A
different type of bench power supply
The XPF Series is a new type of bench power supply designed to meet the need
for flexibility in the choice of voltage and current. Today's engineers often
need a wide voltage range capability and a high current capability. Normally,
however, the maximum voltage and maximum current are not required simultaneously.
A conventional bench power supply has a fixed current limit giving a power
capability that reduces directly with the output voltage.
PowerFlex design
The PowerFlex design of the XPF Series enables higher currents to be generated
at lower voltages within an overall power limit envelope. Each output can provide
twice as much current as a conventional power supply of the same maximum voltage
and power (see the power curve for each model). This is achieved by using the
latest switch-mode technology. Advanced techniques are used to achieve noise
and RFI figures comparable with linear power supplies. As a result the XPF
Series can be used with confidence in sensitive environments.
Twin independent outputs
The XPF60-20S is a single-output power supply. The output operates in constant voltage or constant current
mode with automatic crossover and mode indication.
Precision adjustment and metering The XPF Series incorporates separate high
resolution voltage and current meters for each output using large bright LED
displays. Coarse and fine controls permit the output voltage to be set within
10mV. The current limit control is logarithmic to give good resolution at low
current settings. When each output switch is set to 'OFF', the meters display
the set levels. This enables voltage and current levels to be set accurately
before connection to the load. Switchable remote sense terminals are provided
to allow the effects of connection lead resistance to be eliminated.
The XPF60-20S incorporates S-Lock. One press of the Lock button transfers control of voltage and current from the analog controls to internal digital circuitry. This offers not just complete security, but exceptional stability as well with each setting controlled by an instrumentation quality DAC.
Output Range Control provides greater resolution of the front panel knob controls when operating in lower ranges.
The XPF60-20SP offers full remote control and read-back using RS-232, USB, GPIB, and LAN (compliant with LXI class C). All interfaces are at ground potential and opto-isolated from the output terminals. Note: Remote/Local Sense, is manually selectable only.
Safety and Protection
The XPF Series is designed and manufactured to meet the latest safety and EMC
standards. It incorporates full active power factor correction (PFC) which
substantially reduces the levels of harmonic current taken from the ac line
supply. Comprehensive protection includes an adjustable overvoltage trip
for each output.
