Voltage/Current/Power Levels |
Voltage Range |
0V to 60V. |
Current Range |
0A to 10A |
Note: Actual maxima for voltage and current are typically 1% greater than the figures given above. |
Power Range |
Up to 180W subject to power envelope. |
POWER ENVELOPE |
The maximum current at any voltage settings is limited by the power envelope which is set to give 3A at 60V rising to 10A at 16V under all ac supply conditions (both outputs loaded). At lower output voltages the power is restricted by the 10 amps current maximum. See PowerFlex power envelope graph on page four. |
Output Setting & Control |
Voltage Setting |
By coarse and fine controls. |
Current Setting |
By single logarithmic control. |
Output Mode |
Constant voltage or constant current with automatic cross-over.
CC indicator lit in constant current mode. |
Output Switch |
Electronic, non isolating. Preset voltage and current limit displayed when Output is off. Output rise time no load <10ms. |
View Settings |
With the output On, the meters show actual voltage and current. The preset levels can be viewed and adjusted at any time by pressing the View Settings button. |
Status Indication |
LED indication of Output On, V/I Limits, CV, CI, Power Limit, Remote, LAN status. Message on meter display for trip condition. |
S-Lock |

Display Type |

VOLTAGE TRACKING |
Independent Mode |
In the normal mode of operation, each output is fully independent and isolated. Operation is equivalent to two single output power supplies. |
Voltage Tracking Mode |
The two outputs remain isolated, but the Slave voltage controls are disabled and the Slave voltage is set equal to the Master voltage. This can be used to generate tracking bipolar volt- ages, or tracking unipolar voltages relative to different grounds.
When voltages greater than 60V are required, the outputs can be wired in series to generate 0 to 120V with the voltage controlled from the Master.
When currents greater than 10A are required, the outputs can be wired in parallel to create the equivalent of a 20A power supply with the voltage controlled from the Master.
|
Track Accuracy |
Slave voltage = ± (0·1% of Master voltage setting + 10mV) |
BOTH ON / BOTH OFF |
Each output has an independent DC On/Off control, however, an additional control button is provided which turn both outputs on or off simultaneously. |
DIGITAL BUS INTERFACES (CPX200DP only) |
The CPX200DP offers full remote control and read-back using RS-232, USB, GPIB or LAN (compliant with LXI class C). All interfaces are at ground potential and opto-isolated from the output terminals. Note: Remote/Local Sense, is manually selectable only. |
