Description

The National Research Council Canada (NRC) has a requirement to replace seven existing industrial control cubicles, refurbish the associated 21 motors, and replace the associated power and control cabling, for operation at the NRC High-Speed Wind Tunnel Facility.
These custom-built control cubicles are integral components of a larger, critical system and must seamlessly integrate with the facility's interlocks, safety, and control systems.

The control systems and interfaces are a mixture of PLC, PAC, and NI CompactRIO.
Each control cubicle must house all components required for the manual control of three motors, plus be equipped for future automation. This includes:
• three ABB model ACS880-01-07A4-7 variable frequency drives or equivalent, each with an externally-mounted panel, I/O extension, and PROFINET communications
• power conditioning to motor output
• safety devices for multiple power sources, including circuit breakers, fuses, emergency stops, panel-mounted disconnects, and indicators
• Electrical and mechanical interlocks for three modes; VFD manual and automatic, and Direct-On-Line
• Safe-Torque-Off (STO) inputs
• Inputs for absolute feedback

Contract duration
