Data Sheet Programmable AC Power Sources 9800 Series 0 to 300 V, low distortion AC power source with models delivering a maximum of 1500 VA, 12 Arms / 48 Apeak * 9803 and 9805 models only The 9800 Series is both a programmable AC source and measurement tool. These fully programmable linear AC sources deliver a maximum of 1500 VA through the universal line output terminals on the front and the output connector on the rear. The output can be varied from 0 to 300 V with 0.1 V programming resolution. The output frequency can also be adjusted from 45 Hz to 500 Hz with start and stop phase angle from 0 to 360 degrees. The bright VFD display shows Vrms, Irms, Ipeak, frequency, power factor (PF), apparent power, true power, and elapsed output time. List mode can be used to generate sequences of waveforms such as surges, sags, and frequency disturbances. The programmed list can be triggered from the front panel or via BNC connector on the rear. Standard USB, RS232, LAN and GPIB* interfaces can be used to remotely control the source via a PC. Free application software and LabVIEW driver are available to reduce programming time and increase productivity. Output frequency adjustable from 45 Hz – 500 Hz Select 150 V / 300 V autoranging or 300 V range operation for continuous sweep from 0 - 300 V Displays Vrms, Irms, Ipeak, frequency, PF , apparent power, true power, and elapsed output time Adjustable phase angle control Programmable voltage and frequency limit settings Voltage and frequency sweep mode Common applications Built-in PLD and dimmer simulation These AC sources provide a power line disturbance (PLD) simulator, list mode, and sweep mode for simulation of common power grid faults and disturbances. A built-in dimmer function is also available for testing motors and LEDs. List mode: 10 user-defined programs with up to 100 programmable steps each The 9800 Series AC power sources are suitable I for evaluating transformers, TRIACs, SCRs and BNC I/O for external triggering, output status indication/control, and synchronization passive components as well as production, R&D, I service, and pre-compliance testing. I Save and recall up to 100 instrument settings Standard USB (USBTMC-compliant), RS232, LAN and GPIB* interfaces OVP/OCP/OPP/OTP protection modes and key lock function Pre-compliance testing for voltage dips and frequency simulations according to IEC61000-4-11 / 4-14 / 4-28 LabVIEW driver and softpanel for remote control available Technical data subject to change © B&K Precision Corp. 2015

Programmable AC Power Sources Flexible operation List mode List mode supports the generation of more complex sequences with varying times, amplitudes, and frequencies. Up to 100 steps in 10 groups can be saved and executed. This allows the user to build a wide range of waveforms in a seouence to simulate grid faults and disturbances. The programmed list can be triggered from the front panel or via BNC connector on the rear. List Mode Steps Power line disturbance (PLD) simulator The PLD simulator is an extended feature of list mode that provides the user with more control over the...

Programmable AC Power Sources Sweep mode The sweep function is ideal for testing the efficiency of switching power supplies or capturing the maximum operating power requirements of the device under test. User-defined voltage and frequency sweeps can be created independently or combined. Up to 10 sweep profiles can be stored and recalled. Voltage Sweep Frequency Sweep Voltage plus Frequency Sweep Dimmer simulation The dimmer feature can be used for many test applications such as motor control and lighting. By controlling the phase cut-off of the AC sine wave's leading or trailing edge, the...
