The Sorensen XG Series is an 850 Watt, 1U half-rack DC power supply. The XG Series is the new standard for powerful, programmable DC power systems.
Designed for test, production, laboratory, OEM, and quality assurance applications, the XG Series 1/2 rack mount DC power supply provides a wealth of features to ensure accuracy and greater efficiency. It puts clean, reliable power at your disposal and delivers stable, variable output voltage and current for a broad range of development, test, and system requirements.
Features And Benefits
Highest Power Density
High frequency, soft switching technology in the XG Series provides up to 850 Watts in a 1U half-rack package. This represents the highest power density available from any manufacturer. With 12 models, there is a configuration available to meet every application.
Comprehensive Digital and Analog Interface Options
The XG Series DC output power supply comes standard with USB 2.0, RS-232, RS-485, and isolated and non-isolated analog interfaces to provide a comprehensive set of options to connect to a PC or other network device.
This design provides the convenience of being able to accommodate a wide range of installation configurations. Ethernet and GPIB interfaces are available as options.
Scalable, Multi-Unit Design
XG Series DC power supplies can be connected in parallel or series to produce greater current or voltage output for your applications. This scalability allows you to build rack-mounted systems with the XG Series DC power testing systems that exactly meet your existing requirements while allowing for future expansion.
Multi-Channel Support
Up to 30 XGs Series can be connected easily via an RS-485 bus to provide the ultimate flexibility in remote programming. This eliminates the cost and complexity of requiring GPIB cards in each unit. Once connected, multiple power supplies can be controlled via a single LAN, USB 2.0, GPIB, RS-232, or RS-485 interface. This provides an efficient option to centrally manage each XG Series rackmount programmable DC supply needed for your applications.
Straightforward Front Panel Controls
The XG Series variable DC power supply is equipped with a unique push-button encoder and function selector dial to provide a simple, uncluttered front panel. Both voltage and current can be set quickly and easily using these two controls. Front panel access can be locked out to ensure secure remote operation. This streamlined front panel layout results in a fast, intuitive set-up and operation of the XG Series.
High Reliability
To guarantee long-term trouble-free performance, the XG Series DC power supply was designed with reliability in mind. Soft switching technology ensures higher mean time between failure (MTBF) by eliminating high voltage transients found in conventional hard-switching power supplies which can cause premature failure of power components.
AMETEK engineers also rigorously tested the XG Series during the design phase using Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT). This rigorous test procedure combines powerful thermal and vibration technologies to stress a product beyond its rated specifications. HALT testing allows our engineers to uncover and correct design issues early in the development cycle. This care in design and comprehensive testing ensures the XG Series DC power supply exceeds the reliability and quality standards of both AMETEK and our customers.
Five-Year Warranty
The XG DC power supply is backed by a comprehensive five-year warranty, the longest in the market. Our superior design and testing techniques result in highly reliable products that will provide you with years of trouble-free performance.
