Connect multiple units in
parallel and series
Should you need greater output
power, the N8700 series power
supplies give you the flexibility
to connect in parallel up to four
identical units (same model num-
ber) for greater output current or
connect two identical units (same
model number) in series for greater
output voltage (see output terminal
isolation information).
Fan speed control
Lab bench use is enhanced by the
fan speed control, which helps to
minimize the acoustic noise.

Notes:
1
Minimum voltage is guaranteed to maximum
0.2% of rated output voltage.
2
Minimum current is guaranteed to maximum
0.4% of rated output current.
3
From no-load to full-load, constant input voltage.
Maximum drop in remote sense.
4
For load voltage change equal to the unit voltage
rating, constant input voltage
5
Single-phase and 3-Phase 208 V models:
170~265 VAC, constant load. 3-Phase 400 V
models: 342~460 VAC, constant load.
6
The constant current programming readback
and monitoring accuracy does not include the
warm-up and load regulation thermal drift.
7
Time for output voltage to recover within 0.5%
of its rated output for a load change 10 - 90%
of rated output current, local sense.
8
From 10% to 90% or 90% to 10% of rated output
voltage, with rated, resistive load.
9
From 90% to 10% of rated output voltage.
10
For 8 V - 15 V models the ripple is measured from
2 V to rated output voltage and rated output current.
For other models, the ripple is measured at 10 - 100%
of rated output voltage and rated output current.
