Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. launched Evergreen?, the next-generation modular high-power platform, with two new air-cooled Vento? products. With 2.5X higher output power than the current generation of high-power modular solutions, Evergreen delivers high-performance, optimized AC-DC conversion with fast system configuration for instant customization and power scaling.

Addressing the growing demand for high-power, high-efficiency, high-power-density bulk AC-DC power conversion across a variety of industries, the new Evergreen platform of modular converters includes the 10 kW FCM10K air-cooled, hot swapable module in a 2 U x 3 U footprint and the 30 kW FCM30K shelf. By connecting multiple shelves together on an industry-standard 19? rack, customers can meaningfully scale total system output to ultra-high power levels for demanding precision power applications.

The Evergreen platform also provides system-level communication and control from a single point of command. Mobile device connectivity, following on soon, will allow wireless identification, configuration, status check, debugging and retrieval of ?black box? data for easy troubleshooting without the need to remove the unit.

Evergreen achieves 0.98 power factor for > 95% efficiency, reducing utility costs. With 38 W/in3 power density, this compact solution delivers more high power in less space. Both efficiency and power density of the Evergreen platform are significantly increased from current generations.

Designed for rapid factory configuration, Advanced Energy?s Evergreen solution is backed by the company?s dedicated, rapid engineering modification team to configure each product to match specific application requirements. Built in a premium, fully automated, high efficiency manufacturing environment, Evergreen modifications are reliable and repeatable.
