  • Patent number: 8441150
    Abstract: A device for connection to an impedance having a mainly inductive character. The device comprises a reactive element. Furthermore, the device is provided with inputs for inputting output signals of electric inverters for parallel supply and at least one output for connection to a supply terminal for a phase of the impedance, such that the device is composed to substantially filter out a high-frequency differential component of at least two output signals during use.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8179066
    Abstract: Method for controlling a load with a predominantly inductive character, whereby in order to feed a phase of the above-mentioned load (3), use is made of at least two connected output voltages, derived from one or several power electronic inverters (11,12;34,35,36), with a given period for switching, modulation or sampling, characterized in that the waveforms of the output voltages concerned are different or have been shifted in time, and in that they are supplied to the load (3) via a differential-mode device (6), whereby during every complete above-mentioned period, at least one of the above-mentioned output voltages is maintained constant and thus is not connected.

  • Patent number: 8143833
    Abstract: The invention relates to a processing unit of a measuring signal related to conditions of an object controlled by power electronics. The processing unit comprises an interface with digital terminals, wherein the interface is provided with at least one terminal for a sensor which generates the measuring signal. Further, the processing unit comprises a calculating unit to which the interface is connected. The calculating unit is equipped with a real-time control system. In addition, the calculating unit comprises a general-purpose processor.
