600-W high-voltage programmable power supplies debut

March 31, 2015

TDK Corp. has announced the introduction of 600-W high-voltage models to TDK-Lambda’s Z+ Series programmable DC power supplies. This extensive series is now available with output voltages of 0 to 10, 0 to 20, 0 to 36, 0 to 60, 0 to 160, 0 to 320, or 0 to 650 VDC and with output powers of 200, 400, 600, and 800 W. These higher voltages address the requirements for applications such as deposition processes, remotely operated underwater vehicles, and ATE systems as well as general laboratory and industrial use.

The TDK-Lambda Z+ 600-W high voltage models have the same features and compact dimensions (2U high and 2.76” wide) as the existing models and achieve efficiencies of up to 89%. The units can operate in either constant-current or constant-voltage modes and accept a universal 85- to 265-VAC input. Up to six units can be connected in parallel (master-slave configuration), or two identical units in series with external diodes.

All the Z+ series can be programmed via the front panel controls or remotely using the USB, RS232/485 or analog control interfaces. Optional LAN, GPIB (IEEE 488) and isolated analog programming interfaces are also available.

CE marked for the EMC, Low Voltage, and RoHS Directives, the Z+ series conforms to EN55022/EN55024 as well as IEC/EN61326-1 for conducted (FCC part-15-B) and radiated (FCC part-15-A) EMI. Safety certifications include UL/EN/IEC61010-1 and the series is designed to meet UL/EN60950-1. All models carry a five-year warranty.
