BMOD0094
75 Volt Energy Module Overview

The new BMOD0094 E075 Energy module delivers the level of energy that guarantees safe operations and grid power quality for the most powerful wind turbines pitch drives and backup power generation systems. Based on a compact, robust construction and top grade components, it is designed for reliability and safety under harsh temperature, humidity and vibration conditions.
 
The standard monitoring and mechanical interfaces enable a quick integration into existing infrastructures and remote monitoring systems. The module delivers the long life time that energy solution providers can rely on to minimize the cost of downtimes.


75V Module Features & Benefits:

  • 75V operating voltage high energy cell - provides a compact, high energy density back up energy source;
  • Over 10 years of operations - longer life time that reduce downtime and maintenance costs;
  • -40 to +65 degrees Celsius operations - operations in a wide range of temperatures allowing reliable implementations in any region of the world;
  • PT100 based temperature monitoring - enables energy operators to accurately monitor the temperature of the module for remote maintenance purpose;
  • Passive Balancing maximizes the lifetime of the module thus decreasing total cost of ownership for the customers;
  • Robust connector and construction;
  • Reliable connection to the control system even under harsh conditions;
  • IP54 compliance - stable operations in a dust and humid prone environment enables reliable implementation in any region of the world;
  • SAEJ 2380 vibration resistant - enables reliable installation in a vibration prone environment such as wind turbines, machinery, etc.;
  • 1600 Isolation Voltage - enables up to 4 modules to be safely connected together in series to power the largest pitch systems or high voltage power quality stations.

Applications:

  • Wind turbine pitch drive system
  • Renewable energy (Wind, Solar, Wave) power quality
  • UPS / Backup system for heavy industrial applications such as textile, CNC machinery, semi conductor equipments
