To test the efficiency of this
reference design, use the following equipment as shown in Figure 3-34:
- A Chroma 617xx series three phase
AC power supply to test PFC mode and an AMETEK, Agilent DC power supply of 800 V
to support inverter mode (TIDA-01606) of operation.
- A 110-kW Simplex PowerStart (or any
three-phase resistive) load bank is used as a configurable load to test the
design at various set points.
- A Tektronix PA4000 Precision Power
Analyzer
- An external BK precision bench
power supply is used to provide a 15-V input to power the DUT.
The final design dimensions are
outlined in Table 3-11 and show a total volume of 7 L. With a power rating of 10 kW, this results in a
power density of 1.44 kW/L.
