B&K HMR Series – HMR500108 DC Power Supply

The HMR Series 10 kW / 18 kW multi-range DC power supplies provide dependable performance for ATE applications requiring a wide output voltage and current in a compact 3U form factor. Unlike conventional fixed-range power supplies, multi-range (autoranging) operation enables the HMR Series to deliver maximum power at multiple voltage / current combinations. Integrators will benefit from fast command response times and low noise characteristics. Additionally, the wide AC input range simplifies installation.

The large touchscreen display combined with dedicated rotary knobs and output on/off button offer intuitive front panel control. The HMR Series also supports USB and LXI compliant LAN interfaces for remote PC control and programming. Optional GPIB and analog interface modules are user-installable. PC software is provided for test sequence generation and data logging without the need to write source code. The built-in web server enables remote instrument control from a web browser.

Key Facts:

• Output Voltage 500 V

• Output Current 108 A

• Multi-range operation, capable of replacing multiple fixed range power supplies

• Compact 3U form factor

Multi-range Operation

Conventional power supplies with rectangular output characteristics only provide maximum output power at one voltage/current point. Multi-range functionality of the HMR Series expands the maximum power output from one point to a curve illustrated in the figure. This flexibility enables multi-range power supplies to replace multiple fixed range power supplies, reducing equipment requirements and simplifying test setups.
