Gossen Konstanter 24K80R1.6 DC Power Supply Unit 80V 1.6A

The Gossen Konstanter 24K80R1.6 is a programmable DC power supply delivering 80V at 1.6A (128W output) for demanding R&D, production, and test applications. Dual voltage input (AC 115V / AC 230V +10/−15%, 48–63 Hz) with voltage and current regulation enables flexible bench and rack-mount deployment. The unit generates exceptionally fast transient response - sub-4 ms rise and fall times - critical for complex test signal generation and low-frequency analog signal superimposition.
