Programmable AC Power Sources 9800/B Series - 1

Data Sheet Programmable AC Power Sources 9800/B Series LAN GPIB (select models) to 300 V, low distortion AC power source with models delivering a maximum of The 9800/B 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. 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 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, and LAN interfaces can be used to remotely control the source via a PC. GPIB is available as an option for select models. Free application software and LabVIEWTM driver are available to reduce programming time and increase productivity. 1500 VA, 12 Arms / 36 Apeak n Output 45 Hz to 500 Hz n Select 150 V / 300 V autoranging or 300 V range operation for continuous sweep from 0 to 300 V n Displays Vrms, Irms, Ipeak, frequency, PF, apparent power, true power, and elapsed output time n Adjustable voltage and frequency limit settings Common applications The 9800/B Series AC power sources are suitable for evaluating transformers, TRIACs, SCRs and passive components as well as production, R&D, service, and pre-compliance testing. and frequency sweep mode mode: 10 user-defined programs with up to 100 programmable steps each n BNC I/O for external triggering, output status indication/control, and synchronization and recall up to 100 instrument settings phase angle control frequency adjustable from *Model numbers with suffix B (980xB) do not include a GPIB interface.

Programmable AC Power Sources 9800/B Series 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 sequence 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...

Programmable AC Power Sources 9800/B Series Sweep mode Dimmer simulation 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. 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 dimmer simulation varies the RMS voltage...
