SSP-KONSTANTER, Series 62 N and Series 64 N
Computer Controlled Laboratory Power Supplies
Series 62N
Series 64N
Description
SSP KONSTANTER (single-output system power supplies) DC
power supplies can be manually or remote controlled for
laboratory or systems applications. Despite high output power,
the devices are small in size and lightweight as well.
The floating output is provided with protective isolation from the
mains power supply, as well as all optional computer interfaces,
and has been classified as a safety extra-low voltage circuit
(SELV) in accordance with VDE / IEC. Nominal power supplied by
the voltage and current controlled output can be delivered over
widely adjustable voltage and current ranges.
These devices are generally equipped with operating elements
and displays, as well as an analog interface. An optional IEEE488/
RS232C or an RS232C interface can be inserted into the device
in order to link it to computer controlled systems.
Manual adjustment of voltage and current is accomplished by
means of two rotary knobs with adjustable resolution. A wide
variety of additional functions can be selected with the keys. Two
4-place digital LED displays provide information concerning
measurement and set values. Current operating modes, selected
display parameters and the status of device and interface func-
tions are indicated with LEDs.
The analog interface allows for the adjustment of output voltage
and current with external control voltages, and for the linking of
several devices in the master-slave operating mode. The power
output can be activated and deactivated, the front panel can be
locked, and stored configurations can be recalled via the floating
optocoupler input.
Range of Applications
Electrical and electronic devices may be subjected to substantial
supply power fluctuations depending upon where they are used
and prevailing ambient conditions.
The automotive electrical system characteristics which can be
observed when the starter motor is cranked is a typical example.
R&D, production and testing departments must therefore assure
that electrical equipment reliably fulfills all of the required functions
at any point in time under adverse conditions.
Series 62 N and 64 N SSP KONSTANTERs provide the user with
a number of functions for solutions to these problems.
High throughput rates can be achieved with automatic systems
for routine testing in combination with the SSP KONSTANTER.
Short response time assures highly accurate simulation of rapidly
changing voltage or current profiles.
The performance of consuming devices as related to dynamic
supply power can thus be easily tested and simulated.
