This unit

The BK Precision 1790 is a, programmable DC power supply designed for applications requiring stable and precise power. It has both constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) operation, with excellent regulation and low noise output, making it suitable for sensitive testing environments, particularly in the telecommunications industry. The unit works with bench or standard 19-inch rack operation and features a user-friendly interface with front panel controls for adjusting voltage and current.

Features and Functionality * CV/CC Operation: Automatically crosses over from constant voltage to constant current mode and vice versa if output exceeds preset limits.

  • Remote Sensing: Compensates for voltage drop in load leads.
  • External Analog Programming Interface: Allows for remote control and automation of settings.
  • Presetting Output Limits: Facility for presetting the output voltage and maximum load current limits.
  • Output ON/OFF Switch: Separate switch for controlling the DC output.
  • Panel Meters: Front panel LED meters for monitoring voltage and current.
  • Output Terminal Flexibility: Either positive or negative output terminal may be grounded or floated up to a maximum of ±300 VDC above ground.
  • Low Noise Output: Critical for telecom applications where power supply noise can interfere with testing.

Interfaces * Front Panel: * Load Terminals * Remote Sense Terminals * Voltage and Current adjustment controls * LED Meters for Voltage and Current indication * Output ON/OFF switch * LIMIT switch for presetting voltage and current

Physical Characteristics * Form Factor: Benchtop or 19-inch rack mountable
