B&K 9810 Series - 9812 Programmable AC Power Source

The 9810 Series Programmable AC Power Sources deliver 500 VA or 1000 VA through the universal line output terminals on the front and the output connector on the rear. The output can be varied from 0 to 300 V with 0.1 V resolution, and the frequency can be adjusted from 45 Hz to 500 Hz.

This series offers advanced list mode programming for up to 50 programs with 9 steps per program. Configure each step to run individually or connect steps and programs to run sequentially. Additionally, the surge/dropout function allows users to create complex test scenerios and simulate common power grid faults and disturbances.

List program mode

The 9810 Series allows you to create complex AC waveforms by sequencing up to 50 programs, each comprised of 9 individually configured steps. Each of these steps can be customized with specific voltage, frequency, and timing parameters, including ramp up, dwell, and ramp down times. The series also incorporates features to protect your device under test, such as the overcurrent fold feature which automatically reduces the voltage to keep the current below a safe threshold. For applications that require a settling time between steps, the single-step mode allows you to manually trigger each step in the sequence.

Dimmer simulation

The dimmer feature can be used for many test applications such as motor control and lighting. By controlling the phase cut-off of the AC sine wave’s leading or trailing edge, the dimmer simulation varies the RMS voltage supplied to the load under test. The phase cut-off can be adjusted for leading or trailing edge dimming between 0 to 180 degrees.
