The Sorensen DCS60 is a programmable DC power supply engineered for electronic testing, development, and burn-in applications across aerospace, telecommunications, and industrial sectors. It delivers stable, precise power through continuously variable output voltage and current in Constant Voltage (CV) and Constant Current (CC) modes with automatic crossover. High-frequency switching regulator technology enables high power density in a compact, low-profile form factor, with output power available in 1 kW, 1.2 kW, or 3 kW configurations.
Technical Specifications
Output Characteristics
• Output voltage: 0 Vdc to rated maximum (0–60 Vdc for specific models)
• Output current: 0 A to rated maximum (0–18 A, 0–20 A, or 0–50 A depending on model)
• Regulation (line and load): 0.1% of rated output for both voltage and current
• Ripple (RMS): Typically 0.2%
• Transient response: Recovers within 500 µs to 1 ms to within 1% of steady-state output voltage for 70–100% or 100–70% load changes
