    Programmable source/load boasts industry’s best power density; bi-directional device replaces individual programmable source and programmable load

    San Diego, CA — Elektro-Automatik announces the EA-PSB 10000 30KW Programmable Bi-directional Power Supply. The 4U rack-mounted PSB 10000, engineered with advanced SiC power conversion devices switching at 150 kHz, boasts the industry’s best power density—requiring as little as half the rack space for the same power output as competing programmable supplies. The PSB 10000 combines an auto-ranging programmable power source and programmable load providing a single chassis solution for simulating source and load for wide range of applications including battery chargers and batteries, electric vehicle power trains, solar inverters and other power conversion devices and systems. The energy utilized in the test is then returned to the ac source via the programmable load’s regenerative output. The result is up to 95% reduction in the energy consumed in the test.

    The PSB 10000 features a wide range 3-phase input voltage 342-528V, 45-66 Hz, with output voltage ratings of 60V – 2,000V and current ratings from 40A-1000A. The device includes a wide range of programmable functions to simulate complex testing such as electric vehicle load profiles, battery charging, PV simulation per EN 50530 and MPP tracking, and others. The PSB 10000 front panel features a bright, color 5” TFT touch display. The bi-directional feature of the PSB 10000 has the added benefit of zero crossover loss, which eliminates dead-time in switching between programmable source and load which maintains constant power control of the unit under test.
