DC Bench Power
XPF Series
-
AMETEK Programmable Power, Inc.
The Sorensen XPF is a new type of bench power supply designed to meet the need for flexibility in the choice of voltage and current. Typically, the maximum voltage and maximum current are not required simultaneously. The PowerFlexTM design enables higher currents to be generated at lower voltages within an overall power limit envelope. This is achieved by using the latest switch-mode technology.

DCS Series
-
AMETEK Programmable Power, Inc.
The DCS Series of 1 kW, 1.2 kW and 3 kW programmable power supplies provides a highly reliable power platform. It utilizes unique packaging techniques to achieve continuous full output power (1 kW, 1.2 kW or 3 kW) in any volt/amp combination within the rated output voltage and current limits in a low profile chassis. This DCS power supply family has an easy-to-use front panel with 10-turn potentiometers to adjust voltage and current settings that are displayed simultaneously. LEDs indicate overtemperature, remote programming, shutdown and over voltage protection, status and constant-voltage/current mode operation. The DCS 3 kW Models have push button control of the output standby mode, OVP reset, remote/local programming and preview status of voltage, current and OVP setpoints.

SFA Series
-
AMETEK Programmable Power, Inc.
The SFA family builds on the industry leading Sorensen SGA series to provide a high power current source for laser diode applications. State of the art high power laser diodes require well-regulated current control to avoid catastrophic damage. Under anomalous operating conditions, excessive stored energy in the output circuit of the power supply can result in peak stresses that can permanently damage the device. Providing a constant current regulation mode only, the SFA’s low stored energy output minimizes damage potential for sensitive devices as well as enabling a current slew rate of up to 400 A/msec.

XDL Series
-
AMETEK Programmable Power, Inc.
The Sorensen XDL series II represents the "next generation" of high performance laboratory power supplies. The XDL provides multiple ranges for increased current capability at lower voltages and uses pure linear technology. Unlike other digitally controlled units, the XDL series II provides both numeric and rotary control while the illuminated keys and display legends provide instant confirmation of settings and status.

Solar Array Simulator
SAS
-
AMETEK Programmable Power, Inc.
A spacecraft solar array is subjected to large temperature excursions, varying insolation (the amount of sunlight falling on the array), mechanical changes and aging, which substantially effect both its short and long term performance. In order to test the spacecraft's power environment, a cost-effective solution for ground based testing is to utilize a solar array simulator.
