The 9240 Series sets a new standard for general-purpose benchtop power supplies by including many of the features and capabilities found in high-performance instruments. The multi-range operation provides up to 200 W of clean output power in any Volt/Amp combination within rated voltage and current limits.
This series combines an easy-to-use interface with advanced list programming features, battery charge mode, and data logging to serve a wide range of applications including production tests, R&D, electronic service, and education.

| Maximum Output Power | 120 W | 120 W | 200 W |
Intuitive list mode programming makes it easy to set up and execute complex test sequences directly from the front panel. Advanced list mode features include the ability to output multiple user-defined list mode programs in sequence and step triggering for synchronizing the power supply’s output with external events.
The 9240 Series battery charge mode provides configurable fail-safe settings to disable the output when a specified energy, capacity, or time threshold is reached protecting both the power supply and battery. Battery charge data including Wh, Ah, and time can be logged directly to a USB flash drive connected to the front panel USB host port. User-configurable battery charge profiles, instrument settings, and list mode programs can also be saved/recalled from the USB host port.
This series offers system integrators with LXI-compliant LAN and USB (USBTMC-compliant) interfaces standard for remote control. The provided LabVIEWTM, IVI-C, and IVI.NET drivers further simplify system development and integration. In addition to OVP, OCP, and OTP protections, these power supplies support remote inhibit and voltage fault features to protect both the power supply and the device under test (DUT).
Test system integration
- LXI-compliant LAN, USBTMC-compliant/USB Virtual COM Port selectable, and GPIB model option
- LabVIEWTM, IVI-C, and IVI.NET drivers simplify system development and integration
- Digital I/O terminal with remote inhibit and voltage fault protection
- Rear panel output terminal with remote sense
NISPOM compliance
The 9240 Series sanitation procedure complies with the NISPOM (National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual) requirements regarding classified information. NISPOM compliance is a common requirement for test equipment used in government-contracted work and is supported by agencies such as the U.S. Department of Defense.
Comprehensive protection and security
Overvoltage (OVP), overcurrent (OCP), and overtemperature (OTW/OTP) features help protect the power supply and DUT. The overtemperature warning (OTW) provides an additional layer of safety before the protection is triggered and the output is disabled. Other protection features include key-lock protection and remote inhibit, allowing the output to be disabled if fault conditions are met. The Kensington security slot on the rear panel helps prevent theft.
Output safety
The output terminals are uniquely designed to accept sheathed banana plugs for increased safety, as well as spade lug connectors, preferred in many industrial settings. The use of sheathed banana plugs is often required by educational institutions.
