The difference between series intermediate frequency furnace and parallel intermediate frequency furnace

Time: 2019-05-28

Comparison of advantages and disadvantages of induction furnace series resonant power supply and parallel resonant power supply:

project name

Series induction furnace

Parallel induction furnace

Power factor

 

High power factor:. ≥0 95, because the series rectifier intermediate frequency furnace of all SCR are in the fully open state

Low power factor:≤0 .92, because the rectifier and intermediate frequency furnace with all SCR are in a semi-open state (according to the national grid requirements need to add extra compensation)

Large capacitance

 

Large reactance

 

harmonic

Low harmonics, low pollution to the grid

High harmonics, large pollution to the power grid

effectiveness

High efficiency can be 10%-20% higher than parallel power supply

Low efficiency because of low power factor and large harmonic pollution

start up

 

Startup success rate is 100%

Because the series resonant power supply is frequency modulated, the power is adjusted by adjusting the frequency of the inverter, so the starting rate is high. 
 

 

Start success rate<100%

It is difficult to start the device under heavy load conditions.

 

use

 

Easy to use

Series resonant power supply can realize one-to-one, one-to-two, one-to-three, and other working modes

 

Inconvenient to use

The parallel resonant power supply can only achieve one-to-one operation mode.

 

protection

 

Complete protection

Overcurrent protection, overvoltage protection, phase loss protection, high water temperature protection, low water temperature protection, high water pressure, low water pressure, etc.

 

 

Complete protection

Overcurrent protection, overvoltage protection, phase loss protection, high water temperature protection, low water temperature protection, high water pressure, low water pressure, etc.

 

Reliability

 

High reliability

Proven reliability exceeds parallel resonant power supply in field use

 

High reliability

The technology is more mature than the series resonant power supply. 
 

Equipment cost

 

High equipment cost

Because the tank current passes through the thyristor filter, it uses capacitive filtering.

 

Low equipment cost

 

Energy saving

 

10% to 20% energy saving compared to parallel power supply

 

Relative series is not energy efficient.
