BK Precision 9201 - Multi-Range Programmable DC Power Supply

The BK Precision 9201 can replace several supplies on your bench or in your rack. Unlike conventional supplies with fixed output ratings, this multi-range power supply automatically recalculates voltage and current limits for each setting, providing full output power in any Volt/Amp combination within the rated voltage and current limits.

For benchtop applications, this power supply provides a numerical keypad for direct data entry along with convenient cursors and analog-style knobs to quickly make incremental voltage or current changes. System integrators benefit from the standard USB (USBTMC-compliant), RS-232, and GPIB interfaces supporting SCPI commands.

PC connectivity
These power supplies offer SCPI IEEE488.2 compatible standard USB (USBTMC-compliant), RS232, and GPIB interfaces to facilitate test system development and integration.
 

Flexibility & Performance

Multi-Range Operation
Traditional power supplies with rectangular output characteristics are only able to deliver maximum output power at one voltage/current point. The multi-ranging 9200 Series provides greater flexibility over traditional power supplies by extending operating areas. For example, the 9206 can operate at 150 V/4 A, 60 V/10 A, or any other point on the maximum power curve. These wide ranges of voltage and current allow users to replace multiple traditional power supplies on a bench or system rack.
