Power Supply

Power Supply

Model 8525

Main Supply

Used to supply power, both DC and AC, to all of the laboratory experiments.

The four main supplies are turned ON and OFF by a single power switch.

L1, L2 and L3 are lit to signify power in each phase.

Supplies are available on the colored 4mm safety banana receptacles labeled 1-8, N and -N.

A analog voltmeter connected through a selector switch monitors the supply outputs.

• Fixed 120V/208V - 15A Three-phase Supply

• Fixed 120V - 25 A DC Supply

• Variable 0-120V/208V - 15A Three-phase Supply*

• Variable 0-120V -8 A DC Supply*

    *the variable supplies are both controlled by the same main variac.

Accessories Supply

Used to power accessories, mainly the Data Acquisition and Control Interface.

Controlled by the accessories switch

The output is available on the barrel connector.

• Fixed24V - 3A Single phase AC

The Power Supply module is the primary component of the system. All associated equipment is powered by this power supply.  A flexible, 5-wire power cord, terminated with a 5-prong, twist-lock plug and line cap, feeds the module. A mechanical interlock on the line cap prevents the removal of an energized Power Supply from its locked position in the workstation. The Power Supply requires a 3-phase, wye-connected, 5-wire service installation. An appropriate wall outlet is shipped with each Power Supply so that site power can be properly

terminated to receive the power cord. In addition to the 3-phase legs and the neutral, a separate copper ground provides proper grounding for the Power Supply chassis and workstation cabinets, thus ensuring added safety for students using the equipment.

The Power Supply provides fixed and variable AC and DC voltage sources all terminated with 4-mm safety jacks. They can be used simultaneously, up to a total load current equal to the rating of the fixed 3-phase output. Independent circuit breakers, reset at the front panel, protect the Power Supply input and outputs. Indicator lamps monitor the presence of input voltage in each phase. When a phase leg of the site power service is out, the lamp goes off to reflect this condition. A voltmeter, connected through a selector switch, monitors the outputs.
