid deceleration

Problems it solves

Why this model gets specified


01

Braking resistors turn recovered energy into heat and a cooling problem. AD1000-AFE feeds the inertial energy of the load back to the grid instead.

02

Frequent braking cycles overheat conventional drives. True four-quadrant operation makes repeated braking a normal duty rather than a limit.

03

Reactive power draws penalties on industrial tariffs. PWM IGBT rectification holds the power factor close to 1.

Who it is for: Engineers specifying drives for elevators, cranes, hoists and other potential-energy or large-inertia loads up to 710 kW.
