OP1420 Microgrid PHIL Test Bench

PHIL Test Bench

OP1420 | Microgrid

From the Name Most-Trusted in Real-Time PHIL Simulation

Universities around the world are rapidly adopting PHIL technology to their research laboratories, providing a major advantage to their students and researchers. However, the complexity, time, and high costs for them to create their own test bench remains a challenge.













Backed by over 20 years of experience working with the industry and top research laboratories in the world, OPAL-RT has developed the most complete Microgrid PHIL Test Bench. The test bench is ideal for any type of microgrid application research, by allowing users to have hands-on experience by testing real components in various operating conditions.








Everything You Need for Power Hardware-in-the-Loop

Building a quality PHIL setup requires components to be carefully selected not just for their technical capability but also for their inter-compatibility. With the Microgrid PHIL Test Bench, OPAL-RT has taken the guesswork and risk out of PHIL with a turnkey product that offers one of the highest performance and versatile setups in the market.

Power Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) Process

PHIL is an extension of Hardware-in-the-Loop testing, in which the real-time simulation environment is capable of exchanging power with devices under test (DUTs). The DUTs are interfaced to the simulator using a power amplifier, which is controlled by the simulation.










The Perfect System to Optimize Your Testing And Validation

Turnkey

Save time and reduce integration costs with an intuitive and ready-to-use solution, instead of wasting time ordering and integrating your own test bench constituent parts.

Trustworthy

Be backed by a company with over 20 years’ experience in PHIL simulation. The Microgrid PHIL Test Bench was specially designed for PHIL applications, as it ensures closed-the-loop stability.

Safe

The OP1420 Microgrid PHIL Test Bench has overload, short circuit and over temperature protections. Enjoy a safe environment and guarantee one to others.

Microgrid Simulation Meets Power Lab

Building a quality PHIL setup requires components to be carefully selected not just for their technical capability but also for their inter-compatibility. With the Microgrid PHIL Test Bench, OPAL-RT has taken the guesswork and risk out of PHIL with a turnkey product that offers one of the highest performance and versatile setups in the market.
