Advanced Power Electronics Test Equipment & Automated Test Solutions
Power electronics are evolving rapidly. Higher voltages, faster switching technologies, bidirectional power flow, electrification, energy storage, and AI infrastructure are creating new demands for precise, reliable, and efficient testing. Chroma Systems Solutions provides advanced power electronics test equipment and automated test systems engineered for today’s most challenging validation and production environments.
From R&D and design verification to high-volume manufacturing, Chroma delivers programmable AC and DC power sources, regenerative electronic loads, bidirectional DC power supplies, battery cyclers, grid simulators, power meters, electrical safety testers, and automated test systems. Our solutions help engineers improve test accuracy, reduce energy consumption, accelerate validation, and increase production throughput.
Test Solutions that Help Shape the Future
Chroma supports next-generation applications across electric vehicles, EV charging, battery and energy storage systems, AI servers and data centers, solar and renewable energy, power conversion, and industrial electronics.
As 800V EV architectures, high-voltage batteries, SiC and GaN power devices, bidirectional charging, and high-density power conversion continue to advance, engineers need test systems capable of reproducing real-world operating conditions with exceptional precision. Chroma’s high-power, regenerative and bidirectional test platforms provide the flexibility needed to test EV inverters, onboard chargers, DC/DC converters, battery packs, charging systems, power supplies, energy storage converters, and grid-connected devices.
Whether you need a single instrument or a fully integrated automated test system, Chroma combines advanced measurement technology, application expertise, software, fixtures, and system engineering to solve complex testing challenges.
PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: Regenerative AC Electronic Load
Highly Efficient Testing for Renewables
The Chroma 63800R’s regenerative feature makes it a highly efficient energy-saving solution ideal for renewable energy applications, including ESS, hybrid PV inverters, AC EVSE, and bidirectional onboard chargers (BOBC) for V2L and V2H applications.
Traditional loads have a large footprint and convert consumed power into heat, leading to significant energy consumption and requiring cooling systems to prevent overheating. In contrast, the 63800R recovers energy with up to 89% efficiency. A single unit can save 116,946 kWh of electricity per year, equivalent to 45,258 kg (99,777 lbs.) of carbon emissions.
