Intepro’s ANEVH(F) bidirectional DC supply delivers 50 kW of power

Intepro Systems’ new Aniuo ANEVH(F) Series is a bidirectional programmable DC power supply and regenerative load that can deliver up to 50 kW in a 4U rack-mounted chassis. A single unit works as both a programmable source that delivers power to a connected device and a sink that absorbs power and returns it to the grid.

The series spans power ratings from 5 kW to 30 kW in a 3U package, up to 50 kW in 4U. It offers seven voltage ranges, from 0 V to 2,250 V, and multiple units can run in parallel to create systems expandable up to 1 MW. Energy flows in both directions, and the unit switches automatically between sourcing and sinking.

When it acts as a load, the supply returns absorbed energy to the grid instead of dissipating it as heat. Combining the source and the regenerative load in one chassis saves rack space and reduces the heat a separate load bank would add, and it recovers test energy that would otherwise be lost. Intepro says the result is industry-leading power density.

The ANEVH(F) Series offers fast dynamic response and includes built-in function generators, standard test curves and an arbitrary waveform generator for producing custom waveforms. It integrates with PowerStar, Intepro’s test-development software, which lets engineers build test programs by filling in fields rather than writing code or assembling graphical components.

Bidirectional supplies and regenerative loads like the ANEVH(F) are a staple of EV battery, powertrain and charger test benches, where the energy pulled out of a pack during cycling can be fed back to the grid rather than burned off as heat.

The ANEVH(F) Series starts at $8,730 and is available with six to eight weeks of lead time.
