Grid Simulator (4 Quadrant AC source) for Grid-Tied Inverter Testing, Vehicle to Grid (V2G) Testing, AC Power Product Testing, & More! 36kW model from the 9410 series.

Key Features and Functions

The 9410 from NH Research is a four-quadrant (bi-directional) AC/DC source with selectable phase outputs, a built-in waveform-digitizing measurement system and robust line disturbance creation tools. When used in the regenerative (sink) mode, it sends returned power back to the facility mains rather than being dissipated as heat. The most frequent application of the 9410 is use as a grid simulator for testing PV inverters and other grid-tied products for compliance to industry standards.

Features

• 8 models – 4kW/10.5kVA to 96kW/252kVA
• Output AC Voltage Ranges – 175, 350VRMS L-N
• Output DC Voltage – 200, 400VDC
• Output Frequency – DC, 30 to 100Hz
• Programmable 1, 2 or 3-Phase modes
• Full 4 quadrant AC source operation
• High resolution waveform capture on all V & I
• Sink power regenerated back to facility
• 9” Touch-Panel user interface
• SCPI programming & NI LabVIEW drivers

Advantages

• Bi-directional AC – Inverter testing & μgrid simulation
• More reactive power per kW
• Simplifies automated test stand development
  – Software selectable 1, 2, or 3 Phase operation
  – Isolated digital inputs & outputs
  – Built-in SW watchdog & safety limits
• Software tools to shorten test development time
