Power Electronics in Wrocław – Goes Live!
We are the first to show and tell a little about the new place of our Viessmann Power Electronics R&D Center laboratory in Wroclaw, where we start working with high currents⚡.
The development of our R&D department would not be possible if it were not for the many studies, trials and tests that we have performed so far with our colleagues from the Viessmann Power Electronics Team in Kassel.
Scientific curiosity and perseverance are the source of dynamic innovations and changes in our product range, and the key to effectively meeting the diverse needs of our customers.
In our new laboratory, we are working on high-power heat pump inverters. We test new possibilities of active PFC systems, EV charging, photovoltaic panels, and high-power energy storage and conversion.
Creating a new workplace also involved the purchase of a large amount of specialized equipment, with very high accuracy, thanks to which the results of our measurements are at the highest level. We also place great emphasis on the safety of our employees, which is why all tests are prepared earlier and the tested devices are secured so that everyone feels safe.
We believe that thanks to the commitment of all of us, our projects will be implemented at the highest possible level and always on time.
What can we find in the new part of the laboratory?
Standard lab desk – big screen, docking station, ESD surface, all kinds of useful tools and of course a variety of switched sockets to test our PCBs! We can't forget the safety switch, present in every desk.
Taking a closer look using a digital microscope is always useful.
Multichannel power analyzer and beefy power supplies and active loads – we can supply, measure and dissipate every kW needed, under supervision of our blue friend :)
Digital, 3 phase AC power supply aka portable grid is very useful to test various voltage ranges and disturbances
8 channel oscilloscope and a range of current/differential probes.
Organising lab cables is mandatory.
Modern lab cannot live without a 3D printer.
Small mechanical workshop to play with and modify PCBs.
The Power Electronics team plans to continue developing in the future, so we recommend keeping an eye on our job listings. Who knows, we might be looking for someone to join us in the lab soon :)
