DESCRIPTION

Silicon Carbide transistors allow a weight reduction and performance improvement Peak efficiency ratings of up to 98.7% on a wide input voltage range REFUsol 020K-SCI model has enabled REFUsol to receive Plus X Award for this inverter using Silicon Carbide technology. With a nominal power of 20KW AC, the transformerless inverter, which provides one MPPT and a peak efficiency of 98.7%, has been distinguished for innovation, high quality, functionality and ecology. The system uses specific power modules from Danfoss. One of the modules uses Silicon Carbide MOSFET Transistors from Rohm and Silicon Carbide Diodes from another manufacturer. System Plus Consulting is publishing the reverse costing report of the REFUsol 020K-SCI. Based on a complete teardown analysis, the report provides the bill-of-material of the product, an estimation of the production cost of the inverter as well as physical and economical analysis of Danfoss power modules.

This Reverse Costing analysis has been conducted in several phases :

• The initialization of the analysisPictures of the elements to be studied.Identification of the components.

• Description of the material in the “SYScost+” softwareCreation of an “estimation project” of the studied board with SYScost+ software.Construction of the Bill of Material (BOM).

• Assessing the materialSearching for the price of each reference among distributors and manufacturers.Assessing the cost of the PCB and of the unaccounted references (unknown by distributors)The BOM is valued with SYScost+ : price simulation according to the requested quantities.

• Assessing the assembling and test phasesAssembly and test lines are modeled with the SYScost+ software.The assembly and tests costs are estimated.

• Production cost & selling priceEstimation of the production cost & selling price.

• ReportA report is edited.

SYScost+©, is a software tool developed by SYSTEM PLUS CONSULTING to calculate the cost of electronic boards. Moreinformation on the software can be found at www.systemplus.fr.
