Power Electronic Stacks by Product Line
Stack platforms have been designed to serve various applications and power ratings. Platforms benefit from power device selection to fit application requirements including cost optimization and technology upgrade over their life cycle. A documentation set is available which allows fast evaluation. Some platforms provide high versatility while others are less suited for adaptations.
SEMIKUBE®
SEMIKUBE is a highly versatile platform designed to fit high power air- and water-cooled applications. Suitable for outdoor cabinets, this platform can be placed in environments subject to high temperature fluctuations. The platform’s modular design facilitates simple cabinet integration thanks to the separation of the main cooling air flow through the heatsink and its IP54 rated mounting flange. Due to its concept SEMIKUBE has been able to cover voltage rating and topology changes to cope with new energy market needs, like 1500VDC voltage (SEMIKUBE 1500V) and 3level topology (SEMIKUBE MLI).
SEMIKUBE® SlimLine
SEMIKUBE SlimLine platform has been designed to fit air cooled applications in severe environments, and is cost optimized for series production. Suitable for outdoor cabinets, the platform can be placed in environments subject to high temperature fluctuations. Extremely slim, the platform can be mounted into 300mm deep cabinets. The platform design facilitates cabinet integration thanks to the separation of the main cooling air flow through the heatsink and its IP54 rated mounting flange.Extending the SEMIKUBE portfolio, the SEMIKUBE SlimLine platform integrates state-of-the-art hybrid SiC. This family of pre-qualified power assemblies meets rigorous qualifications and certifications. The platform integrates advanced technologies, which maximize performance and power density.
SEMISTACK® Classics
The SEMISTACK CLASSIC family offers a pre-qualified bipolar power assembly ready for integration with rigorous qualification tests and current environmental standards. The platform design has been optimised to achieve the best balance between cost and performance for powerful rectifiers and AC controllers up to the megawatt range.
SEMISTACK® RE
The SEMISTACK RE offers a pre-qualified water-cooled power assembly ready for integration, meeting a rigorous qualification and environmental standard (IEC 60721-3). The platform design, using SKiiP IPM, has been optimized to get the best compromise cost/performance for a water-cooled power inverter in the megawatt power range for high reliability markets. The book format enables a compact integration in standard industrial cabinets to achieve high power, up to 6MVA low voltage. Specified for wind turbine applications, the SEMISTACK RE offers a high IGBT cycling capability and a high capacitor bank lifetime, reducing maintenance.
SKiiPRACK®
The SKiiPRACK offers a pre-qualified power assembly ready for integration following a rigorous qualification and current environmental standard (IEC 60721-3). Based on a “Cell” construction, the SKiiPRACK platform provides high flexibility for designing numerous electrical topologies and for a convenient integration into standard industrial cabinets. The SKiiPRACK has been designed for applications requesting high reliability and a long lifetime up to 20 years. Totally dismountable, the cell concept eases maintenance phases, reducing the time of handling and application stops.
