The manual details interface navigation, voltage/current settings, sequence editing/testing, constant power mode, protection features, system settings, output management, charge testing, and factory reset procedures.
Guidelines for regular maintenance and fault self-inspection are provided to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the device.
Technical specifications are detailed to ensure users understand the capabilities and limitations of the N36200 series power supply.
The N36200 series is a programmable DC power supply with an ultra-compact size and high power density, featuring a 1U height and half 19-inch width design. Key specifications include a voltage range of 0-80V, a current range of 0-42A, and a power output of 1600W. It supports fast dynamic response with a voltage rise and fall time of ≤10ms and offers multiple communication options including LAN, RS232, RS485, and CAN, supporting protocols like Modbus-RTU, SCPI, and CANopen.
The N36200 can connect to a computer via Ethernet, allowing simultaneous control of multiple devices through a LAN port. Users can modify the IP address on the LCD screen, with a default port number of 7000 and default ID of 160. For RS232 communication, baud rates can be set at 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, and 115200.
The dimensions are 214mm (W) x 433mm (D) x 44.5mm (H). The front panel includes a switch, screen, device name display, operation mode buttons, a parameter setting knob, and an air outlet for cooling. The rear panel features an AC power socket, RS232 interface, LAN port, RS485/CAN interface, and a DC power supply output interface.
The LAN port is the default communication port, and the RS232 interface uses a male DB-9 connector with a default baud rate of 9600. The RS485/CAN interface includes connectors for RS485A, RS485B, GND, CANH, and CANL. A four-wire interface is available for local and remote sensing, with a maximum compensated voltage drop of 2V at the SENSE terminal.
Upon powering on, the device enters V/I mode directly. The menu offers options such as V/I, SEQ Test, SEQ Edit, CP, Protection, System, Output, Charge Test, Factory Reset, and About Us. The N36200 features a 3.2-inch color LCD display with a resolution of 820 x 320, displaying specifications, status, and parameter settings.
The device includes protection settings for under voltage (UVP), over voltage (OVP), over current (OCP), and over power (OPP). Each protection feature can be set with specific values and delay times, and when triggered, the device will shut down the output and alert the user with a buzzer and status bar indication.
OPP is triggered when the output power exceeds a set point for a duration longer than the protection delay time. The device responds by shutting down the output, sounding a buzzer intermittently, and displaying 'OPP' on the interface. OTP activates when the internal temperature exceeds 85 degrees, shutting down the output, sounding a buzzer, and displaying 'OTP'.
Users can configure Device IP, Device ID, Series Rate, Buzzer, language, CAN ID, and CAN Rate.
Users can adjust internal resistance, voltage rise time, current rise time, discharge ON/OFF, and CV/CC priority. The power supply operates in constant voltage (CV) or constant current (CC) mode based on load conditions.
In CV priority mode, the voltage is regulated with minimal overshoot, suitable for high impedance loads. In CC priority mode, the current is regulated, ideal for low impedance loads like batteries.
The device supports battery charging tests, allowing users to set charging voltage, current, and stop conditions such as time, end voltage, and capacity.
Users can restore factory settings via the menu. The 'About Us' section provides company information.
Regular cleaning and self-inspection steps are outlined to ensure device functionality. Calibration is recommended annually.
The N36216-80-42 model specifications include a voltage range of 0-80V, current range of 0-42A, and power of 1600W. It features high accuracy, low ripple, and fast response times. The device supports multiple communication interfaces and operates efficiently within specified environmental conditions.
