The PHU series from GW Instek offers highly flexible, powerful DC power supplies for modern test and development environments. Equipped with innovative SiC technology and a multi-range output, the devices enable a wide range of applications from research to test benches and production. The compact design, intuitive web control and wide range of interfaces make the series ideal for demanding automation and test requirements.
General features of the series:
- Multi-range output: Flexible current and voltage ranges - one device for many applications.
- Advanced Web Server (AWS): Complete control via the browser - no software installation required.
- Adaptive Parallel Connection (APC): Up to 10 devices can be combined for outputs of up to 450 kW (depending on model).
- Broad range of interfaces: LAN, USB (type A/B), EtherCAT, CANopen, Modbus, Profinet, DeviceNet.
- Advanced safety and convenience functions: CV/CC priority, programmable slew rate, bleeder switching, resistance simulation, panel lock.
The PHU 80-510-D model offers a maximum output power of 45 kW at up to 80 VDC voltage and 510 A current. It is designed for applications with extremely high current requirements at low voltage - particularly in the field of 48 V systems, high-current tests and energy storage technology. Typical fields of application are:
- Testing large 48 V batteries and power distribution systems with over 500 A
- Simulation of highly dynamic loads in automotive, industrial and energy applications
- Power supplies for test benches of DC motors and control units in the high-current range
- Lifetime tests and characterization of high-current power components
- Use in automated high-current test systems in production and development
