Groomed for inverters in wind turbines, the company’s low-loss chokes feature a maintenance-free design and long service life. Efficiency is achieved through their compact design and through the use of low-loss materials plus the chokes have now been tested and approved for use in offshore installations. For use in power electronics, power generation, and instrumentation and control, chokes and filters are available for frequencies up to 200 kHz and current ratings up to 1 kA. Other reported features include a high energy storage capacity at low volume, reduced losses, good EMC characteristics, and a cost-conscious design. Depending on the application, components are constructed either as single-conductor chokes for high-current applications, individual chokes, choke modules, or LC filters.
