AMETEK - Engineered Systems
When a catalog product cannot completely satisfy a requirement, AMETEK Programmable Power's Solutions Business provides custom power supply systems and integrations. The solutions range from OEM integration for medical and semiconductor industries to modular avionics ATE power subsystems to turnkey solar array simulators for satellites. We also can modify power supplies to meet your application requirements.
AMETEK Programmable Power Solutions is especially skilled at providing custom power supply solutions using existing technology and previously developed integration solutions. This approach provides maximum functionality, short lead times and maximum value. Here is a brief listing of some of the types of solutions we can provide:
Catalog product modifications include:
- OEM power supplies for heating or burn-in
- AC stimulus for current transformer and circuit breaker testing
- Solar Array Simulation for satellites
- PV emulation for inverter verification
- Power racks for high energy solid state lasers
- DC power source and regenerative load for avionics actuator and motor testing
- Save your time, money and resources and let AMETEK Programmable Power Solutions solve your custom power conversion challenges for you.

More Product Information

- The LL137 Series provides a focused line of illumination in a passively cooled design.
- Provides a medium intensity level of 280kLux (working distance of 75mm)
- Pre-engineered for expandability in 6” (152mm) increments up to 96” (2.44m).
- Available intensity control provides illuminance adjustability for every 6″ increment via a 0 – 10v input
Note: If only looking for white illumination, our LL167 Series provides a 74% brighter beam in a similar package.

4U and 5U expansion chassis with ample power to run lots of PCIe slots and host multiple option cards. Provide total bidirectional throughtput between a host system and a target expansion system, delivering expanded I/O capabilities needed to support evolving workloads.
- Up to 18 Additional PCIe 3.0 Slots - Incorporate up to 18 additional PCIe 3.0 slots, allowing you to scale your system in response to your most complex application or program needs.
- System Design Flexibility - Connect host card to any system with a x16 slot. Easily add or remove I/O devices or make changes to existing components.
- Performance Optimization - Offload tasks from the host system and dedicate specific tasks to separate option cards, reducing congestion, latency, and resource contention.

- Direct PC bus access data acquisition system provides the required sampling rate and resolution to meet IEC 61000-4-7 measurement requirements and supports high-speed data transfers.
- PC-based Harmonic and Flicker test software provides real-time full-color data display updates and continuous PASS/FAIL monitoring.
- Automatic calculation of the maximum permissible system impedance Zsys, using the Zref and measured Flicker parameters, as required per EN/IEC 61000-3-11.
- Intuitive operating software provides IEC test setup, data analysis, display, with test reports in and MS Word format.
- High resolution, no gap acquisition data storage to ensure that all data can be streamed to disk (in ASCII format if needed) for later review and replay of the actual test.
- Single Step and Fast playback mode of test results.
