Absopulse Debuts CTP6000 Series Inverter

May 11, 2004 by Jeff Shepard

Absopulse Electronics Ltd. (Carp, Ontario, Canada) debuted its new CTP6000 Series inverter, which delivers three-phase, 6,000 VA precision-regulated, sinusoidal voltage from single-phase, 24 Vdc, 48 Vdc, 125 Vdc or 250 Vdc inputs. The inverter is suitable for driving ac appliances in industrial, utility, telecom and marine environments, and is also well suited for use in fuel cell, solar cell and wind power conversion systems.

The solid-state inverter incorporates microprocessor-controlled, high-frequency, pulse-width modulated technology to synthesize precision-regulated sinusoidal outputs of 208 Vrms, 380 Vrms or 415 Vrms (phase-to-phase) at 50 Hz, 60 Hz or 400 Hz, with less than 5 percent total harmonic distortion at full load. The floating outputs are isolated from each other and can be connected in a Y configuration or left as three individual outputs.

The CTP6000 is fan-cooled and rated for operation over 0 °C to 50 °C with -40 °C to +60 °C available as an option. The inverter is housed in four, stacked 3U x 19 in x 15 in enclosed chassis. The company also offers an extensive range of other single-phase and three-phase sine-wave inverters from 30 VA to 12 kVA. The CTP6000 is priced at $6,770 for quantities of one to four.
