1U full-rack AC/DC programmable-power-supply series adds 2.7-kW platform
NEPTUNE, NJ. TDK Corp. has announced the introduction of the TDK-Lambda 1U full-rack GENESYS 2.7-kW AC/DC programmable-power-supply series. Adding to the already released 1.7-kW, 5-kW, 10-kW, and 15-kW platforms, the 2.7-kW platform provides the user with a choice of ten different models, ranging from 10 V, 265 A to 600 V, 4.5 A, that have performance and functionality suited for design, test, and measurement within the laboratory/R&D environment and address broad market segments including automotive, aerospace, semiconductor, industrial, and renewable/alternative energy.
All models have three AC Input options, which include a single-phase 230-VAC input (with 0.99 PF), a 3-phase 208-VAC input (with 0.94 PF), or a wide-range 400-VAC/480-VAC input (with 0.94 PF). Conversion efficiencies reach 90.5% with cooling fan speed control (for reduced audible noise and extended life).
Standard safety features include user-selectable safe-start/auto re-start and last setting memory along with other built-in protective functions including output over-voltage protection (OVP), output under-voltage limit (UVL), output under-voltage protection (UVP), fold-back protection (FOLD) for CV or CC mode, output over-current limit (OCL), and over-temperature protection (OTP).
A new parallel master/slave system allows for up to four units to be connected in parallel with Auto-Configuring technology and provides dynamic response and output voltage ripple/noise characteristics comparable to that of a single unit.
All model functions can be programmed locally via the menu-driven front panel display or remotely using software instrument drivers with any one of the three built-in standard digital interfaces LXI 1.5, USB 2.0, and RS-232/RS-485). Other programming interfaces include the built-in standard isolated analog program/monitor/control interface, and the optional IEEE 488.2 and ModBUS-TCP digital interfaces.
