Step less control of motor three phase voltage. Flexibility is more due low power control circuitry. Smooth acceleration and deceleration of the three phase motor.
Easy implementation of current control. Simple protection against single phasing or
unbalanced operation in three phase motors. Absence of current inrush.
Low maintenance for applications requiringfrequent starting and stopping.

Soft start of three phase induction motors
SIRIUS 3RW40 (Siemens) is the star among our standard soft starters. It is not just the only 2-phase-controlled soft starter in the world for use in the power range up to 250 kW (at 400V) respectively 300 hp (at 460V)

Salient features as energy saver
The motor losses primarily depend on three factors:
o Loading on the motor
o Magnitude of applied voltage and
o Quality of motor construction.
The most significant factor is motor loading.

A three phase booster pump is used for boosting thenormal system pressure. Used by fire departments, sprinkler systems, heatingsystems, fluid storage tanks, pools, dairies, food
processing plants, commercial industries, industrial plants, aerospace, mining, etc.
The fluid types that they pump range from wastewater,salt water, sewage, sludge, ash, liquid metal, gasoline, oillubricants, chemicals and coolants. The three phase
booster is used on so many different types of applicationsincluding pumping uphill beyond the lift of another
pump.

Three phase air compressor
The three phase air compressor has a closed loopcontrol on the maximum tank pressure using three
phase voltage controller while the regulator sets the pressure to the air hose. There are thin metal valves thatopen and shut with air pressure. The cooling finsdissipate heat that is produced by any compression. Therate at which a three phase air compressor can deliver avolume of air is done in cubic feet per minute. Due tothe fact that atmospheric pressure plays a role in howfast air moves into the cylinder, the cubic feet per minute will vary.

Speed control of conveyor belt
using ac voltage controller A three phase conveyer belt consists of two or
more pulleys. One or both of the pulleys are powered, moving the belt with the materialon the belt forward. The powered pulley iscalled the drive pulley and the non powered
pulley is called the idler.

Temperature adjustment of three phase kiln
The three phase kiln was designed to dry,harden or burn materials during it's operation,depending on exactly what type of applicationyou are going for. Grains can be dried in a three
phase kiln as timber can be dried to cure it. Clayis hardened through a three phase kiln whichactually turns it into ceramic as it changes thechemical composition of the clay. Wood can beturned into charcoal through the burning stageof the three phase kiln.

Speed control of Grain Mixer
The three phase grain mixer is used to mixand blend uniformly, particles of grains of different sizes, moisture content and bulk density. Mixing grains requires motion of the
particles, which is what the three phase grainmixer does. This is done with mechanical
forces from the three phase grain mixer withaugers, reels, chains and drums.

For 0 60 before the T 1 conducts two thyristors conduct.
Once T 1 is fired, three thyristors conduct. A thyristor turns offwhen its current attempts to reverse. The conditionsalternate between the two and three thyristors.
For 60 90 , only two thyristors conduct at any time.
For 90 150 , although two thyristors conduct at anytime, there are periods when no thyristor conducts.
For 150 , there is no period for two conducting thyristorsand the output voltage becomes zero at = 150

In the absence of a neutral connection, two thyristorsappear effectively in series with the load across thesupply.
Therefore, for current to flow through the load, at least
two thyristors must conduct simultaneously. Pulses are applied at intervals of 60 to various
thyristors in sequence the same as that of the supplyvoltage
For triggering angles exceeding 90 each thyristor isswitched on by both the leading and delayed pulses,thereby conducting twice in each cycle

Mode2/2 and mode 0/2 describe the operation of thecircuit for firing angles ranging from 60 to 90 and from90 to 150 respectively
Due to the different switching patterns, the load voltagesfor the three modes are also different. Let the supplyvoltages be

A three phase, six pulse 50 kVAR TCR (thyristor controlled reactor consisting
back-to-back connected thyristors with pure inductor) has an input line-line
voltage of 415V, 50Hz, AC supply and a set of three inductances, which are
connected in delta. Calculate (i) inductance rating, (ii) rms inductor current, (iii)
maximum THD of phase current and its value and corresponding delay angle.
