The TMdrive-10e2 Dual Purpose Drive enables a smooth transition

from DC to AC motor systems, offering unmatched flexibility,

simplified upgrades, and improved efficiency for modernization

projects.

Seamless Transition from DC to AC Motor Systems

The TMdrive-10e2 Dual Purpose (DP) Drive is engineered to support

modernization efforts by allowing users to control either DC or AC

motors using a single hardware platform. By simply switching the

firmware between DC and AC configurations, operators can phase

upgrades to meet operational schedules and budget constraints.

Initially configured for DC motor control, the same TMdrive-10e2 DP

unit can later power and control a new AC motor without replacing

the drive. This flexibility minimizes downtime, maximizes investment,

and supports long-term system scalability.

Features and Benefits

• Standard TMdrive-10e2 uses IGBT gating with Pulse Width Modulation

• Four quadrant regenerative operation from DC armature

• Non-reversing, non-plugging field power

• Standard TMdrive-10e2 converter DC source used for all AC and DC drives

• Converter operates with reduced harmonics and unity power factor for

reduced impact on the plant power system
