Converter for Testing Bay

C POWER FOR TEST BAY APPLICATIONS

Rotary converter systems are particularly in demand for the diverse special requirements from power supply systems in electrical test bays; this is thanks to their stability, network quality, precision, overload capacity and, finally, thanks to their reliability.

For these reasons, clear preference is given to rotary converter systems (over static converter systems) for test bay supplies. To simply and clearly display complex systems and thus guarantee safe and smooth operation, customers are offered the option to visualise these converter systems, either using a PC or touchscreen.

Low maintenance and extremely easy servicing and operation complete the profile of a unit that has been successfully established on the market for decades. We guarantee you optimum and reliable power for special applications.

Arduous test bay conditions
Thanks to a tailored design, calculation, production and testing, C POWER delivers the specified power reliably, without limitation, anytime.

Service life >25 years – unrivalled reliability
With proven and robust engineering, the C POWER offers troublefree intensive and unlimited use for more than 25 years.

Reliability: MTBF >50,000 hours

Increased efficiency
Thanks to the high efficiency of the engine and alternator, test specimens can be supplied as economically as possible with minimal losses.

Maximum serviceability
The modular arrangement of the switchgear simplifies all service work.

Safe operation
Comprehensive protection and monitoring by microprocessor controller.

Simplified user operation
The touchpanel of the control station offers intuitive user navigation. Easy to read even in strong sunlight, it is also dust- and water-tight and suitable for use in the most adverse conditions. The resistive touchscreen is straightforward to use even when gloves are worn. A fault recorder logs all events.
