800 W programmable power supplies

12 June 2013 Power Electronics / Power Management

TDK-Lambda has extended its Z+ series of programmable DC power supplies with the addition of the higher-power Z+800 range. Carrying a 5-year warranty, these 800 W programmable power supplies offer the same features as the lower-power Z+400 and Z+200 ranges and address the need for high-quality benchtop power supplies for the R&D environment.

The Z+800 range has the same package size as the Z+200 and Z+400 and is also suited for ATE and OEM 2U rack-mounted or integrated applications such as test and measurement, semiconductor burn-in, component test, laser diode, heater supplies, RF amplifiers and electromagnets.

Models in the 800W Z+ Series are available with output voltages up to 100 V d.c. and output currents up to 72 A. The Z+800 units can operate in either constant-current or constant-voltage modes and accept the universal 85-265 V a.c. input.

Higher-power systems can be achieved by connecting up to six identical units in parallel with active current sharing. To increase the output voltage or to provide a bipolar output, up to two units may be connected in series.

All models can be programmed via the front panel or remotely using USB, RS-232/485 and analog interfaces which are built in as standard. Optional LAN, GPIB (IEEE488) and isolated analog programming interfaces are available.

CE marked in accordance with the Low Voltage Directive, the Z+800 conforms to EN55022-B, FCC part-15-B and VCCI-B for conducted and radiated EMI. Safety approvals include UL/EN/IEC61010-1, and the Z+800 is also designed to meet UL/EN60950-1.
