HVDC transmission moves power across hundreds of miles with lower losses than AC, but every converter station has to hold a massive DC-Link steady while keeping its control electronics safely isolated from voltages that can reach hundreds of kilovolts. Vishay's DCMKP power electronic capacitors deliver the DC-Link capacitance HVDC and STATCOM systems demand, while VOW135 and VOW136 optocouplers provide the high isolation voltage and noise immunity that keep control circuits protected from the converter's high voltage side.
Behind every mile of power 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.
