Ametek / Xantrex / Sorensen XTS 15-4 DC Power Supply

The Ametek Xantrex Sorensen XTS 15-4 is a 60 W programmable linear DC power supply designed for benchtop and system integration in laboratory, industrial, development, and OEM environments. This quarter-rack unit delivers 0–15 V DC at 0–4 A with automatic constant-voltage/constant-current crossover, dual digital displays, and dual LED analog bar graphs for real-time output monitoring.
