Reversible electroplating rectifiers «KULON» (DC power supply)
Products - Catalog
«KULON» is a series of modern modular switching mode power sources (SMPS). It converts three-phase input line voltage with parameters ~400V 50/60Hz into stable and clean direct current. The series includes a variety of types depending on output current and voltage ratings, with top power of 50 kW and top current of 2000A.
«KULON» contains all necessary devices inside including circuit breaker and filters. It doesn’t need any additional equipment to be connected externally. As a switching power source it has highly stable current with low harmonic distortions.
Features:
- Modular configuration
- Large power (18-20 kW) per unit block
- High efficiency up to 91%
- Easy to operate
- Low cost
- Compact size and light weight
- Forced air cooling
- Low current ripple
- Support RS-485/Modbus RTU network
«KULON» consists of diode line rectifier, inverter with IGBT, transformer and output rectifier blocks. Dimensions of the power source are 650х480х220 mm. Compartments with electronics have an IP54 which prevent corrosion of susceptible components. With such protection the power source can be installed directly near the electroplating bath it feeds. The power source has a forced air cooling system.
One can order reversible type of «KULON» if needed polarity switching. The reversing module is installed inside and it doesn’t enlarge dimensions of the box.
Connection of several (up to 8) «KULON» in series or parallel is possible to increase power. No additional synchronizing units are needed in this case.
Controlling the «KULON» is done by embedded console or by remote console (option)
DC Power sources of «KULON-50»
Power up to 50 kW, оutput current up to 2000 A
DC Power sources of «KULON-20» series with remote control
Power up to 20 kW, оutput current up to 1000 A
DC Power Module sources of «KULON Flex» series
Power up to 18 kW, оutput voltage up to 15 V,
оutput current up to 1200 A
«KULON Flex» is a new series of DC power supplies (since 2024), characterized by reduced overall dimensions while maintaining power compared to the "KULON-20" series. The module includes a new control panel with a graphic display and advanced functions. One module contains two separate sources, called channel A and channel B. Each channel can provide an output voltage of up to 15 V and an output current of up to 600 A. The channels can be used as separate independent sources - 2 x 15 V / 600 A. They can be connected in parallel and get an output current of up to 1200 A at a voltage of up to 15 V. They can be connected in series and get an output voltage of up to 30 V at a current of up to 600 A.
DC Power sources of «KULON mini»
Power is up to 5 kW, оutput current up to 400 A
DC Power sources of «KULON micro»
Power up to 2 kW, оutput current up to 100 A
