On Europe's path to climate neutrality by 2050, electromobility is the key to the energy transition. High-speed fuses, capacitors, cooling systems, and laminated busbar systems designed for high-voltage and high-current applications ensure compact, reliable, and efficient energy distribution.

With specialized expertise in power electronics, thermal management, and protective devices, Mersen is driving the next generation of electromobility. The laminated busbars provide a compact, low-inductance solution for power distribution in electric vehicle drivetrains, battery modules, inverters, and charging systems. The custom connections reduce parasitic inductance and assembly complexity, improve thermal performance, and increase reliability. Their multilayer construction optimizes routing, mechanical stability, and EMC in compact systems.

The busbars developed for SiC power electronics are based on insulation materials such as polyimide and polyaramid, which ensure resistance up to 180°C (356°F)—far above the standard value of 105°C (221°F)—and enable reliable operation under extreme thermal stresses in highly efficient EV systems.

The EVpack and M fuses protect the load of electric and hybrid vehicles. They interrupt high DC fault currents with low let-through energy, thereby protecting systems and passengers. They comply with ISO 8820 and UL 248 standards and are designed for voltages from 100 to 1,000 VDC and currents up to 800 A.

With a breaking current below 2 kA, they meet the specifications for DC switching devices and are suitable for battery packs and distributors. The compact design and low I²t values enable space-saving, high-performance protection.

High-Performance Thermal Management

Vacuum-brazed, liquid-cooled cooling plates ensure efficient thermal management for power modules in electric vehicles, chargers, and inverters. They are designed for high heat flux and water tightness. The ECS LV100 MAXX platform reduces pressure losses and supports stable switching in silicon and SiC modules such as LV100, XHPTM, and LV NHPD2. The cooling plates are tailored to module dimensions and meet strict thermal limits while maintaining a compact design and high density.

Infinicell is a standardized, scalable platform for EV battery cell connections. Each module integrates prismatic cells, laminated busbars, liquid cooling, and EVpack fuses into a plug-and-play unit for high-voltage systems. A laser bonder interface enables a robust, fast connection between the cell and the busbar—more than four times faster than wire or ribbon connections. (kr)
