 Author(s)   H. Weiss, A. Schmid, H.-G. Schwabe 
 Abstract   The de-ionised water cooling system of a 15 MVA static frequency converter of the German Railways is driven by a 20 kW induction motor fed by 50 Hz mains. An interruption of the 50 Hz grid results in a sudden stop of the flow of the cooling water, and this is accompanied with an overheating and pressurised steam generation inside the cooling system at high power dissipation points. Therefore, as a consequence of such a line interruption the plant presently has to shut down in an emergency procedure, even if the voltage dip at the 50 Hz side is only less than 1 second. The proposed UPS delivers energy to the motor of the pump for the de-ionised water at line voltage dips via a special converter arrangement from the 220 V battery of the plant respectively from the 16 2/3 Hz side providing smooth take-over of power and potential separation while yielding low freewheeling losses. The converter arrangement uses a surplus standard variable frequency converter and added components.
