GOLETA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Transphorm Inc. today released the first complete 3.3-kilowatt (kW) continuous conduction mode (CCM) bridgeless totem-pole power factor correction (PFC) reference ...
If you operate electric motors in your manufacturing facility, you may be paying for wasted power. The power factor of your electrical system gives the amount of productive power your facility is ...
When it comes to the most typical cause of poor power factor in a facility, motor inductance is a likely culprit. The problem worsens when motors are not loaded to their full capacity. Harmonic ...
• Electrical power sources supply two types of power to inductive loads: real power in kW and reactive power in VAR. • Power-factor correction circuits can be either an individual style or of the bank ...
Fairchild Semiconductor’s Power Factor Correction (PFC) Smart Power Module (SPM) implements the Partial Power Factor Correction Switching Converter (PSC) circuit topology, which is ideal for 1-kW to 3 ...
A medical system employs a 1-kW, four-phase, interleaved single-stage PFC circuit that provides a regulated 150-V dc from a single-phase 115-V ac, 60-Hz power source. This regulator serves as the ...
ELECTRONICS: Pioneer Magnetics introduced a 10kW Rectifier (PMI 36220B-8P). With power factor correction and in keeping with PMI’s standard setting 5 inch x 5 inch package, this super high power ...
While applications for 1-Phase PFC are now familiar and prevalent, the same is not the case with 3-Phase PFC. Many equipments using kilowatts of power from 3-Phase mains should be candidates of ...
Understanding power factor (PF) is important because it gives us a clear understanding of the efficiency of an electrical system. Put simply, it’s the ratio of true power and apparent power, which ...
Single-phase power factor correction (PFC) circuits—a kind of front-end AC/DC converters—are ubiquitous in a variety of consumer electronic devices, including laptop adapters, LED driver power ...
Electric motor power efficiency has taken center stage. Individuals, corporations, and governments are increasingly interested in saving power, now that technology can make it possible and economy ...
Most discussions on manufacturing energy efficiency focus on identifying easy-to-find-and-fix energy wasters such as compressed air leaks, inefficient lighting, equipment that is always left on when ...
