SatCon Applied Technology Division
Power Conversion Electronics
SatCon Applied Technology has wide-ranging experience in the design
and development of high power-density power conversion electronics for
military, industrial, automotive and commercial applications. SatCon
Applied Technology has produced numerous first-of-a-kind power systems
using leading edge technologies, and the company continues to pioneer
implementation of new technologies to push the power converter state-of-the-art.
For example, the Pulse Power Converter shown here achieves a power density
of 7.5 kW/liter, over 3 times the power density achieved by previous
converter solutions.
We have built power converters ranging from several
kilowatts, all the way up to several megawatts. Many of the systems that
have been built are modular, and can be expanded in power level simply
by adding more of the basic power electronics building blocks. A good
example of this is the DC-DC Converter systems and DC-AC Inverter systems
shown here. These are built around a power conversion building block
of approximately 100kW, and can be expanded to provide up to 3MW for
shipboard power distribution.
Our power conversion experience includes technology, which is directly
applicable to the country’s future alternative energy needs, including
the development of modular motor drives for hybrid-electric vehicle applications,
photovoltaic and fuel cell converters, and bi-directional DC-DC converters
for fuel-cell vehicles.
Our designs are focused on meeting the specific needs of the unique
and challenging applications of our customers – applications requiring
high power density, low noise, special packaging requirements, high temperature
environments, to name a few. We look forward to addressing your special
power conversion needs.
