Description
ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B is an industrial-grade power module (inverter/frequency converter) dedicated to ALSTOM automation systems, designed to precisely regulate the speed and power of electric motors in critical industrial processes. As a core component of the ALSTOM Power Drives series, ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B not only complies with industrial safety standards such as IEC 61800-5-1 and IEC 60947-4-1 but also features high energy efficiency and overload resistance. It is well-suited for applications in thermal power plants (turbine cooling fans, circulating water pumps), oil and gas pipelines (compressors, gate valve drives), and metallurgical plants (conveyor rollers, rolling mill motors)—scenarios where motor performance directly determines overall production efficiency and operational safety.
Product Description
ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B is essentially a three-phase power inverter that converts three-phase AC grid voltage (380–480V AC, 50/60Hz) or DC-link voltage into AC power with adjustable voltage and frequency, providing suitable power for asynchronous or synchronous motors. Its core functions are twofold: first, it dynamically adjusts the motor’s speed, torque, and output power based on commands from ALSTOM controllers (e.g., TC500, CMU 42015-115-00) or position sensors (e.g., POS1846 TRVC062333000 CP00000310); second, it real-time collects motor operating data (such as working current, winding temperature, and actual speed) and transmits it to the ALSTOM D2000 SCADA system via Profinet or Modbus RTU protocols for visual monitoring of motor status.
In terms of performance, ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B achieves an energy efficiency of up to 98.5%, significantly reducing electricity costs in industrial settings. It also supports 150% rated power overload operation for 1 minute, capable of handling transient high-load scenarios such as motor startup and load mutations—for example, the initial current of an oil and gas compressor during startup often reaches 2–3 times the rated value, and this module can stably withstand such impacts. Additionally, the module has a built-in motor protection system that continuously monitors parameters like motor winding temperature, input voltage, and output current. If these parameters exceed safe thresholds, it automatically reduces output power or cuts off power to prevent motor damage from overload, overvoltage, or other faults.
Take a thermal power plant’s turbine cooling system as an example: ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B drives a 15kW cooling fan motor. When the TC500 controller detects that the cooling water temperature is 5°C above the set value, it sends a speed-up command to the module. ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B then increases the output frequency to 45Hz, raising the fan speed to 75% of the rated value to accelerate heat dissipation. Meanwhile, the module feeds back data such as the fan’s current (e.g., 28A) and motor winding temperature (e.g., 75°C) to the SCADA system. If the winding temperature later rises to 100°C (the safety limit), ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B immediately reduces output power and triggers an alarm to prevent motor burnout.
A key advantage of ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B lies in its compatibility and ease of use: on one hand, it seamlessly integrates with the full range of ALSTOM automation components (e.g., PIB1201A 3BEC0067 I/O modules, Harmony HMI) without the need for additional adapters; on the other hand, it comes with a built-in display and Alstom Power Studio configuration software, allowing intuitive setup of operating modes (e.g., “torque control” for pumps, “speed control” for fans) to simplify on-site commissioning.

Advantages and Features
- Dual Advantages of High Efficiency and Overload Resistance: With an energy efficiency of 98.5%, it reduces long-term operating costs; the 150% overload capacity handles transient high-load scenarios (e.g., heavy machinery startup) to avoid frequent shutdowns.
- Wide Motor Compatibility: It supports both asynchronous and synchronous motors without hardware replacement, adapting to diverse industrial scenarios (from pumps to conveyors).
- Comprehensive Protection Mechanism: Dual protection for both the module itself (overheating, short circuit) and the motor (overcurrent, winding overheating) significantly reduces equipment failure rates and extends the service life of motors and modules.
- Seamless Integration with ALSTOM Ecosystem: It connects with ALSTOM controllers, sensors, and SCADA systems without additional adapters, reducing system integration complexity and costs.
- Easy Commissioning: The built-in display allows real-time viewing of operating parameters, and Alstom Power Studio software enables quick configuration of control curves and protection thresholds, lowering the barrier for on-site commissioning.
Application Cases in Industries
1. Thermal Power Plants: Turbine Circulating Water Pump Control
A 300MW thermal power plant uses ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B to drive a 15kW asynchronous motor for its circulating water pump, which supplies water to the turbine cooling system. When the CMU 42015-115-00 controller detects that the circulating water tank level is 10% below the set value, it sends a speed-up command to the module. ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B then increases the output frequency to 40Hz, accelerating the pump to restore the water level. If the pump current exceeds 30A (120% of the rated current), the module automatically reduces output power and sends an overload alarm to the SCADA system, preventing damage to the pump impeller.
2. Oil and Gas Industry: Long-Distance Pipeline Compressor Control
In a booster station of a cross-provincial natural gas pipeline, ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B regulates a 20kW synchronous compressor motor. When the pipeline pressure exceeds the set value by 5bar, the POS1846 position sensor feeds a signal back to the module. ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B reduces the output frequency to 35Hz, slowing the compressor to stabilize the pressure within a safe range. If the module detects an abnormal temperature rise in the compressor bearings, it immediately shuts down and triggers a local sound-light alarm to prevent equipment burnout.
3. Metallurgical Industry: Rolling Mill Conveyor Roller Control
The conveyor rollers of a hot-rolling mill in a steel plant use ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B to drive 7.5kW asynchronous motors. When the weight of the steel billet exceeds the roller’s rated load, the module detects the overload via current monitoring, automatically reduces the output frequency from 50Hz to 25Hz, and halves the roller speed to prevent conveyor belt tearing. Meanwhile, real-time motor operating data is transmitted to the Harmony HMI, allowing operators to monitor the roller status remotely without on-site supervision.

If users employ Siemens or Schneider controllers, corresponding brand competitors may be preferred, but additional costs for synchronous motor adaptation should be considered.
Selection Suggestions and Precautions
Selection Suggestions
- Users with ALSTOM Automation Systems: If ALSTOM TC500 controllers, D2000 SCADA, or other ALSTOM equipment are already deployed on-site, prioritize ALSTOM SDK-C0148 12003-101-01 SBS05M09B for seamless integration and reduced compatibility issues.
- Scenarios with High Overload Requirements: For applications like compressor startup or heavy-load motor drives, the module’s 150% overload capacity can handle transient high loads and avoid frequent faults.
- Synchronous Motor Regulation Scenarios: No additional adapter modules are needed—synchronous motor support is standard, making it suitable for scenarios requiring high speed precision (e.g., precision rolling mills).
- Energy-Sensitive Scenarios: With an energy efficiency of 98.5%, it reduces long-term electricity costs, ideal for 24/7 continuous operation scenarios such as power plants and oil/gas stations.
Precautions
- Installation Environment: The IP21 version must be installed in a sealed control cabinet to prevent dust and moisture intrusion; for outdoor or dusty environments, select the IP54 version.
- Maintenance Cycle: Clean the cooling filter every 3 months and check the tightness of terminal connections every 6 months to prevent module faults caused by poor heat dissipation or loose contacts.
- Firmware Updates: Regularly update the module firmware via Alstom Power Studio to ensure compatibility of protection functions and communication protocols.
- Load Matching: The motor power should be within the 0.75–20kW range to avoid long-term light-load operation of the module (due to undersized motors) or frequent overload protection triggers (due to oversized motors).
