The Challenge

A new drawbridge replacing Seattle’s iconic South Park Bridge required a modern drive control system to support safe, reliable bridge operations.

The Solution

PowerFlex")® DC digital drives precisely control motor velocity and position for raising and lowering bridge draw spans. CENTERLINE")® 2100 Motor Control Centers") integrate power and control in one centralized platform. ControlLogix")® controller manages bridge subsystems and functions.

Results

The drive controls provide reliable operation to support the flow of ground and marine traffic. Commonality with other Seattle bridge control systems helps maintain consistency in maintenance and inspection procedures.

Key Takeaways

  • The drive controls provide reliable operation to support the flow of ground and marine traffic.
  • Commonality with other Seattle bridge control systems helps maintain consistency in maintenance and inspection procedures.
