Programmable-power converters now modular

By KRemington | June 3, 2010

The PowerModule PM3000W is a programmable, flexible and modular power converter platform for use across multiple wind-energy applications.
The PowerModule line of power converters contain advanced Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBT) and can operate in series or parallel for higher power ratings. The PM3000W features advanced grid compatibility control and a compact package that yields a high power density, up to 130 W/in.³ (7.9 W/cm³). Furthermore, the double conversion architecture includes a common laminated dc bus with dynamic control, IGBTs, control algorithms and liquid cooling. Additionally, OEM proprietary algorithms can reside in one, or two, of the DSPs.
