Categories Related to Custom Power Supplies
A custom power supply is a power supply assembled to order with variable capacity, output, and other specifications to suit the purpose of use.
Custom power supplies include welding power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies, ESS (energy storage systems), and various other types of power supplies, depending on the purpose of use.
In recent years, there has been a trend toward replacing storage batteries in power supplies that used to consist of lead-acid batteries with nickel-metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries and then trying to reduce running costs.
In response to CASE, it is expected the reuse of car batteries and other batteries that have been installed in electric vehicles will be activated in the future.
Custom power supplies are manufactured with variable capacity, output, and other specifications according to the intended use.
Typical applications include the following:
This section describes the principle of custom power supplies. A custom power supply generally consists of a battery management system (BMS), storage batteries (lead-acid, nickel-metal hydride, or lithium-ion batteries), a charger, and a DC-AC inverter.
The system is customized by changing the type of storage batteries and the control method through the battery management system to vary the capacity, output, and other specifications according to the application.
The storage battery is the most important part of the customization process, and lithium-ion batteries are generally used these days.
There are two main types of lithium-ion batteries: output type and capacity type.
Output-type batteries can be used to build custom power supplies for applications that require instantaneous high currents, such as welding power supplies.
With capacitive storage batteries, custom power supplies can be built for applications that require high energy density, such as ESS.
