New H Series 15kV programmable DC Power Supply provides a stable solar array simulation of Voc up to 1000V and Isc up to 25A. Incredibly fast transient response makes this DC supply an ideal tester for MPPT performance on PV inverter devices. Softpanels are a valuable option.
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.
