Features and benefits:

  • Modular design, allowing master-slave operation for higher current models
  • An integral electronic polarity-reversing switch option can be fitted
  • Independently fail-safe protected, air-cooled and has an internal high-stability shunt for greater accuracy
  • IEEE-488 and optically isolated RS232 operation with short-form codes for ease of automatic computer operation and confirmation of the operational status shown by a backlit liquid crystal display on the front panel
  • Adjustable output for persistent switch heater
  • Fully configurable from the front panel or using the remote interface
  • With optional reversing switch
  • Automated quench monitoring and safe shut-down
