The VFG provides a superior power supply for Electric Submersible Pumps (ESPs) and other variable speed load applications.
Canadian Advanced ESP Inc. has developed a unique, patented product called the Variable Frequency Generator (VFG). This power generating system provides variable frequency and variable voltage to the load. The output waveform produced is pure sinusoidal, eliminating the need for VFDs, harmonic filters and sine wave filters.
The product is available in two power categories:
Low Voltage VFG
Available in power ranges from 60ekW to 330ekW these units use a step-up transformer to achieve desired ESP load voltage.
Medium Voltage VFG
Available in power ranges from 430ekW to 2eMW and voltages up to 4800V, these units do not require a step-up transformer to achieve desired ESP load voltage.
Both systems supply clean power that dramatically improves the MTBF of the down-hole equipment. Systems run cooler and longer. Combined with an improved electrical efficiency, the VFG reduces investment capital and operating costs.
