The PSP 10 is a single-phase, computer controlled voltage and current source, designed for use in meter test systems and in the laboratory. The model is housed in a 19”-plug-in unit, 6 height modules.
The PSP 10 creates a single-phase network, using a base of electronically generated sine waves. The network is completely independent of the supply voltage, and the use of a voltage stabiliser at the entry point is not necessary. The amplifiers are of pulse-width modulation type.
The PSP 10 is controlled by a PC via RS 232 C serial standard interface with the STE 10 as control unit.
For safety reasons adding the STE 10 control unit to the PSP 10 is strongly recommended. The STE 10 has the following functions:
On-Off switch
Emergency stop switch
Surveillance of the mains power supply and protection against short circuits between U and I in the output circuits.
In the test station, the PSP 10 is provided with further components, e.g. control unit, reference meter, completely wired in a cabinet.
