The Sorensen DCS60-50 is a 3 kW programmable DC power supply built on high-frequency switching technology to deliver high power density in a compact, low-profile chassis. It maintains continuous full output power across any voltage/current combination within rated limits, providing stable DC power for test, burn-in, telecommunications, and laboratory applications. The unit features 10-turn potentiometers with simultaneous digital readout, automatic CV/CC crossover, and selectable remote programming via optional IEEE-488/RS-232, isolated analog, or multichannel slave interfaces.
