A circuit for delivering electrical energy to an AC mains connection is disclosed. The circuit includes a voltage source and a switch connected between the voltage source and the AC mains connection. The switch operates to transfer current from the voltage source to the AC mains. The circuit further includes a controller to control the switch. The controller operates to generate a simulated signal that represents a waveform of the AC mains without any distortion present on the waveform of the AC mains.

Regenerative braking system

A centrifuge includes a regenerative braking safety system including an electrical system reversibly coupled to a power source. A motor is coupled to the electrical system. The motor is capable of driving a rotor using power delivered through the electrical system, and is further capable of supplying the electrical system with recovered energy. The recovered energy is electrical energy converted from kinetic energy of the rotor during regenerative braking of the motor. The safety system includes a power cut-off configured to disable the effect of regenerative braking of the motor when the electrical system is decoupled from the power source.
