- KIKUSUI 1U Wide Range Programmable DC Power Supply (CV/CC) PWX Series - 1500W Model
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.
Furthermore, this series is equipped with essential communication interfaces for system upgrades, including LAN, USB, and RS232C as standard. By utilizing the VMCB (Virtual Multichannel Bus) function*, efficient remote control and monitoring of 1-to-N, N-to-M, and large-scale network types can be achieved. LAN communication allows control and monitoring from web browsers on PCs, smartphones, and tablets. Additionally, it is certified for LXI (LAN eXtensions for Instrumentation), making it easy to configure when connecting to measurement systems via LAN. Remote management of power supplies located in separate buildings can also be easily realized.
In terms of output specifications, there are two types with output powers of 750W and 1500W, respectively; these are “3x ratio” power-type units capable of operating across a wide range of voltage and current combinations.For example, the PWX1500ML model, with a rating of 1,500 W, is capable of seamless operation from 80 V–18.75 A to 26.8 V–56 A. It also features a universal input voltage range of 85 V to 265 V and includes a built-in PFC (power factor correction) circuit to suppress harmonic current. Additionally, it is equipped with analog external control and voltage monitor outputs, master-slave parallel operation, various protection functions, and memory functions. *Supported starting with Half-Rack Model Ver. 2.0
