Modular Drive SolutionsGE offers a comprehensive range of common DC bus drive
products comprising DC source and inverter units in the
entire power range and voltages from 380V to 690V. The
drive components are built on proven technology and
provide the ideal solution for a drive system that requires
the performance of a common DC bus drive system.
Reliable, Robust, ProvenWhen your goal is to ensure that your AC drive system
delivers reliable and high performance operation with minimal impact on your AC power system, the GE LV7000 Common
DC bus drive solution is the right choice. Our Common DC bus components are used in a multitude of combinations across a
wide spectrum of high-power process industries from the pulp & paper, steel, metal & mining and material handling cranes to
smaller machines and production lines, which also demand cost-effective solutions.
DC bus systems comprise two main categories: regenerative and non-regenerative. In a regenerative DC bus system the
front-end unit is capable of generating power back to the AC line. This kind of system is suitable for processes where braking is
needed often and the braking power is relatively high. In a non-regenerative system the braking power is redistributed to the
other drives in the system via the common DC bus. In small production lines or small paper machines where braking is needed
less often, a non-regenerative common DC bus system is a cost-efficient solution. In high power applications, it is possible to
parallel multiple front-end units.
In addition to the system performance and cost savings, you’ll also benefit from reduced power cabling and installation time
and reduced overall footprint of your drive system. Your drive line-up tolerance to voltage dips/sags will be improved and the
harmonic distortions from your drive system will be minimized.
In Harmony with the EnvironmentGE is committed to being an environmentally responsible company and our energy saving products and solutions are a good
example of that. Our Common DC bus portfolio fulfills key international standards and global requirements, including safety,
Electrical Magnet Interference (EMI) and harmonics standards. Likewise, we continue to develop innovative solutions utilizing
i.e. regenerative energy and smart grid technology to help customers effectively monitor and control energy use and costs.

The Complete RangeGE’s LV7000 common DC bus product portfolio meets industrial requirements with a flexible architecture, comprising a
selection of active front-ends, non-regenerative front ends and inverters in the entire power range and voltages from
380V to 690V.
Flexible Configuration, Customized SolutionsCommon DC bus components can be used in a multitude of combinations. In a typical DC bus configuration, the drives that
are generating power can transfer the energy directly to the drives in motoring mode. Common DC bus drive systems have
different kinds of front-end units to meet the requirements of the AC network and the process where the drives are used.
With the right configuration, the drive system can achieve optimal performance and significant energy savings can be
made when braking energy is utilized to its full potential.
Front End UnitsThe front-end units convert the AC incoming voltage and current into a DC voltage and current. The power is transferred
from the AC main to a common DC bus and, in certain cases, vice versa.
Active Front Ends (AFES)The AFE unit is a bidirectional (regenerative) power converter for the front-end of a common DC bus drive lineup. An external
LCL filter is used at the input. This unit is suitable in applications where low harmonics are required in main drives. The AFE
is able to boost the DC link voltage (default +10%) higher than nominal DC link voltage (1.35x UN). The AFE needs an external
pre-charging circuit. However, the AFE does not need any external grid side measurements to operate. AFE units can operate
in parallel to provide increased power and/or redundancy without any drive to drive communication between the units. AFE
units can also be connected to the same fieldbus as the inverters, and controlled and monitored via fieldbus.
LV7000 Drives Application Guide/AE01-11-2015 | 7
Non-Regenerative Front Ends (NFEs)The NFE unit is a unidirectional (motoring) power converter for the front-end of a common DC bus drive line-up. The NFE is a
device that operates as a diode bridge using diode/thyristor components. A dedicated external choke is used at the input.
The NFE unit has the capacity to charge a common DC bus, thus no external pre-charging is needed. This unit is suitable as a
rectifying device when a normal level of harmonics is accepted and no regeneration to the mains is required. NFE units can be
paralleled to increase power without any drive to drive communication between the units.
Inverter Unit (INU)The INU (Inverter unit) is a bidirectional DC-fed power inverter for the supply and control of AC motors. The INU is supplied from
a common DC bus drive line-up. A charging circuit is needed in case if connecting to a live DC bus is required. The DC side
charging circuit is integrated for ratings up to 75kW (FR4-FR8) and externally located for higher power ratings (FI9-FI14).

