GW Instek PEL-3041H 350W/800V Programmable Electronic Load

Description

The Instek PEL3041H, a single-channel, programmable DC electronic load with 0.01mA current resolution and 0.84A/us current Slew rate, is ideal for testing server power supply and SPS (Switching Power Supply) for commercial and industrial computers. The PEL-3041H programmable DC Electronic load, which not only inherits functions and features from the PEL-3000 Series but provides three current ranges and adds voltage monitor BNC terminals on the front panel. The PEL-3041H is ideal for the test of high voltage devices such as the EV & HEV in-vehicle chargers, DC/DC converters or high-voltage batteries. The PEL-3000(H) Series fulfills various power testing requirements including medium to low power or high-power power supply.

The PEL-3041H has seven operating modes and three operating functions. Among the seven operating modes, four of them are basic operating modes, including constant current, constant voltage, constant resistance, and constant power, and the other three are advanced operating modes including constant current + constant voltage, constant resistance + constant voltage, and constant power + constant voltage. Users must first select operating mode and then operating function based upon the test requirements. Static, Dynamic and Sequence operating functions can be applied to different testing conditions including a fixed load level, switching between two levels or switching among more than two levels. Sequence function is divided into Fast Sequence and Normal Sequence according to the test time of each step. Both Dynamic and Sequence are to assist users to simulate the genuine load change. For instance, the PEL-3041H can simulate HEV current consumption to make sure that automobile battery can supply HEV with sufficient power need on the road. By so doing, manufacturers can elevate product quality and reliability.

The Soft Start function of the PEL3041H can set current rise time from the moment it is turned on to reduce the abnormal situation of the voltage drop of power supply under test. The adjustable Under Voltage Protection (UVP), GO/NO GO voltage input monitoring function, current monitoring function and Timer Function control load activation time. They can be jointly applied to the characteristic tests of battery bleeding to avoid battery damage during bleeding operation. Based upon the functionalities described above, the PEL-3041H can test a vast variety of power supply ranging from the fundamental static sink current to complex dynamic load simulations so as to enhance product quality and reliability.
