Description:
M
The Powerex POW-R-PAK™ is a configurable IGBT
S
based power assembly that may be used as a converter,
chopper, half or full bridge, or three phase inverter for
N motor control, power supply, UPS or other power
+DC conversion applications.
C1 C1 C1
The power assembly is mounted on a forced air-cooled
G1 G1 G1
heatsink and features state-of-the-art Powerex IGBTs
E1 E1 E1
A with low conduction and low switching losses for high
B
C efficiency operation. The POW-R-PAK™ includes a low
inductance laminated bus structure, optically isolated
G2 G2 G2 gate drive interfaces, isolated gate drive power supplies,
E2 E2 E2 and a DC-link capacitor bank. The control board
E2 E2 E2
-DC provides a simple user interface along with built-in
Gate Driver Board
protection features including overvoltage, undervoltage
P1 lockout, overcurrent, overtemperature, and short circuit
detection.
