Programmable AC Source, 0-3000V, 15-1.5kHz / 12kVA, 1 or 3 Phase
The global market for AC power testing demands for more sophisticated, high performance AC power source that is capable of simulating a wide range of AC line conditions. Chroma 61500/61600 series programmable AC source are the right solution to meet the market requirements by providing the ability to simulate various AC line input conditions and measurement of critical characteristic for products under test. These features make the 61500/61600 series ideal for commercial, power electronics, avionics, military and regulation test applications from bench-top R/D design verification, quality assurance to mass production.
Using the state of the art PWM technology, the models 61511/61512/61611/61612 can deliver the maximum output voltage up to 300Vac and output frequency from 15Hz to 1500Hz. The AC+DC modes extend the applications not only for providing pure AC voltage, but also DC component for DC offset testing in laboratory. The 61511/61512/61611/61612 AC sources are capable of delivering up to 4 times of peak current compared to its maximum rated current that makes it ideal for inrush current test. All models possess the ability to generate pure sine waveform output with typical distortion less than 0.3% at 50/60Hz.
Chroma 61500/61600 series are able to provide precision measurements such as RMS voltage, RMS current, true power, power factor, current crest factor and so on. By applying the advanced DSP technology, model 61511/61512 can easily simulate power line disturbance (PLD) by LIST, PULSE and STEP modes.
Chroma 61500/61600 series allow users to compose different harmonic components to synthesize various harmonic distorted waveforms. By applying this advance feature, users can program a sweeping frequency component incorporate with fundamental voltage for finding the resonance points of UUT, thus provide user with in depth analysis result.
To simulate the natural waveform, the 61500/61600 series provide an external analog input to amplify the analog signal generated from arbitrary signal generator. Thus, user can implement this feature to duplicate the unique waveform observed in the field.
The user friendly interface allows user quick access to 61511/61512/61611/61612 AC source’s functions through large graphic LCD display front panel with clear indicated keypad. The GPIB (IEEE488.2), RS-232, USB and Ethernet interface are available for users to control the AC source remotely.
