Programmable precision high-power DC supply

At the heart of the SG series is a 5 kW power module. Output voltage range can be specified from 0-40 V to 600 V, and one to six modules can be configured in a single chassis to deliver 5 kW to 30 kW of power. Combinations of these chassis can then be easily paralleled to achieve power levels up to 150 kW. Paralleled units operate like one single supply, providing total system current.

The SGI (standing for ‘Sorensen General purpose Intelligent’) features Sorensen’s advanced intelligent control system, which combines onboard intelligent controls with the high-performance power electronics common to all SG family supplies. These controls enable sophisticated sequencing, constant power mode and save/recall of instrument settings. Looping of sequences makes the SGI idea for repetitive testing.

A vacuum-fluorescent graphical display in eight languages, context sensitive ‘soft’ keys and front-panel keyboard simplify programming of the SGI. Remote programming can be specified via GPIB, RS232 or LAN/LXi. Hardware triggers available on the LXi option enable precise timing of events within a test system.
