NL Source-Sink

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document outlines the specifications and functionalities of the NL series Source-Sinks, which are versatile four-quadrant power supply units. These units are designed for laboratory, production, and quality assurance applications, functioning as both voltage/current sources and current sinks. They offer power ratings from 100W to 3,520W, with customization available for higher power needs.
Specifications: The NL series supports a voltage range up to ±50V (bipolar) and up to 100V (unipolar), with currents reaching 320A. They operate in constant current (CC) and constant voltage (CV) modes, with rapid switching capabilities between source and sink modes. Standard interfaces include RS232 and USB, with optional GPIB and Smart-LAN interfaces.
Operating Modes: These devices can function in two-quadrant or four-quadrant modes, allowing for current supply or consumption in reverse direction. The unipolar version supports a limited four-quadrant mode with a negative output voltage up to -1V.
Applications: The NL series is ideal for testing batteries, accumulators, generators, solar panels, electrical drive systems, battery chargers, power supplies, and electrical components. It is also used for load simulations, dynamic tests, lifetime tests, and battery simulations.
Interfaces and Control: Equipped with RS232 and USB interfaces as standard, with options for GPIB and Smart-LAN, these devices can be remotely controlled via an analog I/O connector, with options for galvanic isolation. They support fast data acquisition and dynamic testing through software tools.
Cooling and Housing: The devices are air-cooled with fans that adjust based on power and current to minimize noise. They are housed in robust 19" rack mount cases, suitable for bench-top use or cabinet installation, with optional castors for mobility.
Options and Accessories: Available options include relay contacts, logic inputs, fast data acquisition, galvanically isolated interfaces, and factory calibration certificates. Additional features like a temperature interface board and power I/O board can be retrofitted.
Technical Data: Devices are available in various sizes, with dimensions ranging from 2HU to 14HU and weights from 13 kg to 105 kg. Voltage ranges from ±8V to ±80V and current from ±2A to ±320A. Power ratings vary from 100W to 3,520W, with a consistent rise/fall time of 200 µs for both current and voltage. Power consumption varies by model, with mains supply typically at 115/230 VAC or 230/400 VAC with a 16A requirement.
Accuracy and Resolution: Display accuracy is ±0.1% for voltage and ±0.2% for current, with 16-bit resolution for settings and 18-bit for standard measurement readings.
Operating Conditions and Protection: Devices operate between 5°C and 40°C, with derating above 21°C. Protection features include current and voltage limitation, over-temperature deactivation, and emergency shutdown. Up to three devices can be operated in a master-slave configuration.
Standards and Compliance: Devices comply with DIN EN 61010-1 for electric safety and DIN EN 61326-1 for EMC, among other standards.
Additional Notes: For 19" rack mounting, slide bars are recommended due to device weight. Specific models, such as the NL06, offer extended voltage ranges.

——————–————– —————————————–————–— Functions ———————-————— Operating modes The NL Source-Sinks are capable of operating in constant voltage or constant current mode. When a device is operating in voltage mode, two current limitations (source current and sink current) can be set independently of each other. In current mode an upper and a lower voltage limitation can be set. SourceSource-Sink mode Depending on the output setting and the characteristics of the item being tested, the device automatically determines whether it will operate as a source or as a sink. Change from source to sink mode occurs...
