How the DPR-01 starting device allowed a quiet start from a distance, without electric lowering substation
harvesting fronts
The remote start allowed the extraction fronts to be moved without problems
observed in practice
Less time spent with operational logistics and less expense with auxiliary facilities
of risks
The remote start, without construction of substations, reduced the chances of accidents
CSN - Mineração Casa de Pedra, in its facilities in Congonhas-MG, needed to start directly the machines operating in its open pit mine, which were at great distances from the load centers. The solution adopted until then was the construction of lowering substations as close as possible to the extraction fronts, but this required large investments in the facilities and in their relocation, since the extraction fronts were constantly advancing. Solving the issue, therefore, was a challenge:
Technical studies were made by CSN and SENIOR Engenharia professionals that resulted in the design of starting devices acting via serial capacitors.
SENIOR, as a supplier of industrial equipment, manufactured the devices, which had the expected result and started to be used regularly.
More flexibility, security and economy
Details:
The starter devices have provided considerable improvements in operation by eliminating the costs of building auxiliary substations, optimizing the time spent on logistics, reducing accident risks and providing greater flexibility for extraction fronts.
Details:
The developed device applies to direct starts of any induction or synchronous motor and should only be adapted to the conditions of the local power supply network. It is a simple, operational solution with a favourable cost/benefit ratio.
