Power Ring Film CapacitorsTM
SBE UL-recognized Part 700A308911-163
For some customers, the final bank size that meets all
requirements may be too small for all system/grid event
mitigation. In such cases we have created the “bank
hardener” which combines the “Power of the RingTM
with the energy storage efficiency of electrolytics”. This
technique allows for achievement of the desired goals
simply by adding storage bank micro-Farads to handle
all system requirements.
SBE’s Bank Hardener™ allows users of large micro-Farad
banks of aluminum electrolytic, film, or super capaci-
tors to “buffer” the bank from the DC link high ripple
current need of the IGBT yet still meeting the storage
needs of the larger micro-Farad banks. These storage
needs are typically grid ride through, event control, and
driver related needs. This industry-first configuration
can be used to achieve one of two highly advantageous
outcomes:
1. Reduced Aluminum Electrolytic bank size, cost,
and failure points - The overall bank of capacitors
can contain fewer capacitors, at much lower cost,
yet extend the life of the bank by up to 2 to 3 times.
2. Increase Power - The design can facilitate a
substantial system power increase utilizing the
same volume allocated to the original bank, which
is perfect for the migration of existing tightly packed
power cabinets to 0.5MW or 1MW+ system levels.
Lastly, there is no need for the full bank to reside in the
same cabinet any more since the Power Ring buffer
will accommodate all of the tightly coupled DC Link
requirements allowing the storage bank portion to be
positioned anywhere convenient in the system environ-
ment.
SBE is engaging designs in the industry globally.
We are ready to introduce your team to the great
benefits that others in the industry are imple-
menting in their next generation systems. Feel free
