TPS/M is an high performance variable voltage generator (amplitude and frequency) in order to simulate and electrical line for test for different application (laboratory , test line, production line) Responsability: Elettrotest disclaims any responsibility for damage to people or things caused by an improper use of its products . Mandatory Verify voltage, power and frequency compatibility between TPS range and electrical specification of equipment under test (EUT).

1. INTRODUCTION TPS is a power source that supplies sinusoidal stable voltage. Its output voltage is adjustable in frequency, amplitude and phase. It also has the ability to generate very precise and stabilized DC voltage. 1.1. MAIN FEATURES 1.1.1. Output voltage The output voltage is guaranteed perfectly DC or sinusoidal, with a distortion of less than 0.3% regardless of the load.
1.1.3. User interface TPS is intended to have an user friendly interface. It is also featured the possibility of an host computer control, thus allowing to perform tests automatically. TPS allows various usage selections: wires drop compensation, working frequency. Furthermore, TPS gives the user clear information on the status of the output.

2.2. PROTECTION DEVICE 2.2.1. GENERAL DIAGRAM Mandatory Safety protection (Magneto-thermal and differential) are mandatory according to the nominal TPS characteristic. An additional adequate protection must be add when electrical components (cable, Equipment under test – EUT) cannot support TPS performance. 2.2.2.
(see section 1.2). 2.2.4. LINE FUSES Fuses can be used to protect power line of the TPS. It's recommended to use delayed fuses according to the nominal input characteristic (see section 1.2). 2.2.5. INTERNAL FUSES TPS/M/D 1K5 Item Name Description...
