Overview

The 2.5 kVA inverter uses MOSFET and IGBT technology arranged in a double conversion topology to convert a nominal 110V DC input supply into either a 110V or 240V AC single phase 50 Hz output supply. This topology offers substantial efficiency and weight benefits compared to a conventional single stage design.

The first conversion stage uses high frequency switching to boost the input DC voltage to an intermediate high voltage bus. The second stage pulse-width-modulates this link voltage to produce a switched single-phase AC output voltage, which is then internally filtered to produce the final pure-sinusoid output waveform.

The converter operation can be readily monitored and adjusted using an isolated RS-232 interface.

The 2.5kVA Bulk Inverter is designed and manufactured for use in Indian Railways coaches.
