Bourns Introduces Planar Signal BMS Transformer Designed for High Voltage Electric Vehicles and Energy Storage Applications
Bourns, a prominent provider of electronic components for energy management, safety, and sensing, has unveiled the market's inaugural planar signal BMS transformer. Catering to the increasing demand for planar technology capable of ensuring dependable and secure communication within the burgeoning sector of high voltage electric vehicles (EV) and high energy storage systems, the U.S. patented Bourns Model SM91806 Planar Signal BMS Transformer complies with essential electrical insulation standards according to IEC 60664-1, IEC 61558-1, and IEC 62368-1.
Introduced to enhance design versatility and durability, planar-style signal transformers are recognized for their cost-effectiveness and dependability benefits when compared to traditional wire-wound transformer models. This is primarily attributed to their multilayer PCB isolation and fully automated manufacturing. The Bourns Model SM91806 not only brings these advantages to the table but also boasts a working voltage rating of up to 1000 VDC, exceptional clearance and creepage capabilities, and conformity with Overvoltage Category II requirements. Additionally, it supports a partial discharge level of up to 1200 V, making it ideal for energy storage systems (ESS).
