0V Input Electronic Load / PLZ-4W Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The PLZ-4W Series is a versatile electronic load designed for applications requiring low voltage, high speed, and large capacity. It offers power ratings of 165 W, 330 W, 660 W, and 1000 W, with models supporting 0-V input and high-speed response.
Specifications: The series supports six operation modes: constant current, resistance, voltage, power, and combinations thereof. It features a high-speed response with a maximum slew rate of 16 A/μs and a minimum setting resolution of 10 μA.
Key Features: Includes timer functions for battery evaluations, booster units for increased capacity, and sequence functions. Equipped with GPIB, RS-232C, and USB 2.0 ports for communication.
Applications: Suitable for testing power supplies, batteries, converters, fuel cells, and adapters, especially effective for low-voltage, high-current DC/DC converters.
Control and Operation: Offers control functions like soft start, short-circuit, and load on/off operations. Supports remote sensing and switching functions up to 20 kHz.
Advanced Testing Support: Provides sequence functions for high-speed simulations and detailed step execution, with elapsed time display and auto load off timer for battery testing.
Configuration Settings: Allows configuration of operation and communication settings, stored in memory for recall. Includes settings for parallel load units, communication interface, and response speed.
Response Speed Setting: Adjustable response speed for negative feedback control, stabilizing operations in constant current and resistance modes.
Memory Functions: Includes ABC preset memories and setup memories for storing configurations, including operation modes and protection settings.
Protection Functions: Features protection functions like over current, power, voltage, under voltage, heat protection, and reverse connection detection.
Sample Programs: Free sample programs and utility software available for setup memory management and remote control via USB.
Booster and Parallel Operation: The PLZ2004WB booster unit expands capacity, allowing up to four boosters in parallel. Parallel operation without boosters supports up to five units.
External Controls: Supports external controls via GPIB, RS-232C, USB, and analog interfaces for operations like load on/off and current monitoring.
Specifications Overview: Detailed specifications for models like PLZ164W, PLZ334W, PLZ1004W, PLZ164WA, and PLZ664WA, including slew rate settings and accuracy.
Operational Features: Models operate in constant current and resistance modes, with remote sensing capabilities and voltage compensation.
Protection Functions: Includes protection functions to prevent damage under specific conditions.
Sequence Functionality: Supports normal and fast sequence operations with varying steps and execution times.
Communication and Connectivity: Supports communication via GPIB, RS-232C, and USB for remote control and data acquisition.
General Specifications: Input voltage ranges from 100 VAC to 240 VAC, with specific power consumption and operating temperature ranges.
Compliance and Safety: Conforms to EMC and safety standards, requiring proper grounding for safety.
Physical and Environmental Details: Includes dimensions, weight, and mounting options, with environmental conditions for operation and storage.
Additional Information: Products are intended for use under qualified supervision and are not designed for home use. Specifications and designs are subject to change without notice.

Operation setting keys LOCAL/LOCK key > These keys are used to set the basic value (current, conductance, voltage, or power), operation mode, range, slew rate, protection function, etc. This rotary knob is used to set various values. You can switch between the coarse adjustment mode and fi ne adjustment mode by pressing the rotary knob. In fi ne adjustment (FINE) mode, the value changes at one-tenth of the rate applied in coarse adjustment mode. Rotating the rotary knob while holding down the SHIFT key changes the contrast of the display. his key is used to switch to the local operation mode...
