New DC power supplies GW Instek PHU

The PHU Series is a single channel programmable DC power supply with multi-range output feature which offers a wide range of voltage and current combinations for greater flexibility. The circuit design adopts SiC (silicon carbide) components to achieve high power density characteristics which can generate 15 kW high output and keep the compact size at just 3 U height.

PHU's wide voltage and current range, along with its high-power characteristics, can cover a broader range of testing applications such as photovoltaic systems, electric vehicles (EVs), and automotive electronics, etc. The launch of PHU high-power DC power supplies enhances the completeness of the DC power supply product line of GW Instek, and to provide customers with more comprehensive and integrated solutions.

There are a total of 18 models, consisting of 3 power capacities (5 kW/10 kW/15 kW) and 6 voltages (80 V/200 V/500 V/750 V/1000 V/1500 V) to meet all customer needs:

The unique APC (Adaptive Parallel Connection) feature offers adaptability in parallel connection, allowing users to make the best choice according to their needs. For instance, users can opt for a 15 kW model and a 10 kW model, to combine both to reach a 25 kW capacity within their budget constraints. Up to 10 PHU units can be connected to reach 150 kW without the need for additional power distribution for control.

For industry interface, PHU provides a variety of embedded industrial interface options to meet user needs. The available ports including EtherCAT, CANopen, Modbus, Profinet and DeviceNet, etc. Except the standard built-in programmable sequence function, PHU also offers a variety optional functions including Datalogger, Solar Array Simulator, AH/WH Meter and Battery Simulation to meet customer’s requirements.
