The Thrust | 200 Modular Traction Inverter is designed to meet the following 4 basics.

To be able to meet the first two design goals, the Modular Inverter consists of 3 basic modules: the power stage, the motor control unit (MCU) and the drive control unit (DCU).  The water cooled power stage as well as the control units are designed in cooperation with reliable and well  experienced partners in the power electronics industry. The focus has been put on the use of highly reliable, high temperature resistant, automotive grade components for these 3 modules. Robust housings protects the power stage, MCU and DCU. The power stage / MCU housing enables firmly connecting the DC voltage terminals (DC in) and motor (AC out). Waterproof interface connectors are used for the inverter control cables.

High power and efficiency is obtained by using a power stage with a modern and powerful  IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transisitor) module in combination with smart algorithms for the control of the IGBT module.

Because the EV market has not fully matured yet, the Modular Inverter had to be designed with a very powerful control system. This makes it possible to use the same hardware (to reduce production costs), while changing the functionality by changing existing or adding new software modules when required. The Modular Inverter is the right solution for a wide range of applications.

The Modular Inverter will be launched into the market at a competitive price. We at Centric Automotive strongly believe that the high price of electric drive systems nowadays, hinders successful introduction of EV's into the world market. We expect that competitive pricing, combined with the high performance and reliability of the Modular Inverter, will rapidly increase the sales and enables Centric Automotive to produce the inverter in relative high numbers.
