FX Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The FX Series is designed for simulating high power levels for testing watt-hour meters, characterizing circuit breakers and fuses, and evaluating high current relays and switch devices. It offers computer control for automated systems, allowing remote programming and data collection.
Specifications: The FX Series provides single-phase outputs up to 200 A and 270V, with power level simulation up to 54kW. For three-phase systems, it can simulate up to 162 kW. It includes an independent measurement system for monitoring load parameters without additional instrumentation.
Single Phase Systems: A single chassis includes a 1500 VA voltage source with a 270V output and a 200 A current source. The voltage and current outputs are synchronized in frequency, with adjustable phase relationships to simulate different load power factors.
Multi-Phase Systems: Additional chassis are added for two or three-phase systems, with phase lock to ensure phase angle integrity. The system can simulate outputs with different power factors on each phase, crucial for evaluating multi-phase systems with unbalanced loads.
Current Source: The FX Series offers a wide range of controllable constant current output from 20 mA to 200 A, with three ranges for good resolution at low current settings.
Measurement Capability: The FX Series includes a fully independent measurement system for verifying output settings or determining load characteristics, with parameters selectable manually or by computer control.
Programmability: The system is programmable via a computer controller, supporting IEEE-488 bus and other systems like RS232C and VXI. All setup parameters, including voltage, current, frequency, and phase angle, can be controlled.
Design and Calibration: The FX Series uses a pulse width modulated conversion technique for high efficiency, reducing power usage and heat generation. It allows for routine calibration with minimal disruption.
General Specifications: The FX Series conforms to various specifications, including voltage output range, phase angle, frequency, and current output. It includes protection features like overcurrent, overpower, short circuit, and over-temperature protection.
Ordering Information: The document provides details on ordering, including model numbers, options, and contact information for California Instruments.

FX Series -1

Remote programming andcollection of measurement data > Simulation of power levels up to54kW > Power level simulation up to 162KW for Three-Phase Operation A single chassis includes a 1500VA voltage source with 270V output (optional 312V L-N) and a 200 A Current Source, which is derived from exactly the same master oscillator as the voltage source. This means that the voltage and current outputs are at precisely the same frequency, although the phase relationship between the two may be varied to simulate different load power factors. > Monitors load parameters withoutadditional instrumentation > Whether the application is powersimulation or just AC current, the FX Series provides a very wide range of controllable constant current output from 20 mA to 200 A. The currentsource section features three ranges to ensure good resolution at low current settings. In fact, the 2 A range is usable down to 20 mA. The 20 A to 200A output is available via bus bar outputs, whereas outputs below 20 A are available at the rear panel barrier strip. > With the combined voltage andcurrent source in a single compact chassis, the FX Series is the ideal choice for the simulation of high power levels. Either single or multi-phase, this versatile source can simulate power levels from just a few milliwattsto 54kW single phase or 162 kW three-phase and provides a universal system for both manual and programmable control applications. > For either two or three phasesystems, additional chassis are added. The individual oscillators are clocked from a single master, with a phase lock to ensure phase angle integrity. In multi-phase systems, the phase angle of the voltage may be varied independently as well as the phase angle between the voltageand current source for each phase. The system can simulate two or three-phase outputs with a different P.F. on each phase. This is extremely important when evaluating measurement or control scenarios for multi-phase systems with unbalanced loads. >
