As the electronic contribution to automotive products has rapidly increased, so has the need for more extensive and higher power testing of all components. To meet market demands and trends, AMREL has released a family of high-power, dc power supplies. The newest members of the ePower family are the 1.5kW SPS-K Series and SPS-V Series. These feature PFC, very high-power density and zero-stackability. These models output 1.5kW in a 1U package.

The SPS supplies are available in two flavors -- full-featured SPS-K Models and basic analog SPS-V 1.5kW Models.

AMREL's SPS-K 1.5kW models offer all the bells and whistles, while keeping their price tags economical and affordable. Features and benefits include standard Ethernet/USB/RS-232/GPIB interfaces, vented panel and closed-case calibration for increased reliability and ROI, industry's exclusive keypad and encoder for simple navigation, VLIST and ILIST auto-sequencing for automated testing without a PC, built-in master controller for system expansion with ease, integrated 4-digit DMM for 16-bit voltage and current measurements on a 162 VXFD display, and standard LabVIEW, LabWindows and SCPI commands ideal for ATE environments. Options include mechanical or fast-response solid state polarity reversal and output isolation relays, and RS-485 multi-channel system expansion using a single PC remote connection.

Why pay for the bells and whistles if you don't need them? AMREL's SPS-V 1.5kW models offer the industry's best power-to-cost ratio, wide-ac voltage PFC input, analog or local programming, front panel on/off control and the needed essentials without the heavy price tag. The SPS-V 1.5kW models are designed specifically for applications utilizing a 0 ~ 10Vdc or 0 ~ 5Vdc control voltage and isolated analog programming is available to meet diverse test requirements. AMREL's SPS-V 1.5kW also can double as a bench top power supply.

AMREL's SPS-V and SPS-K series 1.5kW ePower switchers offer the industry's only 800Vdc models. Stop by Booth # 12024C to see a demo today.
