The GOSSEN konstanter 60V 15A is a precision DC power supply engineered for laboratory, industrial, and research applications demanding stable, controlled power delivery. The unit operates in both constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) modes with automatic mode transition based on load conditions and setpoints. It features active power factor control, broad-range mains input compatibility, and excellent dynamic response to setpoint changes and load transients. Manual control is provided via rotary encoders or numeric keypad with onboard display. Remote operation and computer integration are supported through USB and RS 232 interfaces, with optional GPIB (IEEE 488) capability for system integration.
