Vincotech announces the release of the extension of its housing family flow90

Vincotech, a supplier of module-based solutions for power electronics, announced the release of the extension of its housing family flow90, with the new flow90 0. The flow90 housings are used for standard products with CON, PIM, and PACK configurations and make the most of the PCB to minimize the application‘s footprint.

Vincotech’s flow90 1 as well as the new flow90 0 housings feature a space-saving package enabling a 90-degree angle between heat sink and PCB. These modules allow the installation of the power module on the same side of the PCB as other through-hole components. Featuring pins arrayed at a 90-degree angle, there is no need for a flexible PCB. 

The flow90 modules eliminate costly L-shaped heat sinks and enables easy mounting by clipping the module right in to the PCB. The flow90 housing comes in 2 sizes: flow90 1 with 35 x 84 x 21 mm and the new flow90 0 with 38 x 66 x 21 mm.
