## Technical Specifications
### Output Characteristics
* **Output Voltage Ranges:** 0-32V, 0-130V, 0-260V
* **Output Frequency Range:** 45 Hz to 10,000 Hz
* **Load Power Factor:** +0.7 at full VA
* **Output Harmonic Distortion:** Less than 0.6% THD (worst case)
* **Line Regulation:** +0.25% at full load for a ±10% change in input line voltage
* **Load Regulation:** +1% from no load to full load over the full frequency range and ±10% input range. Adjustable to better than 0.1% for specific load conditions. Fixed frequency systems always less than 0.25%
* **Response Time:** Less than 50 microseconds
* **Noise Level:** 70 dB below full output
* **Gain Stability:** ±0.25% for 24 hours at constant line, load, and temperature
### Ultra Precision Line Conditioner (UPLC) Specifics
* **Response Time:** Less than 20 microseconds. This is approximately 5000 times faster than conventional regulating line conditioners.
* **Output Harmonic Distortion:** Less than 0.2% THD maximum for up to 10% input harmonic distortion
* **Line Regulation:** ±0.025% for a ±10% input AC line variation
* **Load Regulation:** ±0.025% for a 100% load change into a unity to zero lagging or leading PF load
* **Transient Suppression:** Provides 1000:1 ratio reduction of high-frequency power line transients
* **Supports High Crest Factor Loads:** Capable of providing low distortion power for non-linear loads that draw high peak currents, ideal for critical loads with switching DC power supplies
### Input Characteristics
* **Input Voltage Ranges:** Specific ranges are selected by a 3-position tap switch. Options include 95-115V, 105-125V, 115-135V for the 95-135V range; 180-220V, 200-240V, 220-260V for the 180-260V range; and 200-240V, 220-260V, 240-280V for the 200-280V range. A 115V output with 230V input is available by adding “-230” to the model number. 100V/115V output with 100V input is also available (consult factory).
* **Power Factor Corrected (PFC) Universal Input:** Allows maximum power delivery from an AC outlet without manual range selection.
### Interfaces and Control
* **Programmability:** Can be externally programmed by a computer or other digital commands via an Elgar Decoder Programmer Oscillator. This enables automatic testing of end products under simulated power conditions.
* **Remote Voltage Sense:** Standard feature for accurate output voltage control at the load.
* **Output-On Switch:** Separate switch to control power to the load.
### Physical Characteristics
* **Dimensions:** Rackmountable chassis, can be used in benchtop applications or mounted in 19” cabinets. Specific height and depth vary by model (e.g., 6006B model listed with physical dimensions).
* **Indicators and Controls:** Front panel includes meters for input and output voltage, output load current, an overload indicator, and an input circuit breaker.
### Environmental
* **Operating Temperature:** 0° to +55°C
* **Storage Temperature:** -40° to +80°C
### Compatibility
* **Multi-Phase Operation:** Multiple units can be configured for multi-phase operation.
* **Parallel Configuration:** Units can be paralleled to provide extra power.
