Abstract:
A power converter for heat tracing applications is disclosed. The power converter includes a controller configured to control an input switching stage. The power converter also includes an output filter, the output filter electrically coupled to the input switching stage. Further, the power converter includes a passive cooling element, the passive cooling element coupled to the power converter. The controller is configured to select a peak voltage and set a power converter output voltage based on at least one of the peak voltage and a power converter input voltage. The passive cooling element is configured to decrease a temperature of the power converter and to obviate the need for cooling with moving parts, making the system viable for hazardous areas in addition to non-hazardous areas. The input switching stage includes a plurality of transistors. The power converter output voltage and the power converter input voltage are both alternating current.

Claim (Index 2):
The power converter of  claim 1 , wherein the passive cooling element comprises a heat sink and the power converter is not cooled by a cooling system with moving parts, enabling operation of the power converter in hazardous areas.
