What Matters in Inverter & BESS Applications?
Moisture Protection
Sealing and encapsulation can help protect sensitive electronic assemblies from moisture and environmental exposure.
Thermal Cycling
Materials should be evaluated for repeated temperature changes and the resulting expansion and contraction.
Electrical Protection
Potting and encapsulation materials can provide electrical insulation and protection for selected components.
Vibration Resistance
Adhesive and sealant selection should consider vibration and mechanical stresses experienced during operation and transportation.
Selecting the Right Material for the Assembly
A correct adhesive or sealant selection starts with the component and process requirements rather than the product name alone.
