+ Voltage/Current Levels:
Voltage Range: Range 1 - 0V to 60V; Range 2 - 0V to 80V
Current Range: 0A to 50A.
Power Range: Up to 600W - see PowerFlex+ power envelope graph.
Operating Mode: Constant voltage or constant current with automatic cross-over
and mode indication.
+ Output Setting:
Voltage Setting: By floating point numeric entry or rotary jog wheel; resolution 1mV for 60V range or 2mV for 80V range.
Current Setting: By floating point numeric entry or rotary jog wheel; resolution 10mA.
Setting Accuracy: Voltage - 0.1% ± 2mV; 0.1% ± 4mV on 80V range; Current - 0.3% ± 20mA
Setting Stores: Up to 10 set-ups can be saved and recalled via the keyboard.
+ Keyboard & Rotary Control:
All functions, including the selection and set-up of the remote control interfaces, can be set from the keyboard.
The rotary Jog control can be used to adjust output voltage and current settings in a quasi-analogue mode.
The output to be controlled is first selected with the appropriate Control key.
+ Output Performance:
Load regulation: <0.01% +5mV (CV mode) for any load change within the PowerFlex envelope, using remote sense.
Line regulation: <0.01% +5mV for a 10% line voltage change.
Ripple & Noise: Typically <3mV rms, <20mV pk-pk, (20MHz bandwidth).
Transient Response: <2ms to within 100mV of set level for 5% to 95% load change.
Temp. Coefficient: Typically <100ppm/oC.
Sensing: Selectable local or remote sensing.
+ Output Protection:
External Voltage: Output will withstand forward voltages of up to 90V. Reverse protection by diode clamp.
Power Limit: Automatic protection within PowerFlex+ control system.
Fault Trip: The output will be shut down if any of the four trip conditions listed below occur.
Over Voltage (OVP): Settable 2V to 85V in 0.1V steps
Over Current (OCP): Settable 2A to 55A in 0.1A steps
Over Temperature: Monitors internal temperature rise to protect against excess ambient temperature or blocked ventilation slots.
Sense Error: Monitors the voltage between the remote sense terminals and output terminals to protect against mis-wiring.
+ Output Switching:
Push switch operating electronic power control. LED indication of On state
+ Connection:
Output Terminals: Rear mounted safety terminals accepting 6mm wire diameter, 6mm plugs or 8mm spades at 50 Amps max, or 4mm plugs at 30 Amps max.
Sensing Terminals: Screw-less terminals on rear panel.
- LINK MODES:
In addition to independent output operation, the instrument is capable of operating in a number of different voltage and current tracking modes which can be activated from the Link Menu.
These modes include Output 2 voltage (V2) tracking Output 1 voltage (V1) by any ratio in the range 5% to 2000%,
V2 and I2 set to track V1and I1 (1:1) with total V1 + V2 displayed (useful when
Output 1 and Output 2 are series connected), V2 and I2 set to track V1and I1 (1:1) with total I1 + I2 displayed (useful when Output 1 and Output 2 are parallel connected).
- METERING (each Output):
Display Type: Large dot-matrix black-on-white backlit LCD.
Meter Function: 5 digit voltage meter and 4 digit current meter. Display of limits values, memory contents etc. Wide range of alpha-numeric messages/menus.
Limits Display: Limits settings can be displayed simultaneously with measurements.
Meter Resolution: Voltage: 1mV (2mV on 80V range). Current: 10mA
Meter Accuracy: Voltage: 0.1% of reading ± 2 digits (CI mode and Unreg)
Current: 0.3% of reading ± 2 digits (CV mode and Unreg)
+ Additional Metering Functions:
V x A Display shows calculated power in watts. Resolution 0.1W. Accuracy 0·5% ± 0·1W
V/A Display shows calculated resistance. Resolution up to 5 digits. Measurement uncertainty is shown on display.
- ANALOG & LOGIC INTERFACES (each Output):
+ Analog Remote Control and Monitoring:
Non-isolated inputs and outputs to set voltage and current limit and to monitor actual output voltage and current.
These signals are referenced to the negative output and have a range of 0 to 10V or 0 to 5V (selectable via the keyboard).
Note that the analog control voltage is digitised within the power supply.
Control Accuracy: Voltage: 0.3% ± 4mV; Current: 0.5% ± 40mA
Monitor Accuracy: Voltage: 0.3% ± 4mV; Current: 0.5% ± 40mA
+ Logic Control Input and Output:
LOGIC IN is a rear-panel opto-isolated input that is activated at an input current greater than approximately 1mA.
User can set LOGIC IN (via the keyboard) to enable the output, disable the output, or be ignored when it is activated.
LOGIC OUT is an isolated rear-panel open-collector output that will sink up to 2mA when activated (‘switch closure’);
the maximum voltage that can be applied to LOGIC OUT is 30VDC.
User can set LOGIC OUT to be ‘closed’ or ‘open’ for output enabled or disabled, current limit (CI mode), power limit (UNREG mode), or for any fault trip
