TMdrive-10e2 SPR


The TMdrive-10e2 SPR Slip Power Recovery Drive System for Wound Rotor Motors belongs to the TMdrive-10e2 family of low-voltage system drives designed to lower the cost of ownership with numerous space-saving and maintenance features.

Efficient Power Recovery for Wound Rotor Motors
The TMdrive-10e2 Slip Power Recovery (SPR) Drive enhances the efficiency of systems using wound rotor motors by operating at a high power factor with minimal harmonics. It recovers and returns power to the grid when running below base speed, significantly reducing energy consumption. Additionally, the drive supports operation above synchronous speed—boosting throughput within mechanical limits—and serves as an ideal retrofit solution for outdated current source SPR systems.
With the TMdrive-10e2 SPR, wound rotor motors have entered the 21st Century offering:
- PWM converters
- High power factor operation
- High reliability
- Low cost of ownership
