- B&K Precision’s new MR series of DC power supplies comprises three models providing voltages up to 250 V, 500 V and 1000 V with an output power of 5 kW.
Integrated in a 2U housing, the MR series power supplies have a LAN interface that complies with the LXI standard, as well as the IVI-C and IVI.NET drivers required for integration in automated test systems. They also feature standard GPIB, USB (USBTMC compatible) and analog programming interfaces.
These power supplies have list mode programming capabilities with adjustable slew rates. Operating software is provided for executing test sequences and recording data without the need to write source code.
These power supplies are cTUVus certified, which meets both the U.S. (UL 61010-1:2012) and Canadian (CAN/CSA-C22.2 NO. 61010-1-12) safety standards. TÜV Rheinland is accredited by OSHA as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL).
