Sorensen - SGX Series 5kW-30kW High Power Modular DC Power Supplies
- High Power Density: Up to 15 kW in 3U, 30 kW in a 6U chassis
- Wide Voltage Range: 0-10V up to 0-1000V, from 4 to 30 kW
- Fast Load Transient Response: Protection from undesired voltage excursions
- Low Ripple and Noise
- Intuitive Touch Screen Display
- Parallelable up to 150 kW
- Sequencing: Free system controller & speed up test
- Low audible noise: Temperature controlled variable speed fans
The Sorensen SGX Series modular DC power supplies represent the next generation of high-power programmable DC power supplies.
The SGX Series DC power supply is designed for exceptional load transient response, low noise, and the highest power density in the industry.
With a full 15kW available down to 20 V output in a 3U package, the SGX leads the industry in power density. The power density is enhanced by a stylish front air intake allowing supplies to be stacked without any required clearance between units.
At the heart of the SGX series DC output power supply is a 5kW power module. Depending on the output voltage, one to six modules can be configured in a single chassis to deliver 5kW to 30kW of power.
Combinations of these chassis can then be easily paralleled to achieve power levels up to 150kW. Paralleled units operate like one single supply providing total system current.

Advanced Intelligent Control
The SGX Series modular power system is operated from the intuitive, easy-to-use front panel touchscreen display. Quickly access output programming parameters, measurements, sequencing, configuration, and system settings from the touchscreen interface. Functions and parameters can be directly selected from the touch screen or by using the encoder selector button.
The control resolution is adjusted by a dynamic rate change algorithm that combines the benefits of precise control over small parameter changes with quick sweeps through the entire range.
Additionally, the instrument can be controlled via LXI Ethernet and RS232 standard control interfaces, as well as through the optional GPIB control interface.

More Product Information
- The SL162 is characterized as a High Intensity Spot/Coaxial Light and is designed primarily to replace fiber optic light sources in coaxial lensing applications.
- Optional couplers are available for use with Dolan-Jenner, Fostec, and Moritex fiber bundles.
- The spot light is designed with sufficient thermal management to provide 33kLux at a working distance of 4” (100mm).
- A very wide range of wavelengths from UV to IR are available.
-
Designed for machine vision applications that require broad illumination over a wide area with controlled fall off.
-
This BALA (Broad Area Linear Array) bar light series is expandable in 1″ increments up to 82″.
-
Applications requiring an even wider area of illumination can utilize two BALA bar lights aligned in parallel, facing each other.
-
AL150 derivatives include AL4424 (4″), AL4554 (9″) and AL46120 (20″) (which represent legacy part numbers)
- This ultra high intensity line light series is built to handle the most extreme line scan lighting requirements.
- Provides an intensity level of 2,100 klx (working distance of 75 mm).
- Pre-engineered for expandability in 150 mm (6”) increments up to 2400 mm (94.5”).
- Available in multiple wavelengths.
- In the event of abnormally high ambient temperatures, the device automatically shuts down when the housing reaches 60°C and resumes operation at 56°C.
Note: Requires third party power supplies – refer to spec sheet.
- Broadest Model Selection: 6kW, 9kW, 12kW, 18kW, 24kW, 36kW, Additional standard models above 36kW, up to 250kW, are available.
- Standard 60V, 120V, 400V, 600V, 800V and 1000V Voltage Ratings
- PLW Models Offer Ultra-compact Footprint and Boasts one of the industry’s highest power densities, 18kW in 2U.
- Anti-condensation: Intelligent Fully-integrated Temperature Control Circuit and Solenoid Valve
- Standard LabWindows and LabVIEW Drivers and SCPI Command Set

- The BL128 Series provides a compact linear backlight solution ideal for space-constrained line scan applications.
- Its ultra-thin profile (less than ½”) minimizes vertical footprint, and bezel-free design along the length allows for placement of its emitting window right up to adjacent surfaces.
- While optimized for line scan setups, the BL128’s versatility extends to general-purpose machine vision lighting as a non-directional, highly diffuse bar light illuminator when needed.
