MEAN WELL’s BIC-2200 series 2.2kW bidirectional power supplies now available at TTI

The single, compact unit can deliver AC grid power to DC for charging purposes, but when it needs to be discharged, it converts the DC energy back to the AC grid. This innovative bidirectional capability from one, compact unit fulfils the size, weight, performance and cost (SWaP-C) needs for manufacturers of battery formation and test equipment, vehicle-to-grid (V2G) systems, EV charging stations, industrial laser equipment, and kinetic recovery systems.

With built-in functions like active current sharing, remote ON/OFF control and CANBus mode, the BIC-2200 series provides vast design flexibility. In addition, the timing of discharging can be programmed to achieve peak-shaving and valley-filling, reducing electricity costs during the charging process.

“With our close relationship with MEAN WELL and expert knowledge and experience in power supply integration in these wide-ranging charge/discharge applications, we are well positioned to assist in your projects and design developments,” said Ros Kruger, Technical Marketing Director, TTI Europe. “The BIC-2200 bidirectional power supplies enable us to help our customers reduce overall costs and, more importantly, lower maintenance costs and improve system reliability.”
