The HP/Agilent 60504B is a 600W DC electronic load module that plugs into the 6050A or 6051A mainframe to enable precise testing and characterization of DC power sources, batteries, and power components. It operates across a 3V to 60V range with current capability up to 120A, supporting four independent operating modes: constant voltage (CV), constant current (CC), constant resistance (CR), and constant power (CP). The module includes programmable current slew rate control, front-panel LCD metering of voltage, current, and power, plus GPIB interface for remote instrument control and data acquisition.