LV7000 Drives Application Guide/AE01-11-2015 | 15
Ethernet ConnectivityThe LV7000 is the smart drive of choice, as there is no need to purchase additional
communication tools. Ethernet connectivity allows remote drive access for
monitoring, configuring and troubleshooting. LV7000 Ethernet protocols such
as Profinet IO, Ethernet IP and Modbus/TCP are available for all LV7000 drives.
New Ethernet protocols are being continuously developed.
• Modbus/TCP
• Profinet IO
• Ethernet I/P
Safe Torque Off, Safe Stop 1*Safe Torque Off (STO) is available for all LV7000 drives. It prevents the drive
from generating torque on the motor shaft and prevents unintentional start-
ups. The function also corresponds to an uncontrolled stop in accordance with
stop category 0; EN60204-1(IEC Standard) Safe Stop 1 (SS1) initiates the motor
deceleration and initiates the STO function after an application specific time
delay. The function also corresponds to a controlled stop in accordance with
stop category 1, EN 60204-1.
The advantage of the integrated STO and SS1 safety options compared to
standard safety technology using electromechanical switchgear is the elimination
of separate components and the effort required to wire and services them, while
still maintaining the required level of safety at work.
*Requires OPT-AF
Atex Certified Thermistor Input*The option is certified and compliant with the European ATEX directive 94/9/EC, the
integrated thermistor input is specially designed for the temperature supervision of
motors that are placed in areas in which potentially explosive gas, vapor, mist or air
mixtures are present and areas with combustible dust. Typical industries requiring
such supervision include chemical, petrochemical, marine, metal, mechanical,
mining, and oil drilling.
*Requires OPT-AF and IP54/UL Type 12 Enclosure
If over-heating is detected, the drive immediately stops feeding energy to the
motor. As no external components are needed, the cabling is minimized, improving
reliability and saving on both space and costs.

Application Examples
InverterWhen specifying an inverter, start from the process requirements and work through the motor to the inverter.
1. Define the process requirements.
• At the motor shaft = 225Hp (168kW)
• Motor to deliver constant torque from zero to base speed 1800rpm at 460VAC
• Duty cycle requires 150% overload for 60 seconds, with a continuous rating of 225Hp
2. Select motor based on process requirements and compute required inverter kVA.
• 250Hp (188kW)(next standard size up from requirement of 225Hp)
• 1800rpm
• Efficiency = 0.965
• Power Factor = 0.875
• Inverter KVA = kWShaft / (EffMtr x PFMtr)
= 168kW / (0.965 x 0.875)
= 199kVA
3. Compute the continuous current requirements for the inverter.
• IInverter Current = kVAInverter x 1000 / (√3 x 460V)
= 199kVA x 1000 / (√3 x 460V)
= 250 amps
4. Select Inverter based on continuous current and overload requirements.
• Scan the 150% for 60s entries in the 460VAC inverter tables for a frame where the continuous current rating exceeds
250 amps. The frame LV7000-5-0385 5 meets this criterion (300 amps) and is the appropriate inverter for this application.
Regen Source (AFE)When specifying a source, start from the process requirements and work through the motor to the inverter, and then the
associated source. The following example illustrates this process (continuation of inverter application example).
1. Compute kW requirements of the Source. It is assumed that the source is dedicated to the inverter specified in the
application example. It is also assumed that the source is controlled to unity power factor.
• KW at the motor shaft = 168kW
• KW requirement at Source Output = kWShaft / (EffMtr x EffInverter)
= 168kW/ (0.965 x 0.98)
= 178kW
2. Select Source based on continuous kW and overload requirements.
• Scan the 150% for 60s entries in the 460VAC AFE Source tables for a frame where the continuous kW rating
exceeds 178kW amps. The frame LV7000-6-0460 5 meets this criterion (298kW) and is the appropriate AFE Source
for this application.
Note: For sources with peak power requirements in regenerative mode, a different equation is used to compute
power requirements.
kWSource = kWShaft x EffMtr x EffInverter
LV7000 Drives Application Guide/AE01-11-2015 | 19
Non-Regen Source (NFE)When specifying a source, start from the process requirements and work through the motor to the inverter, and then
the associated source. The following example illustrates this process (continuation of inverter application example).
1. Compute kW requirements of the Source. It is assumed that the source is dedicated to the inverter specified in the
application example. It is also assumed that the source is controlled to unity power factor.
• KW at the motor shaft = 168kW
• KW requirement at Source Output = kWShaft / (EffMtr x EffInverter)
= 168kW / (0.965 x 0.98)
= 178kW
2. Select Source based on continuous kW and overload requirements.
• Scan the 150% for 60s entries in the 460VAC NFE Source tables for a frame where the continuous kW rating
exceeds 178kW amps. The frame LV7000-8-0650 6 meets this criterion (368kW) and is the appropriate NFE Source
for this application.
