This 1500 W lab power supply sets new standards. They are currently the most powerful 1 HU lab power supplies on the market. Another advantage is that you can stack one device on top of another which means that it needs no air slit either above or below and can actually get by on 1 HU. Output voltages of up to 300 V and output currents of up to 5 A can be adjusted directly on the device or remotely via the built-in RS232/RS485 interface. All important functions can also be programmed via analogue inputs (control voltage 0 5V, 0-10V, control current 4-20 mA or via external resistor; relevant drivers are available for the digital control e.g., via LabView and LabWindows). High-resolution 16-bit A/D and D/A converters enable very precise settings and programming; the dial controls on the device can be switched between coarse and fine adjustment. A dual digital display shows the current values as well as various state information (amongst othersa.over Voltage Protection, Under Voltage Limit, over load mode, address adjustment ) , and a monitor output provides corresponding analogue voltages (0 - 5 V or 0 - 10 V) for external monitoring The device can naturally be operated as a constant voltage as well as a constant current source and can, if necessary, automatically switch between these operating modes. Several devices can be switched serially or in parallel. This GEN model is suitable for mounting in 19'' racks.
