Power modules for solar inverters

Vincotech, a provider of power, gps and hybrid modules has released two new product ranges dedicated to solar inverter applications.

According to Vincotech, the flowSOL 0 BI and flowSOL 0 RI families cover solar inverter systems of up to 10kW. The ranges have been designed to meet the needs of isolated and non-isolated solar system topologies. Non-isolated systems are catered for by a single module solution from flowSOL 0 BI (Boost + Inverter). A two module solution, combining members with optimised chipsets from flowSOL 0 BI and flowSOL 0 RI (Rectifier + Inverter), are designed to address the non-isolated solar inverter market. Vincotech's solar modules reach a maximum European Efficiency (EE) of 99.3%; achieved via the optimised module design and the combination of the latest chip technologies, such as SiC diodes and CoolMOS. Low cost versions featuring fast Si diodes instead of SiC are also offered. The modules are housed in Vincotech's flow 0 package.
