The N.H. Research S310 DC Power Supply Mini Tester is a modular, automated power testing platform that consolidates multiple instruments into a single integrated unit. This benchtop or GPIB-controlled system performs functional testing and evaluation of DC power supplies with precision measurement capabilities built into each module. The S310 features a 6-slot chassis supporting modular DC electronic loads and programmable DC power supplies, delivering up to 2,400 W maximum system power. Each module includes precision measurement circuitry and operates across exceptionally wide ranges—often double industry standards—enabling both current and future test requirements.
The system automates complex test sequences through macro-recording and playback functionality. Engineers create and store up to 128 independent test programs, each containing up to 100 individual test steps, all executed from the front panel with one-keystroke playback. Test results log to the front panel display, external printer, or connected PC. The S310 operates as a stand-alone benchtop instrument or integrates into larger automatic test stations via GPIB control, making it suitable for R&D labs, manufacturing test floors, and quality assurance environments. N.H. Research products conform to MIL-I-45208A quality assurance and MIL-STD-28800C standards.
