Product Overview
The Marine Type PROTEUS Frequency Converter system consists of one or more rectifier and inverter modules, which consist of power electronics components with a modular structure. The system has a double conversion structure and first converts the AC voltage to filtered DC voltage with the rectifier module, then the inverter module converts this filtered DC voltage to the AC frequency and voltage standard that the load needs.
PROTEUS Series can operate in parallel with different voltage sourcessuch as generators and other SFCs. Load sharing is done without the need for any communication, thanks to its programmable droop control feature.
Technical Highlights
- By parallel connection up to 40MVA can be supplied.
- High power factor with regenerative power and PWM rectifier structure with low current IGBT
- High reliability operation due to the modular structure and spare module.
- Fully isolated output with optional output transformer
- Load sharing with SFCs of different power and generators
- Bi-directional working due to four quadrant operation without any problem and feeding to the mains. Power can always flow to both directions.
- Enhanced mechanical durability with optional vibration absorber pads
- Touchscreen with color graphic display

Where the PROTEUS Series is used
Frequently asked questions
Answers taken from the PROTEUS Series datasheet.
What power range does the ENCLOVE PROTEUS Series marine frequency converter cover?
The PROTEUS Series covers 40kVA to 40MVA. The datasheet states that by parallel connection up to 40MVA can be supplied, and the output power factor is 0.9.
Can the PROTEUS Series frequency converter feed power back to the mains?
Yes. The datasheet lists "Bi-directional working due to four quadrant operation without any problem and feeding to the mains. Power can always flow to both directions." It can also operate in parallel with different voltage sources such as generators and other SFCs, and load sharing is done without the need for any communication thanks to its programmable droop control feature.
Does the PROTEUS Series have a 400Hz output option for marine and military applications?
Yes — a separate 400Hz specification table gives an output of 400Hz ±%0.1 at 115VAC/440VAC ±%1 (3 PHASE), both noted as MIL-STD-1399 (Tip III) compliance for marine applications, at >93% efficiency. That model also lists MIL-STD-167-1 Standard Compliance / MIL-T-17221B & VDE530 Standard Compliance / MIL-STD-461E Compliance.
What are the operating temperature, humidity and altitude limits of the PROTEUS Series?
Operating temperature is 0 – 50°C and humidity is <95% without condensation. Temperature de-rating is 2% power loss per 1°C up to 50°C above 40°C, and operating altitude de-rating is 1% power loss for every 100m up to 2000m over 1000m. Ingress protection is IP20, up to IP55 optional.
How is the PROTEUS Series monitored, and what communication options are available?
The unit carries a 7 inch. Toucpanel with colour TFT, and the datasheet states all parameters are monitorable over the user friendly touch panel. A wide range of communication options is listed among the main features; the datasheet does not name the individual protocols.
Which standards and marine certificates apply to the PROTEUS Series frequency converter?
General standards are ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, IEC62103 / EN50178; CE. Marine certificates are available on request (BV, DNV GL, ABS, RINA, CCS, LR).
