The Power Design TW347D is a dual linear-mode DC power supply engineered for laboratory and industrial bench applications. Each of two independently controllable sources operates in constant voltage or constant current mode with automatic crossover, delivering high-resolution control via ten-turn potentiometers and switch-selectable metering for voltage or current monitoring. The unit incorporates a front-panel adjustable crowbar for overvoltage protection and a tracking mode where source B automatically follows source A to within 10 millivolts.
