INVERTER HVC-200 - 400V

HVC-200 — compact high-voltage control for one or two electric machines

XAP Technology's HVC-200 is a 400 V high-voltage motor controller for demanding traction architectures, from retrofit vehicles and electric utility vehicles to development platforms. Its 200 kW continuous power rating, liquid cooling system and Motor-Editor calibration tool support compact integration and progressive setup throughout the project.

The HVC-200 combines a 300 to 550 V DC operating range with 240 kW peak power for short durations. Its six phase outputs can control one three-phase motor, one six-phase motor or two independent three-phase motors. This flexibility helps integrators adapt the propulsion topology to the vehicle without systematically adding more controller units.

XAP supports commissioning with Motor-Editor and its Basic, Standard and Expert access levels. Live mapping allows torque and speed behaviour to be refined throughout development, from prototype to production. The HVC-200 supports resolver, Hall, sin/cos, digital SSI and digital encoder position feedback, making it easier to work with the motor sensors selected for the project.

Two independent CAN-FD buses help separate data exchanges between subsystems. Auxiliary inputs and outputs can also control equipment such as pumps, solenoid valves and fans. XAP can therefore help build a consistent architecture around the controller, including its CAN/DBC configuration, sensors, connectors and a harness suited to the vehicle.

Applications

The HVC-200 is intended for retrofit projects, electric utility vehicles, special-purpose machines and research and development platforms that require a configurable high-voltage motor controller.

Key features

• 200 kW continuous power at 400 V and 240 kW peak power for short durations.
• Control of one three-phase motor, one six-phase motor or two independent three-phase motors.
• Up to 1,000 Arms continuous phase current and up to 1,200 Arms peak phase current for short durations.
• Two CAN-FD buses with independent bit rates and an isolated USB interface for setup and diagnostics.
• Liquid cooling, IP65 ingress protection and 425 × 350 × 177 mm dimensions at 12 kg.
• Live mapping through Motor-Editor with three access levels.

Technical specifications and integration

The HVC-200 combines power conversion, motor control and auxiliary input/output functions. Integrators have access to six phase outputs, two CAN/CAN-FD networks, an isolated USB connection and a 35-pin J1 signal connector. XAP can support the definition of the harness, sensors and configuration to match the controller to the selected electrical architecture and motor.

Integration

The battery connects through high-current studs or plates, while the motor phases connect through six U, V, W, X, Y and Z terminals. The system is designed to accommodate 50 to 70 mm² battery cables and 35 to 50 mm² motor phase cables. Final cable sizing must nevertheless account for actual current, cable length, temperature, installation method and vehicle protection devices. The liquid cooling circuit uses two Ø 10 mm push-fit ports for inlet and outlet.

The TE 1-776230-1 J1 connector carries the two external CAN buses, USB, Hall feedback, analogue inputs, resolver/sin-cos signals and auxiliary control signals.

Before installation, XAP recommends validating the motor and its sensors, high-voltage wiring, conductor sizes, protection devices, interlocks, cooling system, CAN termination and software configuration against the applicable installation documentation. Work on a high-voltage traction system must be carried out by qualified personnel.
