The GenesysTM family of programmable power supplies sets a
new standard for flexible, reliable, AC/DC power systems in OEM,
Industrial and Laboratory applications. Now
available in more power levels (750W, 1.5kW, 3.3kW, 5kW, 10kW and 15kW) and with
output voltages from 7.5 to 600V, and current up to 1,000A. Active PFC, and universal input head a long list of standard
features.
In addition to highest power density, for the first time a universal
input is available in this size and power. The wide range input is not
just dual range, but continuously variable from 85-265VAC, single phase,
50/60Hz. It also features Active Power Factor Correction of 0.99 at full
load, another first in this size and density. This assures operation in
difficult AC environments and meets European EMC requirements.
The user-friendly front panel provides reliable
control through encoders selectable for fine or course adjustment (6
or 30 turns) and four digit LED Voltage and Current meters.
Adjustable OVP, UVL and Current Foldback provide further
flexibility. Their set values may be previewed on the front panel
display. The Foldback may be set to latch output off if desired for
safety.
New Interface Options
The newest option in the GenesysTM family is an LXI Certified
LAN Interface. Features include Fast Start-up, Fixed and Dynamic
Addressing and LAN Fault Detectors. A LAN equipped Master can also
communicate with MD Option equipped Slaves. The interface is compatible
with most standard Networks.
GenesysTM 750/1500W includes
several other important new features and
options. Up to four like units may be connected in parallel and user
configured for the Master to Program and Monitor the total current of
the group. Thus, four units can appear as a single 3/6kW power supply,
increasing flexibility for system designers.
In the Digital Options, a new option
called Multi-Drop allows an IEEE Multi-Drop Master to control Multi-Drop
equipped Slaves over RS-485, avoiding the cost of a GPIB board in every
slave power supply. Up to 31 may be addressed over the RS-485 lines of
Master and Slaves.
Significant safety features include Safe
Re-Start and Last Setting
Memory. With Safe Re-Start, the user can select whether the GenesysTM
power supply returns to previous settings after power off, or returns to
zero (safe) output, waiting for user instructions. Last Setting Memory
retains settings of output voltage and current, remote or local mode,
OVP and UVL, Foldback, Baud Rate and Start Up Mode, without battery.
Front Panel controls also include Output On/Off and Local/Remote
selection. The Front Panel may be locked locally or by software command.
Like other GenesysTM
products, the 1U 750/1500W includes standard,
embedded 16 bit RS232/RS485 digital interface. Through this digital
interface up to 31 power supplies may be controlled in daisy chain over
the RS485 line. Analog remote programming is user selectable 0-5V or
0-10V via DIP switches on the rear panel.
The design of GenesysTM
power supplies is highly modular to offer short lead times. SMT
technology provides high reliability.
Digital and isolated analog interfaces are optional. The optional IEEE
digital interface is IEEE488.2 & SCPI compliant. Labview Drivers are
available. Isolated analog programming options include either 0-5V &
0-10V or 4-20ma control. |
