A battery energy storage system (BESS) has to switch massive battery racks onto a live DC bus without a surge that damages contacts or triggers a fault, then keep watching every busbar connection for the heat that signals trouble. Vishay's PTCEL series PTC thermistors handle that inrush current limiting directly, absorbing up to 240 J and surviving 100 000 switching cycles, while NTCALUG ring-terminal NTC thermistors bolt straight to busbars and heatsinks to monitor temperature in the system's hardest working spots.
Behind every safe connection is The DNA of tech.®
With over six decades of experience developing components designed to withstand high temperature and humidity conditions, Vishay's components are engineered to ensure exceptional reliability, featuring such qualifications as AEC-Q100, AEC-Q101, and AEC-Q200.
Components withstand temperatures up to 180 °C in harsh environments
Industry's lowest RDS(on) optimized for gate drives
