Power Modules for Rack-Mount Power Converters

Vincotech 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. The flow90PIM 1 includes; 600V and 1200V IGBT technology for low conduction losses, Supports design with 90 degree angle, Clip-in PCB mounting, and Clip or screw-on heatsink mounting.

The flow90CON 1 includes; 1600V Input rectifier optionally half controlled, Compatible with flow90PACK 1, Clip-in PCB mounting, and Clip or screw-on heatsink mounting. The flow90PACK 1 includes a choice of 600V IGBT3 technology or 1200V IGBT4 technology in a six-pack configuration and Supports designs with 90 degree mounting angle, Clip-in PCB mounting, and Clip or screw-on heatsink mounting.

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.
