Kikusui PXB Programmable Power Supply for Battery Testing
Sept. 18, 2024
Kikusui PXB programmable DC power supplies are used in a wide range of test applications from energy storage device validation to power source performance testing.
The Kikusui regenerative PXB programmable DC power supplies are a high-power dense bidirectional programmable power supply that saves precious floor space, combining the functionality of a power supply and load in one piece of equipment for battery charging/discharging. With its regenerative capability, any potentially wasted energy can be redirected to nearby equipment to both recycle power and reduce the energy consumption typically required for ventilation.
Stricter guidelines imposed by version 3 of the IEC standard for harmonic current emissions push designers to embrace power-factor-correction methodologies.
