VINCOTECH'S NEW PFC MODULE DRAWS MAX POWER FROM THE GRID
-- Pumping up applications' performance with flowPFC 0 CD -Unterhaching, Germany, December 02, 2015 – Vincotech, a supplier of module-based
solutions for power electronics, today announced the release of flowPFC 0 CD modules.
Engineered to optimize energy quality and consumption for welding, SMPS and embedded
drive applications rated from 1 to 6 kW, these power factor correction modules draw
maximum power from the grid.
The new flowPFC 0 CD modules feature highly efficient rectifiers with a shunt resistor current
sensor and ultra-fast, two-legged PFCs with diodes for zero loss current sensing via external
transformers.
Equipped with the latest 650 V IGBT chip technologies,
these modules can serve to attain switching frequencies
up to 75 kHz. flowPFC 0 CD modules ship with integrated
thermistors for temperature monitoring and snubbing
capacitors to improve EMC.
The new flowPFC 0 CD line comes in compact, low-inductive
flow 0 housings 12 or 17 mm in height. These modules will be
manufactured in series in early 2016.
