Getting Started 2.1 Input Power and Fuse Requirements The supply has a selectable AC input that accepts line voltage input within: Voltage: 115 V or 230 V (±10%) • Frequency: 47 Hz – 63 Hz • Before connecting to an AC outlet or external power source, be sure that the power switch is in the OFF position and verify that the AC power cord, including the extension line, is compatible with the rated voltage/current and that there is sufficient circuit capacity for the...
2.3 Line Voltage Selection The power supplies can be selected to operate with 110 V input or 220 V input. To ensure that your instrument is properly configured to operate at the desired AC line voltage, please follow the steps below.
CAUTION Do not connect power to the instrument until the line voltage selection is setup correctly. Applying an incorrect line voltage or configuring the line voltage selection improperly may damage the instrument and void all warranty. 2.4 Ventilation CAUTION Also make sure the ventilation holes are not blocked. Ensure the ventilation fan is working well (it should turn on at power-on).
3.2 System Configuration Model 1415 can be operated alone or connected to two or more other units in series to obtain a higher voltage rating (maximum 240 V), or in parallel to obtain a higher current rating (maximum 24 A).
3.2.4 Multiple Units in Parallel Adjust all units to the same output voltage. Make the parallel connection of the positive and the negative terminals of units 1 and 2. Repeat for units 2 and 3, and so forth, if needed. Connect the load between the positive and negative terminals of the last unit.
Specifications All specifications apply to the unit after a temperature stabilization time of 15 minutes over an ambient temperature range of 25 °C ± 5 °C. 1415 Dual Output DC Power Supply Output Parameters Max Output Power 105 W Number of Outputs 2 independent &...
