2U product line expanded to offer 10kW & 600Adc
The XR Series product line has been expanded by Magna-Power Electronics to 10,000W output power, with 17 models introduced spanning voltages up to 1000 Vdc and currents up to 600 Adc. The XR Series addresses requirements in a wide range of applications, including: automated test equipment (ATE), automotive and hybrid/electric development, semi-conductor burn-in, battery charging, among a wide variety of research and development activities.
The new 10 kW 2U models continues Magna-Power’s drive for rack-mount programmable DC power density as exemplified through the company’s immensely successful 1.5 kW to 4 kW 1U SL Series and 5 kW to 15 kW 3U TS Series. The new 600 Adc 2U models allow even high current applications to leverage the company's high power density products. All Magna-Power programmable DC power supplies feature the company’s current-fed power processing topology for greater tolerance to abusive loads.
XR Series models come standard with monitoring and control from a variety of sources, including: front panel, computer interface and an isolated DB37 analog-digital I/O connector. A Standard Commands for Programmable Instrumentation (SCPI) command set is supported, allowing easy ASCII text programming over a computer interface. In addition, an IVI driver is included for the Visual Studio programming environment along with a dedicated National Instruments LabVIEW™ and LabWindows™ driver. Additional computer interface options include LXI TCP/IP Ethernet (+LXI), IEEE-488 GPIB (+GPIB), USB and RS-485.
The XR Series now spans 70 models from 2 kW to 10 kW output power, 0-5 Vdc to 0-10,000 Vdc output voltage and 0-0.2 Adc to 0-600 Adc output current, making it among the most broadest 2U rack-mount programmable power supply line in the industry. Load-dependent variable speed fans are standard on all models. A High Slew Rate Output (+HS) is available for fast output transitions and higher programming bandwidth. Master-slave operation will be available with the UID47 device, enabling multiple units to be tied in series or parallel.
Production time for new units is 2 weeks for nearly all XR Series models,
