New modular and bidirectional dc power system

By Michelle Froese | October 16, 2024

AMETEK Programmable Power recently announced the new Sorensen Modular Intelligent Bidirectional Energy AMplified (Mi-BEAM) Series. The Mi-BEAM Series is the newest addition to the AMETEK Programmable Power portfolio of high-power testing solutions.

The Mi-BEAM Series features full dc source and sink capabilities with power levels from 12 up to 37 kW. The Mi-BEAM Series is fully scalable up to 1.2 MW with parallel systems. The available voltage ranges of 600 V, 1,500 V, and 2,000 Vdc in a 4U rack height chassis provide full power up to 150A within a single system.

The Mi-BEAM Series is designed for testing today’s complex, high-power electronics, including for electric vehicles. This platform covers all test needs through the product life cycle from advanced research and development (R&D), to design validation and production test requirements.

  • Battery simulation
  • Battery testing (charge/discharge)
  • Electric powertrain testing
  • Fuel cell testing

Features:

  • Complete solution — battery test and simulation software included
  • Highest power density up to 37 kW in 4U rack height (9.25 kW/U)
  • Fastest and cleanest power available (fastest transient response and low output ripple and noise)
  • Longest manufacturer-based reliability guarantee: Five-year warranty
  • Parallel system power up to 1.2 MW
  • Output voltage up to 2,000 V
  • Bidirectional output current up to ±150 A, up to ±4,800 A in parallel
  • True extended wide-range autoranging output
  • Regenerative to 95%
  • Color touch panel user interface
  • Seamless transition between source and sink
  • Built-in islanding detection
