KIKUSUI 1U Multi Range Programmable DC Power Supply - PWX Series -
[Contact Us]
The PWX Series is a next-gen, rack-mounted DC power supply, designed for optimal remote control and monitoring via networked systems. It features USB, RS232C, and LXI-compliant LAN interfaces for seamless browser-based access on multiple devices. With power outputs of 750 W and 1500 W, and a universal voltage range, it includes PFC circuits, multi-channel support, and safety functions, ensuring versatile, efficient network integration.
Features
Ideal for N-to-M network-based remote control and monitoring. A Next-Generation Rack-Mounted Power Supply
The PWX series is a CV/CC programmable regulated DC power supply optimally designed for rack-mounted operation. To increase its mounting efficiency, it has a 19-inch rack width with a thin shape and intakes and outtakes for cooling on only the front and back surfaces so that it can be mounted flush top and bottom.
The series is equipped standard with USB, RS232C, and LAN interfaces, which are essential for system upgrades.
The series also has a virtual multi-channel bus (VMCB) function* that allows it to be used efficiently for remote control and monitoring with 1-to-N and as well as with N-to-M in large-scale networks. In particular, the LAN interface is LXI compliant*, enabling you to control and monitor the power supply easily from a browser on a PC, smartphone, or tablet. Moreover, the PWX is an LXI (LAN eXtensions for Instrumentation) compliant instrument, so it can be connected easier with the measurement system using LAN interface.
You can also manage the power supply in a different building.
Two output power specifications are available: 750 W and 1500 W, and a wide range of voltage and current settings can be combined within its output power rating (3 times).
For example, the output power of 1500 W model, the PWX1500ML is capable to operate seamlessly from the range of “80 V-18.75 A” to “26.8 V-56 A”. The input voltage has a universal 85 V to 265 V input voltage range, and the unit also has an internal power factor correction (PFC) circuit to control the harmonic current.
It also includes an analog external control/monitoring output, master-slave parallel operation function, various protective functions, and memory function.
*Half-rack model is complied with Ver. 2.0 or later
Equipped with standard LAN interface and VMCB (Virtual Multi-Channel Bus) function to support network-based remote control and monitoring
The PWX series is equipped with LAN, USB, and RS232C interfacesas standard features. By using the feature of virtual multi-channelbus (VMCB)*1, it allows you to control remotely and monitoringfor 1-to-N as well as N-to-M for large-scale networks.
In particular,the LAN interface is LXI compliant, enabling you to easily controland monitor the power supply through a browser on a PC, smartphone,or tablet by accessing the web server built into the PWXseries.
Additionally, the optional application software, Wavy forPWX (SD013-PWX), sequence creation and control software,allows you to change settings for specific channels (in individual)on VMCB-connected PWX series power supplies, and lets youperform batch control using global commands*2. You can alsoturn the output ON and OFF on multiple units and adjust theoutput voltage and current.
*1: This function for the PWX750ML applies to the firmware version 2.0 and later.
*2: This is only enabled for “Direct control” on Wavy for PWX. Global commands that can be also used under control with VXI-11, HiSLIP, and SCPI-RAW.
Basic configuration with LAN interface and VMCB (example)
As shown in the figure below, it is possible to connect a PC and the PWX series with a hub to create a virtual group using a LAN connection. A maximum of 255 virtual groups can be set, and the maximum number of units can be configured up to 31 units per group. A group can have a mixture of models.
