Six-Pack Modules for Book-Sized Inverters and Power Supplies
Vincotech's new innovative flow90 sixpack modules are designed for book-sized inverters and rack-mounted power supplies. They are available right off the shelf with Vincotech's smart-yet-simple flow90PACK 0 and flow90PACK 1 modules rated for up to 75A and up to 1200V.
Many of these applications require a 90 degrees angle between the heat sink and PCB, so engineers had no choice but to go with a flexible PCB or costly L-shaped heat sink. Now the space- and cost-saving sixpacks in flow90 0 and flow90 1 housings are here to solve that problem.
Packaged in flow90 housings, they eliminate the need for L-shaped heat sinks, cutting costs by half. The pins on these modules are arrayed at a 90-degree angle, so there is no need for a flexible PCB. What's more, a layout with this angle between the heat sink and PCB reduces the footprint by as much as 40%.
Optional clip-in versions are available for even easier assembly. They slot right into the PCB on the same side as other through-hole components.
Features:
- Modules comply with DIN and IEC standards
- Topologies are easily customized
- Pre-applied phase-change material available on demand
- Optional clip-in PCB mounting helps simplify assembly
- Can be wave-soldered along with the other components in one pass
- Thermo-mechanical, push-and-pull force relief
- Available in two sizes::
- flow90 0 - 38 x 66 x 21 mm
- flow90 1 - 35 x 84 x 21 mm
Main benefits
- Eliminates the need for L-shaped heat sinks to slash costs
- by as much as half
- Compact housing enables 90° angle between heat sink and
- PCB for up to 40% savings
- Installs on the same PCB side as other through-hole components
- Optional clip-in PCB mounting helps simplify assembly
