The PWX series is a CVCC programmable regulated DC power supply designed to optimize for a rack-mounted power supply. To increase its mounting efficiency, it has a 19-inch rack width with a thin shape and intakes and outtakes for cooling on only the front and back surfaces so that it can be mounted flush top and bottom. The series is equipped standard with USB, RS-232C, and LAN interfaces, which are essential for system upgrades. The series also has a virtual multi-channel bus (VMCB) function that allows it to be used efficiently for remote control and monitoring with 1-to-N and as well as with N-to-M in large-scale networks. In particular, the LAN interface is LXI compliant*, enabling you to control and monitor the power supply easily from a browser on a PC, smartphone, or tablet. You can also manage the power supply in a different building.
Two output power specifications are available: 750 W and 1500 W, and a wide range of voltage and current settings can be combined within its output power rating (3 times). For example, the output power of 1500 W model, the PWX1500ML is capable to operate seamlessly from the range of “80 V-18.75 A” to “26.8 V-56 A”. The input voltage has a universal 85 V to 265 V input voltage range, and the unit also has an internal power factor correction (PFC) circuit to control the harmonic current. It also includes an analog external control/monitoring output, master-slave parallel operation function, various protective functions, and memory function.
