5kW power supplies are flexible and reliable

Fambda’s Genesys family of programmable ac-dc power supplies are flexible and reliable for OEM, industrial and laboratory applications. Now the company’s new 5kW module offers one of the highest power densities available in a compact 2U unit, complementing the already highly successful 1U 750W half-rack, 1U 750W/1.5kW, 2U 3.3kW and 3U 10kW/15kW full-rack models.

The Gen 5kW power supply is offered as a full range with 12 versions, including output voltage ranges of 0–8, 0–60, 0–150 and 0–600V. Maximum output current for the lowest voltage range is 600A. A choice of three phase ac inputs (either 208V or 400V) is available.

Features include a built-in RS232/RS485 interface, comprehensive remote programming functions with commands for multiple power supply systems. External analogue programming and monitoring is user-selectable from 0–5 V and 0–10V. Designers will benefit from the high-speed status monitoring feature for the RS485 bus.

Test system customers using the IEEE-488.2 bus may achieve significant cost savings by incorporating the optional IEEE multi-drop interface card for a master unit, which can relay commands to up to 30 slaves via the standard RS485 links.
