Product specifications

These linear-regulated DC power
supplies provide reliable and conve-
nient DC power on a lab bench. The
10-turn pots and clear voltage and
current meters allow fine adjust-
ments to be made easily. These
models are CV/CC, so they can
serve as either voltage or current
sources. The “CC Set” button allows
the current setting to be viewed,
allowing easy adjustment of a
current limit. Either the positive or
negative terminal may be connected
to ground, creating a positive or
negative voltage, or floated up to
240 V from ground.
E3610A, E3611A, E3612A
These flexible 30 watt DC power
supplies have 2 ranges, providing
more current at lower voltage levels.
E3614A, E3615A, E3616A, E3617A
These DC power supplies provide
remote sensing to eliminate the
errors in voltage regulation due
to voltage drops in the load leads.
Delicate loads are protected by
the overvoltage protection feature.
Remote voltage signals can be used
to control the power supply’s output
voltage and current levels.
