Bidirectional drives at current ratings up to 1,200 A, with 380 to 480 VAC or 800 VDC input, designed for the most stringent utility requirements.
Bidirectional: motor or generator on the same hardware
Active or passive front end, 50 to 60 Hz
Silicon carbide options alongside the IGBT line
800 VDC input for direct DC-bus connection
Meets IEEE 519 harmonic limits on its own; conventional drives need external filters to get there.
The same hardware runs motor and generator duty, delivering grid-quality 380 to 480 V, 50 or 60 Hz power with UL 1741, ATEX, and CE.
800 VDC input connects directly to data center DC distribution, storage, and generation; most drives are AC-only.
Output frequencies to 2,000 Hz turn the compressor down to with no hot-gas bypass and no throttling losses.

It converts the high-frequency output of the permanent magnet generator into grid-quality power.
It supplies the variable-speed power that spins the compressor, controlling speed and load precisely across the operating envelope.
No. The active front-end design holds harmonics within IEEE 519 limits on its own, which removes the filter cabinet from the installation.
Yes. The drive is supplied as a standalone subsystem, with control firmware matched to your machine and packaging options for your enclosure and cooling architecture.
At Sapphire's factory in Cypress, California. Every drive is assembled, load tested, and thermally screened there before shipment.
