Hiconics

Medium-voltage motor-drive cabinets with distinct air- and water-cooling architectures.

Hiconics began in Beijing in June 2003, listed in Shenzhen in 2010 and came under Midea Group control in 2020. Its industrial-drive operation is separate from its photovoltaic and residential-storage businesses. The medium-voltage catalogue describes complete cabinet systems: power conversion, transformer cooling, control and plant interfaces. Its water-cooled design gives a detailed example of how serviceable power units and a recirculating cooling loop fit into that system.

01

Drive development predates the group’s later energy businesses

Hiconics’ official chronology distinguishes enterprise milestones from the development of its cooling and energy products.

  1. 2003–2010

    Beijing origin and listing

    The company dates its founding to June 2003 and its Shenzhen Growth Enterprise Market listing to 2010, under code 300048.[1][2]

  2. 2013–2015

    Cooling and drive expansion

    Hiconics records its first water-cooled product in 2013 and expansion into low-voltage drives and energy-conservation/environmental-protection business in 2015.[2]

  3. 2020

    Midea Group control

    The corporate history identifies Midea control in 2020. This is distinct from the original establishment of the drive company.[2]

  4. 2023

    New-energy research and photovoltaic operation

    The chronology records formation of Hefei Midea Hiconics Photovoltaic Technology and establishment of a Suzhou research centre. These are part of the wider new-energy business development.[2]

The company’s present scope

The current brand page uses Hiconics Technology Co., Ltd., while the footer identifies 北京合康新能科技股份有限公司. It separates high-voltage frequency converters, residential energy storage/photovoltaic inverters and green-energy solutions. A medium-voltage motor enquiry follows the industrial-drive route, with its own electrical system and support requirements.[1]

02

The industrial catalogue includes load testing and ageing facilities

Manufacturing quality is presented in the context of the drive business, while the wider company’s bases cover more than one product activity.

Published test activities

The catalogue’s manufacturing spread describes mechanical back-to-back testing under real load and separate test and ageing platforms. It also describes external water-circulation technology and shows manufacturing operations. These are the manufacturer’s stated facilities and practices; a purchase specification can use them to request the applicable factory-test scope and records for the ordered system.[4]

Company locations and business contact

The current brand overview describes dual research and manufacturing centres within four Chinese bases. Its business-specific contact page locates the medium-voltage drive operation at No. 3, Boxing 2nd Road, Beijing Economic-Technological Development Area. Photovoltaic and storage contacts are listed separately, including the Hefei photovoltaic operation. Those roles should remain distinct in a drive-system proposal.[1][3]

03

HC1000 naming separates voltage from rated capacity

The air-cooled catalogue explains HC as Hiconics, 1000 as the general H-bridge drive route, and separate codes for output voltage and rated capacity.

Catalogue modelOutput voltageRated capacity codeListed weight
HC1000-060/002506 kV250 kVA1919 kg
HC1000-100/0027510 kV275 kVA2240 kg
[4]

Read the code with the correct table

These entries come from the fifth-generation double-side-operation tables. The naming section identifies 060 as 6 kV, 100 as 10 kV and capacity codes in kVA. Keep voltage and apparent capacity separate from the motor’s mechanical power, current and duty; the full motor and supply specification is needed to select the system.[4]

Physical installation is substantial

The listed cabinet weights make transport, room access and installation part of procurement. The catalogue also separates front-side and double-side operation layouts and provides different cabinet dimensions. An agreed general-arrangement drawing should establish door opening, service space and the actual delivered configuration rather than applying one layout across the family.[4]

04

Air-cooled selection includes service access, bypass and plant communication

The catalogue describes the drive as a coordinated cabinet system with power, control and monitoring features.

Power and cabinet control

The air-cooled description identifies a single-control-board system, optical-fibre communication and carrier phase shifting. It lists front-side-operation options and distinguishes bypass as an optional function, alongside synchronous transfer. A proposal needs to say which of these arrangements is included and how it interfaces with the existing motor and switchgear.[4]

Signals and operating information

The catalogue names Modbus, Profibus and Ethernet module choices. It also describes fault classification/storage and monitoring of key-component temperatures within a digital maintenance platform. Identify the actual communications hardware, signal list and site-control responsibilities so the plant can use the operating data from the offered cabinet.[4]

05

Water cooling is divided between the transformer, power units and circulation package

The water-cooled catalogue spread provides a useful breakdown of the installed thermal system. Each part has its own service and site interface.

Enclosed transformer heat exchange

The transformer section identifies a dry-type transformer with air-to-water heat exchange, cooling-water inlet/outlet and an enclosed arrangement. Its IP42 statement appears specifically in this transformer section. The product configuration should retain that scope rather than applying the enclosure rating to every component or air-cooled cabinet.[4]

Parallel power-unit cooling and service connections

The power-unit cabinet description identifies parallel water connections for flow distribution and a separate air duct for electrolytic capacitors. It describes double-stop quick connectors that allow power-unit replacement without draining the loop. The distinction is practical: the unit cooling circuit, capacitor airflow and replacement access all belong in the service plan.[4]

A recirculating treated-water loop

The circulation package lists a buffer tank, pump, plate heat exchanger and deionisation resin. The catalogue describes stainless-steel loop components, a separate deionised-water treatment bypass, secondary water-to-water heat exchange and PLC monitoring. Site cooling-water conditions and the supplied circulation package should therefore be agreed together, alongside cabinet temperature monitoring and plant alarm signals.[4]

06

The technical package should describe the installed medium-voltage system

Electrical, thermal and service interfaces need to remain visible in the documents used to compare and accept the equipment.

An external standards reference

The national standards platform names the earlier company identity 北京合康亿盛变频科技股份有限公司 among the drafters of GB/T 30843.3-2017, covering safety requirements for variable-frequency drives above 1 kV and not exceeding 35 kV. The record also identifies a revision project. This establishes a historical drafting contribution; conformity of the supplied cabinet requires its own applicable documents and agreed acceptance criteria.[5]

Prepare the actual plant interfaces

Provide motor and grid data, process duty, room layout, preferred cabinet-service direction and existing switchgear. For a water-cooled system, add the site-water interface and proposed circulation-package boundary. Name communications modules, bypass/transfer arrangements, factory tests and commissioning work in the proposal. These details connect Hiconics’ documented cabinet designs to the installation being purchased.[4]

Buyer questions

Where is Hiconics’ medium-voltage drive operation?

The current official contact page identifies the medium-voltage AC drive business at No. 3, Boxing 2nd Road in Beijing’s Economic-Technological Development Area.

Does the HC1000 model suffix directly state motor kW?

The catalogue naming rules identify separate output-voltage and rated-capacity codes, with capacity in kVA. Use the complete model table together with the motor and grid data.

What makes the water-cooled system different?

The catalogue separates transformer heat exchange, parallel power-unit water circuits, capacitor airflow and a treated-water recirculation package with monitoring.

Is bypass included in every air-cooled drive?

The catalogue describes bypass as an option. The actual proposal should state the bypass, transfer and switchgear arrangement supplied.
