Modularity of shelf design provides increased flexibility
TTI IP&E – Europe, a leading specialty distributor of electronic components, is supplying Mean Well power components, including the very latest DHP-1UT-B(HV) mounting rack power shelf, to support electronics engineers designing and building the next generation of renewable and hydrogen energy systems.
“EU Environmental regulations require 45% of Europe’s energy generation to come from renewable sources by 2030,” says Markus Lorenz, Director Industry Marketing, Industrial, TTI Europe. “To achieve this, green energy generated from wind turbines and solar panels must be stored efficiently. Hydrogen is also expected to play a major part in the transition towards a more sustainable future as using hydrogen power is the most efficient way to transport and store energy with higher density and over a longer time frame without losses.”
The Mean Well DHP-1UT-B(HV) mounting rack power shelf for standard 19” cabinets enables a reliable power supply in a modular design and is ideal for applications including electrolysis, distributed power architecture and EV charging stations.
The rack can house up to four Mean Well NCP-3200-380 power supplies in a row to provide 12.8kW power per rack, and up to 10 rack shelves can be connected in parallel to deliver total power of up to 128kW. This modularity gives users the flexibility to scale when additional power is required and to cope with future power demands.
The power rack supports redundancy as power supplies can be set up as an N+1 system, delivering maximum operational reliability. Should a single power supply fail, the operator can easily replace the defective supply without having to disrupt and shut down the whole system.
As part of a wider smart system power solution, Mean Well DHP-1UT-B(HV) is available with power components including the NCP-3200-380 power module and the CMU2 smart power controller.
