Operation
The B+K Precision Model 1760 Triple Output DC Power Supply provides two 0-30 volt DC outputs and one 4-6.5 volt DC output. The 0-30 V supplies have adjustable coarse and fine voltage controls and can output up to 2 amps. The 4-6.5 V supply can output up to 5 amps. The two 0-30 volt supplies can operate independently or in series tracking mode, where the “B” Supply tracks the voltage of the “A” Supply, or in parallel tracking mode, where they provide a single output. The supplies can operate in constant voltage or constant current modes, with automatic crossover. The unit includes overload protection and reverse polarity protection. The output is isolated from chassis and earth ground, allowing flexible connections.
