Port Cranes: Performance Evaluation of Custom Harmonic Filter Design Webinar

January 9, 2020
Alexandria, VA

On January 9th, Niranjan Patil, Marcelo Lara and Rackley Dawson from TMEIC presented a webinar on harmonics which included an overview of how to better deal with these “ghosts in the closet”. Port Cranes of both the container handling and bulk handling varieties have in common a very vexing problem which has proved to be elusive in fixing for as long as cranes with variable speed drive systems have existed. Harmonic frequencies generated by the drive systems controlling motors on the crane can be induced back into the balance of the crane’s electrical system and further onto the electrical grid feeding the crane. These Harmonics can cause all kinds of trouble to other equipment sharing the same circuit.
