Description
Series SYSKON (SYSTEM KONSTANTERs) are manual and remote
controllable DC power supplies for laboratory and system use.
Owing to the highest quality in switching controller technology,
the devices are compact and lightweight despite their high output
power.
Active power factor control assures nearly sinusoidal mains input
current.
The floating output features “safety separation” from the mains
input as well as from the computer interfaces, and is classified as
a safety extra-low voltage circuit (SELV) in accordance with VDE /
IEC. Wide ranging nominal output power values are available from
output voltage and output current.
The power output is voltage and current controlled with limiting to
maximum withdrawable power.
Transition to the control modes is automatic in accordance with
the selected setpoints and load circumstances.
The control loops are designed for short response times.
An automatically activated, dynamic sink (can be disabled)
provides for quick discharging of the output capacitors.
Numerous protective functions and monitoring devices allow for
ideal adaptation to actual conditions of use.
Features
The devices are generally equipped with a control panel and
display, as well as an analog interface.
One USB port and one RS 232 interface are provided as standard
equipment for integration into computer controlled systems. The
drivers for the USB port are provided as accessories on the
included CD ROM.
An optional IEEE 488 interface can be additionally installed, or ret-
rofitted as an option, to connect and control programmable
devices and to provide a standard interface for external communi-
cation with the device.
Manual adjustment of voltage and current is accomplished by
means of two rotary encoders with selectable resolution, or with
the numeric keypad. Numerous additional functions can be
accessed via keys.
Two digital LED displays (5 digit each) read out measured values
and settings. LEDs indicate the current operating mode, selected
display parameters and the status of device and interface func-
tions.
The analog interface makes it possible to adjust output voltage
and current with the help of external control voltages. Monitor
outputs read out an analog image of the voltage and current
output quantities for further processing or additional displays.
These control inputs and monitor outputs can also be used to
couple several devices for master-slave operation with parallel or
series connection.
Two floating trigger inputs are available for controlling certain
device functions. For example, they can be used to switch the
output on and off, or to control sequences.
Furthermore, three signal outputs are included at the analog inter-
face, two of which are floating. These can be activated depending
upon various functions, and can thus be used to control external
devices or sequences.
