Plating Electronic has developed “turnkey” direct current supply systems in skid or container design for electrolyzers. The models of the Power Station series are intended to be suitable for direct current outputs from 100 kW up to 5 MW. In addition to the rectifier itself, control cabinets, subdistribution cabinets, compensation systems, and cooling units are pre-installed on the skid. The container serves as optional protection. With the container, the system achieves protection class IP21; higher protection classes are possible, according to the company.
The technical specifications are flexible. Depending on requirements, customers can choose between switch-mode power supply and thyristor technology. The DC output ranges from 1 to 1,000 volts and 0.5 to 50 kA, with other currents and voltages available on request. Cooling with water or air is integrated, and the system is designed for ambient temperatures up to 35 degrees Celsius as standard. More is possible upon request here as well. The direct current supply features remote monitoring via an industrial fieldbus system and is intended for round-the-clock operation (24/7, 100%).
