Isolated Bidirectional DC/DC Module - CDC350KAC
Description
The CDC350KAC is a galvanic isolated and fully integrated high-power DC/DC converter module. It is suitable for use in systems within renewable energy, battery charging, energy storage and as a general-purpose converter.
The CDC350KAC is a compact module with a rated DC power of 50kW in a 19” rack module with a height of only 3RU. In addition, it supports bidirectional power flow with a seamless transition between directions of flow and offers a choice of different control modes including current regulation with voltage limitation and voltage regulation with current limitation.
Up to 16 units can parallel in a master-slave system for increased system power levels, while internal fusing on both DC power ports alleviates the need for external components, even in large systems having many parallel modules.
The CAN-bus based master/slave paralleling system is well proven and proprietary to Converdan. It allows very accurate load sharing between power modules in voltage regulation mode as well as intelligently bringing the required number of power modules online, depending on configurable strategies like actual load matching, part-load efficiency maximization as well as module redundancy and wear management.
