IEC 0-21 certified conversion system, to connect rotating machines to the power grid.
The heart of the GE40 POWER BOX, is the GE40 POWER UNIT: the regenerative AC-AC unit with low electromagnetic interference emission that manages the energy exchange with the grid at cos Ф≃1 while maintaining sinusoidal line currents.
GE 40 Power Unit consists of the Active Front End (AFE) regenerative AC/DC converter that manages the energy exchange with the power grid. Moreover, with a smart conversion system based on IGBT technology, it provides power exchange with only the power line active (cosФ close to one) while maintaining sinusoidal line currents. Active Front End (AFE) technology allows for energy savings in all applications requiring the regeneration of energy to the grid.
