Chroma’s new 62000H Series of Programmable DC Power Supplies offer many unique advantages for telecom, automated test system & integration, industrial, battery charge & simulation for hybrid cars and solar panel simulation. These advantage include high power density of 15KW in 3U, precision readback of output current and voltage, output trigger signals as well as the ability to create complex DC transients waveforms to test device behavior to spikes, drops, and other voltage deviations.
The Chroma 8630 BMS Power HIL Testbed incorporates this technology to form a complete BMS test platform by combining cell simulators with virtual DUTs. This supports dynamic real and virtual scenarios, fault injection, and model integration testing, significantly reducing cost of test and making it a highly efficient tool for battery development and testing.
Most ITIC test conditions (i.e. the yellow and green zones on the curve) are easy to achieve with Chroma test equipment. The 500% voltage surge test in the red zone poses a more significant challenge. To help users accelerate product development and validation, we conducted simulations using 105kVA Chroma 61800-100 Grid Simulators.
The Chroma 17010/17010H Battery Cell Charge/Discharge Test System has been adopted and endorsed by major battery cell manufacturers, automotive companies, and energy storage system providers worldwide. This is due not only to its high accuracy in charge and discharge measurements, low output noise, and multi-layered software and hardware safety features, but also to its flexible integration of control commands for safety-oriented environmental chambers.
