New AC, DC and AC+DC power supplies Pacific Power AFX

Pacific Power introduced the new AFX Series  family of power supplies. The AFX Series consists of a range of high power switching AC, DC and AC+DC capable power sources covering a power range from 9 kVA to 60 kVA. All AFX models offer single, split and three phase output configurations. The AFX is a state-of-the-art design using the latest digital power conversion technologies. Power density is among the highest in the industry allowing 15 kVA/kW of power in only 4U (7") of rack space.

Great emphasis has been placed on energy efficiency, ease of installation, and maximum power per cubic inch of rack space. Control and operational features provide a high degree of application versatility and ease of use for the test engineer. Applications range from simple, manually controlled frequency conversion to harmonic immunity testing and sophisticated transient simulation. Power conversion within the AFX Series is achieved by digitally controlled, high frequency pulse width modulation, resulting in cool, quiet and efficient operation.

Key features:

• AC Output, DC Output, AC+DC output
• DC, 15 to 1,200 Hz Frequency Range
• Single, constant power mode 300V L-N/520V L-L/425Vdc voltage range offers wider operating range
• Precision True-RMS metering of Volts, Amps, Power, VA, Power Factor and Crest Factor
• Compatible with UPC Studio graphical user interface
• 1, 2 or 3 Phase switch selectable output from front panel or bus command
• Sine, Square, Triangle, THD and Arbitrary waveforms
• Available in 208-240V or 380-480V 3 Phase AC input with active PFC
• 99 stored programs for both static and dynamic Transient Testing
• Continuous Self Calibration (CSC)
• Precision voltage programming - 0.02% with CSC engaged in AC and DC modes
• Power levels from 9 kVA to 60 kVA
• Standard RS-232, USB and Ethernet interface with SCPI compatibility
• LXI Compliant LAN/Ethernet with embedded web server
• IVI Instruments drivers

The AFX Series controller offers both manual and full programmable control. Front panel operation is menu driven using a combination of direct access menu keys to the left of the large color display and 5 soft keys located on the right of the display. The rotary knob can be used to scroll through menu fields and doubles as an ENTER key. The same knob allows for slewing of output parameters. A full decimal keypad is provided as well for direct parameter entry. The AFX can also be operated remotely from one of its included remote interfaces. Operation from a web browser via LAN or USB is also supported through the embedded web server of the AFX. All AFX models are designed for operation in 19 inch equipment racks. Models above 15 kVA require parallel operating of one AFX Master unit and one or more auxiliary no-controller (NC) units. Models 3300AFX through 3600AFX are available as cabinet systems with all internal input and output wiring, terminal blocks and parallel connections included.
