This unit
The Instek PSH-6018A is a 1080W programmable switching DC power supply engineered for laboratory, industrial, and automated testing environments where stable, precise power delivery is critical. It combines high power density with efficient switching technology and power factor correction to maximize energy utilization across a wide input voltage range. The unit operates in both constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) modes with 0–60V output and 0–18A current capability, delivering low ripple and noise for signal-integrity applications. Comprehensive protection includes over-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature safeguards.
