Container terminals run RTG cranes whose hoist and gantry VFDs create bursty harmonic current that coincides with vessel working windows. Assessing RTG crane VFD harmonics starts at the crane feeder or quay substation with duty-state labels, not from a quiet-shift snapshot.
Terminal productivity meetings often collide with power-quality questions. CNBYG can review AHF/APF fit when measured harmonic current is defined. This article does not confirm crane productivity targets, terminal electrification certification, or a guaranteed harmonic result.

Set the crane-feeder measurement boundary
A logger on an RTG feeder characterizes hoist and gantry duty. A logger at the quay substation or terminal PCC answers a different scope question. Record CT data and how many cranes shared the bus.
For RTG hoist, trolley, and gantry VFD groups on terminal feeders, cover hoist lift, trolley travel, gantry move, idle between moves, and multi-crane coincidence. Note how many RTGs shared the feeder during each window, because coincidence during vessel working peaks can dominate the spectrum.
Ein praktischer Vor-RFQ-Datensatz für diese Anwendung umfasst normalerweise:
- Single-line of quay substations and RTG feeders.
- Spectra during vessel working peaks, not only idle shifts.
- Notes linked to the crane duty and coincidence state for every export.
- Existing filters and capacitor banks on the quay bus.
- Demand trends across at least one busy vessel window.
| Terminal logging focus | Required attachment | Entscheidung, die sie unterstützt |

| Aktivität an der Systemgrenze | Spannungs-/Stromtrends, Transformator- und vorgelagerte Daten | Bereich zur Minderung von Grenzwerten |
| Repeatability across vessel working and shift cycles | Mehrere beschriftete Betriebsfenster | Kapazitäts- und Inbetriebnahmeministerium |

Wichtig: Do not size APF capacity from idle-shift RTG data when the objective covers vessel working peaks (Source: Frequenzumrichter-Oberschwingungsmessung und APF-Auswahl). Multi-crane coincidence can dominate quay feeders.
Separate crane KPIs from distortion claims
Moves-per-hour and harmonic readings answer different questions. A waveform anomaly does not prove a hoist control fault. Keep scopes and acceptance methods separate.
Das IEEE 519 Übersicht helps frame PCC talks; terminals still need local operating cases and contractual language.
Operators should also record hoist versus gantry dominance in each window, because those duty cycles stress different parts of the drive line-up. Keep a short note on which berth and which vessel working window produced each file so terminal and electrical teams can reconcile timestamps during RFQ review. Those notes are short, but they keep quay coincidence windows comparable for quotation.
Shortlist after coincidence evidence exists
Consider AHF/APF when harmonic-current reduction at the terminal medium-voltage or PCC boundary is documented with coincidence notes. SVG may fit reactive swings during gantry moves. Passive options need a quay network study.
| Minderungskategorie | Nützlich, wenn | Vor Anfrage bestätigen |
|---|---|---|
| AHF / APF | Harmonic-current reduction at the terminal medium-voltage or PCC boundary is documented | Spektra, CT-Plan, thermischer Pfad, Schutz, Abnahmeprüfung |
| SVG / ASVG | Schnelle Blindleistungsunterstützung ist das primäre Ziel | Spannungsprofil, bestehende Kompensation, Regelung, Inbetriebsetzung |
| Passive Abstimmung | Eine Systemstudie zeigt eine stabile abgestimmte oder verstimmte Funktion | Resonanzprüfung, Wechsellandkarte, Wartungszugang |
| Betriebliche Änderung | Plan- oder Schichtänderungen verändern die Nachfrage erheblich. | Freigabe durch den Eigentümer und dokumentierte Implementierung |
Assemble a quay RFQ evidence pack
Before suppliers quote, assemble coincidence-labeled RTG spectra, crane-count tables, CT notes, and a marked-up quay single-line. State whether the decision is local crane troubleshooting, terminal-boundary assessment, or harmonic-current mitigation. Present vessel-peak and idle-shift windows separately.
Require the quote to name covered orders, salt-air enclosure limits, and acceptance tests. Include headroom for additional cranes and list filters already on the quay bus. Assign who records coincidence notes and who signs acceptance after berth tests.
Add salt-air enclosure notes, berth outage windows, and a glossary of crane coincidence codes so vessel-peak files are not mixed with idle-shift exports. Include CT polarity checks, sample intervals, and a note describing how many RTGs shared the feeder during each capture. Record expected spare headroom for additional cranes and keep the acceptance checklist owner named before quotation begins.
Überprüfen Sie die CNBYG AHF Aktiver Oberwellenfilter Seite against coincidence-labeled quay data. The automotive plant guide on Frequenzumrichter-Oberschwingungsmessung und APF-Auswahl shows how multi-machine coincidence is documented elsewhere.
Integration under terminal constraints
Document salt-air enclosure ratings, cable routes along the quay, and berth outage windows. Acceptance should replay multi-crane windows comparable to the baseline.
The related industrial measurement scenario in APF- und SVG-Auswahl für den Automobilbau shows how coincidence notes support post-install checks.
Terminal inquiry package

CNBYG can discuss fit and should not guarantee crane productivity targets, terminal electrification certification, or a guaranteed harmonic result. Submit via the CNBYG-Kontaktseite.
Häufig gestellte Fragen
Where should RTG crane harmonics be measured first?
Begin at the crane feeder or quay substation serving the working group, then expand to the terminal PCC if the objective is plant-boundary mitigation.
Do multi-crane coincidence windows matter?
Yes. Vessel peaks often stack several RTGs on one bus, so coincidence notes are required for capacity discussions.
Can idle-shift data size an APF for a busy berth?
No. Quiet-shift spectra understate hoist and gantry duty that define peak harmonic demand.
Ist eine Messung ausreichend, um Sanierungsgeräte auszuwählen?
Rarely at busy berths. Crane coincidence, vessel windows, and objective definition decide whether the data is representative.
Can mitigation equipment be sized from connected crane kVA alone?
No. Connected kVA is context; measured harmonic stacks and coincidence logs drive capacity review.
