Welcome to Power Electronics

PRESIDENT LETTER

“CUSTOMER ORIENTED

STRATEGY WITH PERSONAL

APPROACH ”

Since 1987, Power Electronics has paved their way to success driving high power applications. At that time, the industrial and agriculture sectors which were deeply involved in process retrofit and automation, found variable speed drives and soft starters a revolutionary opportunity to improve efficiency and control.

Since then, the company has grown and improved its product features by considering market needs. Above everything, we listened carefully to our customer´s requirements and suggestions. Without their help, the special requirements that are to be satisfied today, would have been harder to achieve.

Far from satisfied, Power Electronics has increased its industrial product portfolio and has also developed the Solar Division, which within a few months was positioned among the world leading manufacturers of solar inverters. We are considered the unique world class supplier of Medium and low Voltage AC drives and soft starters.

Everything is possible due to the exhaustive technical development, the full dedication of all our employees, and a continuous investment during the last 25 years, which makes us look at the future with great excitement.

POWER ELECTRONICS

Since 1987, we knew what is going to be the key to our success. Obviously, the company has changed, we grew, we become a multinational, but something has remained the same, our customer service, or what we now call “Power On Support”.

David Salvo LilloVicepresident

For Power Electronics, service is important, but quality and technological innovation are just as important. Corporate values that together with a continuous investment, allow us to manufacture cutting-edge technology in our Industrial and Solar divisions all around the world, and at the same time to offer products designed for the ever-changing customer needs.

Lalo Salvo LilloVicepresident

Power Electronics is a story of a personal challenge; the story of hundreds of employees who have brought Power Electronics to where it is now. It’s the story of thousands of clients who trusted us and still do. It’s the story of its founder, the story of Abelardo Salvo, the story of the hard working father of all the members of this great family and an example for everyone.

SAVING ENERGY

POWER ELECTRONICS

In Power Electronics we know that the modern world is getting faster and more complicated by the day, and that often priorities in life can get confused. When we design and create our products, we don’t only think about numbers and graphs, we think about our clients, their companies and their surrounding environment, like they are our own.

And that is exactly why we understand that there are more things in life, not only work. We don’t want our clients to worry about our products; we want them to save their energy so that they can invest it in the things that really matter, their families, their friends, their hobbies...

We will take care of the rest: we will set up free technical seminars and courses so that our clients and their technicians can get to know the products as well as we do, we will assist with the commissioning with no additional cost because we believe in work well done, we will offer you a 24hr phone line so that you can always ask what you want to know no matter the time of day or night, and we will never let our clients down if they have a problem... We will take care of all these things so that you can save your energy for things that really matter...

Our environmentally friendly products will help your company to reduce your energy bill and greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, we consider ourselves playing a main role in converting sustainable growth into a reality, by using industrial energy saving measures and renewable energy sources.

Power Electronics history is underwritten by the personal achievement and courageous attitude of its founder Mr. Abelardo Salvo, who became a pioneer in power electronics development. He began his activity in Valencia (Spain), where outstanding technical 24h/7d service and great features which variable speed drives and soft starters offer to the industrial and agriculture sectors, created an opportunity that Power Electronics took by developing their own products.

Since the beginning, high quality service assistance and latter, an international expansion strategy, have been the key points to the company´s growth. After inaugurating the factory and R&D centre in the Paterna’s Technologic Park, Valencia (Spain), Power Electronics’ expansion kicked off. Truly convinced by the effectiveness of local technical service, Power Electronics opened new subsidiaries in Australia, Brazil, Chile, China, Germany, India, Italy, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, United Kingdom, South Africa, and distribution centres in over 20 countries with local partners who share our customer oriented philosophy POWER ON SUPPORT.

HISTORY

In 2010, high demand in renewable energies pushes Power Electronics to create its own solar inverter brand Freesun by releasing LVT Series and HE Series. In a few months, these products were positioned in the market among the leading manufacturers.

Market trends and requirements change at great speed, hence Power Electronics inaugurates a new R&D centre in Madurai (India), and a new production centre in Higueruelas, Valencia (Spain). This outstanding growth allowed us to release new products in a short time frame: low voltage and medium voltage products for industrial sector (SD500, SD700KOMPAKT, SD700FL, SD700FR, VS65 and XMV660), and inverter products in the PV solar sector (Freesun HEC, HEC-UL, HES, HET).

We continue growing at great speed every year, and anticipate the near future will be of advancement and expansion, consolidating the 40 markets we are already present in, and keep adding new horizons to our future.

SD700Consistently the SD700 has offered a wide range of low voltage variable speed drives which are of high quality, designed to maximise motor care, reliability and reduce maintenance. Today the SD700 is divided in four product series: SD700, SD700 KOMPAKT, SD700 FREEMAQ FL, SD700 FREEMAQ FR, which satisfy the most stringent standards and customer’s needs. The SD700 range are premium drives suitable for tough applications in large facilities that offer what clients demand built-in as standard such as; EMC filtering, Harmonic filtering, dv/dt filter, ultra-fast fuses, totally sealed electronics, unique iCOOL-filterless system, full frontal access, monitoring and macro tools...features that reduce your investment and maintenance costs.

FREEMAQSD700FRSeries110kW-2000kW / 380V-480V, 525V, 690V

The SD700 FR is based on an Active Front End technology (AFE), replacing the traditional thyristor-diode rectifier bridge for an IGBT rectifier bridge. This technology enables a fully controlled bidirectional power flow (energy regeneration), cosine phi control, immunity to high voltage drops and a reduced THDi. The SD700FR Regenerative drive will reduce your energy bill, by not wasting the regenerated energy in braking units.

FREEMAQSerieSD700FA100A-630A / 380V-480V, 525V, 690V

Freemaq SD700FA active harmonic filter (AHF) injects reactive and harmonic current to improve displacement power factor (cos φ), harmonic distortion (THDi) and voltage stabilization in your electrical distribution system. The 3-wire SD700 FA AHF monitors the load current or the line current at the point of interconnection, and injects the inverse current wave that cancels the harmonic distortion. SD700FA includes the most accurate dynamic harmonic cancellation algorithms offering a high performance at any load condition to comply with IEEE519.

SD700KOMPAKTSeries110kW-800kW/ 230V, 380V-500V, 525V, 690V6, 12 pulses

When space saving is desired, the SD700 Kompakt series with a power density up to 800kW/m3 is your most suitable solution. The Kompakt range maintains the advanced features reducing the size up to 2.5 times. This product is suitable for new installations or a replacement to older non supported products as a competitive solution. The SD700 Kompakt range offers top input power and a bottom output motor cable.

FREEMAQSD700FLSeries2.2kW -2000kW / 380V-500V, 525V, 690V
