Liquid cooled inverters ready for hot jobs

By Paul Dvorak | March 29, 2010

These liquid cooled inverters will also be available in utility-scale E-Force solar inverters.

A liquid-cooled inverter provides optimal thermal performance in a compact design for applications unsuitable for air cooling. Manufacturer Magnetek Inc. says the liquid cooled inverters are ideal for sealed-structure applications such as near shore wind turbines or wind turbines installed in corrosive environments, as well as locations that require sustained operation at elevated ambient temperatures.

These liquid cooled inverters will also be available in utility-scale E-Force solar inverters, ideal for installation in solar power electrical equipment rooms and high ambient temperature solar power applications. Modular utility-scale E-Force inverters regulate and transform dc power generated by wind turbines or photovoltaic systems into utility-grade ac power, which is distributed to the power transmission grid. The inverters offer peak efficiencies when operating at full power and provide less current distortion by using high-frequency switching. The manufacturer says its compact design makes the inverters easier to install and service. Self-diagnostics and remote monitoring capabilities maximize energy generation. NEMA rated enclosures ensure electronics are protected from extreme temperatures and the elements.
