Concentric AB is at the forefront of high-voltage component technology and is a leading innovator in thermal management solutions. Our EMP-branded range of high-voltage fans and coolant pumps was developed for use in the heavy-duty commercial EV sector. At a nominal 700V DC, the powerful 15-inch fan can produce up to 4,000 CFM (6,760 m3/h) of airflow at a static pressure of 2.0 in H2O (498 Pa). This performance has never been achievable from any low-voltage component of similar package size. The high-voltage coolant pumps can also produce superior performance compared to low-voltage counterparts of similar spatial geometry, allowing Concentric to offer a full range of high-voltage coolant pumps with power ranges from 1 to 5KW. These include the well-developed features and durability of our proven low-voltage pumps, including the seal-less technology. Typical applications include battery-, power electronics- and fuel cell cooling. The brushless DC 32-inch electric fan is capable of up to 20kW of power while producing an airflow of 19,000 CFM at 4.1 in H2O. At 700V DC nominal, the fan will consume 28A at max power. To achieve the same power from a 24V fan would require nearly 850A, and even if technically feasible, the electrical load and physical size of an 850A fan would be prohibitive for almost any real-world application. In this case, high-voltage technology allows for electrification in extreme applications that are traditionally reserved for large belt-driven fans or hydraulic fans powered by internal combustion engines. It is worth mentioning that the high-voltage Fans are air-cooled, and therefore do not require any coolant supply and thereby make the need for hoses and additional pumps obsolete. Concentric continues to lead the way for innovation in electric components and subsystems by working directly with leading global OEMs to optimize technology for the heavy-duty commercial EV sector. Recent innovations include CAN control and CAN-based monitoring of the high-voltage interlock loop (HVIL), fully sealed touchless high-voltage electrical connections, and advanced embedded motor controls offering full variable speed and reversibility. Concentric’s new HVMPU (High Voltage Motor Pump Unit) offers entry into the world of high-voltage hydraulic units. The voltage range of 450-850V offers the possibility of operating the unit directly on the high-voltage board network of a vehicle. With a nominal motor output power of 7.5 kW with full variability CAN-controlled speed range of 0-4000 RPM, the unit offers sufficient output power for a large number of hydraulic applications. Together with the proven low-noise gear pumps of Concentric’s CALMA series, and the new internal gear pumps of their IGP series, the unit has been optimized for low-noise applications.

The world is moving fast towards a net zero future, and with this comes a growing demand for zero-emission vehicles - using both battery electric and fuel cell technology. Concentric AB recently outlined an ambitious electric business target, aiming to derive 30 percent of its sales from electric products by 2028. Martin Kunz, Concentric President & CEO, believes that the organisation’s acquisition of Engineered Machined Products, Inc. (EMP), a leading US producer of electric and mechanical water and oil pumps, electric fans, thermal management systems, and precision machined components, in late 2021, has been a key strategic move in accelerating the growth of electrification. Concentric AB continues to innovate and respond to the evolving needs of our customers. As a result, we are well positioned to continue making inroads in supplying our markets with electrified and mechanical products. Known for the robustness and reliability of our products, as well as the ability to deliver tailored solutions to meet our customers' specific requirements, we have established a strong presence in our end markets, such as buses and trucks, as well as within the construction and agriculture sectors, and will continue to support our customers with our proven, efficient products and with our global manufacturing, engineering, and sales footprint.

There’s no question that the world is moving towards a net zero future, and with this comes a growing demand for zero-emission vehicles - using both battery electric and fuel cell technology. According to research conducted by Interact Analysis, we should see an increase in the number of battery electric trucks and buses, to more than nine million, out of a total market of 21 million, by 2030; and Concentric AB is ready to support our OEM customers on the electrification journey! #electrification #energyefficiency #sustainability #fcev #ev #bev #hydraulics #coolingsolutions #thermalmanagement #pumps #fans #OneConcentric https://lnkd.in/dKqgwvpa

Concentric AB’s EMP brand in Escanaba, USA continues its tradition of supporting local youth talent development, through mentorship and monetary sponsorship of the robotics teams at the Escanaba-, Gladstone-, and Bark River Schools. The robotics teams range from Junior High School (FIRST Tech Challenge) and High School (FIRST Robotics Challenge). Along with monetary support, EMP also provides professional mentors who volunteer to coach the local teams, from Head Coach to Programming mentors. The EMP mentors volunteer their time to help support the teams and various community initiatives. The mentors participate in “Adopt a Highway”, “Robot for Kids”, “Music Monday in the Park”, along with many other local community activities. Recently, the teams got together to host an outreach display at the local U.P. State Fair. “Robot Fair Play”, provides an opportunity to introduce our local community to robotics and give an interactive look into our local robotics programs. The 2023-2024 robotics season saw two of the Junior High teams compete at the Michigan State level competition, and two of the High School teams compete at the State-level, while one team traveled to the World Competition in Houston, Texas. “The BraveBots” from Gladstone, not only qualified for the Worlds competition, but made it to the finals on their field. The message of FIRST Robotics is Competition with Cooperation or “Cooperatition”, and presents with it a sense of complete inclusion and sharing of ideas, which is hard to find in any traditional competition-style program aimed at young adults. “EMP has seen the benefit of supporting this local cause where alumni had returned from Secondary education to become full-time employees at the company. The continued support of our Youth through robotics sponsorships will continue to be a legacy that builds our future”, says Chad Leiter, plant director at EMP Escanaba. #youthskills #youthskillsdevelopment #peoplefirst #mentorship #OneConcentric

The world is facing an uncertain future due to climate change, natural resource availability, and societal changes being just a few of the disruptive forces that will likely impact how we conduct business, as we advance into the future. At Concentric we acknowledge the growing importance of sustainability globally and how it can create value for all the stakeholders across our entire value chain.   In Celebration of World Environment Day, Concentric AB has implemented various sustainability measures across our global group, to contribute to a greener future. One such activity occurs at our EMP Advanced Products facility in Escanaba, Michigan, where the local team is transforming 1,600 square feet of turf grass, into a native prairie grassland. This project aims to reduce water usage, enhance stormwater management, and increase carbon sequestration.   “By planting native species like little bluestem and prairie blazing star, we anticipate saving over 14,000 gallons of water annually and further reducing CO2 emissions from mowing requirements. This initiative reflects our commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship, contributing to a healthier local ecosystem", says Boris F Gavric – Concentric AB Senior Vice-President Engines EU & Asia and Advanced Products.   #WorldEnvironmentDay #Sustainability #CO2neutral #OneConcentric
