Vincotech announces the release of two product families featuring 3-level topologies dedicated to solar inverter and UPS applications. The flowBOOST 0 Dual and flowNPC 0 families address a power range of up to 15kW. The families respectively offer the dual Boost and Neutral Point Inverter topologies used in 3-level solar and UPS systems. Advantages of the 3-level approach include lower cost and higher efficiency, due to the use of 600V components. These modules achieve a maximum European Efficiency (EE) of 99% per module.

The highest efficiency is achieved by the flowNPC 0 family members featuring the parallel switching of a CoolMOS and an IGBT. flowNPC 0 further features regenerative power capability, an emerging requirement in solar inverter applications. The modules are housed in Vincotech’s proven flow0 package. At 33x66x12mm and featuring its clip-in mechanism, the flow 0 is a compact package.
