Cool New Products Newsletter for Engineers & Designers #36

This is the second in a series of guides for designers of fixed AC and DC EV charging stations, where we consider control functionality necessary and its implementation. ‘Control’ includes the circuitry required to sense and monitor the charging operation and drive the various power conversion stages appropriately for safe, accurate and efficient delivery of power to the battery.

Thermal management is an important factor in the design and performance of all electromagnetic devices, as it affects device cost, efficiency, reliability, and safety, among other factors. Mathematical modeling and numerical simulation can be used to investigate heat transfer mechanisms, temperature variations, and thermal effects in order to make informed design choices and better predict device performance.

The JUMO ZELOS C01 LS can be used in liquids or bulk solids with temperatures between -40 and +200 °C, also for pressurized tanks or pipes. Thanks to the unique auto-calibration feature, point level measurement is detected reliably and with long-term stability. In addition, after configuration, the 2 switching outputs can automatically distinguish safely between measurement medium and cleaning media or foam.
