About the device
1. Introduction
The high efciency power supplies of the series PS 8000 3U
are ideally suited for test systems and industrial control facilities
by their 19“ draw-out case.
Apart from standard functions of power supplies the user can
dene and recall 5 different presets of set values.
The optionally available, digital interface cards provide an even
wider spectrum of control and monitoring functions by means
of a PC. The supported number and kind of features varies
from card to card.
All models also offer integrated terminals for parallel connection
as share bus operation by default.
The integration into existent systems is done very comfortably
by using an interface card, while there is no need to congure
the card at all or with only a few settings.
Via the analogue interface, a power supply can also be operated
in connection to other power supply units, controlling these via
the interface. Or they can be controlled and monitored by an
external control system, like a PLC.
The devices are microprocessor-controlled and thus deliver
fast and accurate measurement and indication of actual values.
The main functions at a glance:
• Set voltage, current and power, each with 0...100%
• Adjustable overvoltage threshold 0...110% UNom
• Optional, pluggable digital interface cards (CAN, USB, RS232,
IEEE/GPIB, Ethernet/LAN, Probus)
• Internal, analogue interface for external control and monitoring
with 0...5V or 0...10V (selectable) for 0...100%
• Power ratings of 3.3kW, 5kW, 6.6kW, 10kW or 15kW;
expandable in cabinets with up to 150kW
• Temperature controlled fans
• Status indication (OT, OVP, CC, CV, CP)
• 5 selectable memory sets
• Parallel connection (Share bus)
• Vector™ compatible CAN system
