HCS 3400/3402/3404
Remotely programmable switching power supply in laboratory quality
1. Introduction
Since the introduction of the HCS power supply series in 2009, we have made numerous
improvements to the hardware modules, the firmware and the software framework. In the current
version of the HCS power supply series, both the hardware and the firmware have been modified
and new functions have been added to the application software.
Additional functions on the user interface:
1. Set the current display to zero if no load is connected
2. Resetting the three presets to factory settings
2. Warnings / safety instructions

Never touch or use this power supply unit with wet hands.
•
Never open the housing of the power supply unit if it is still connected to the mains
•
power supply.

•
Before changing the appliance fuse at the mains connection, first look for the cause of
•
the fault and rectify it.
Only replace the fuse with the same type/value as the original fuse.
•
The maximum output voltage of the HCS 3404 model is more than 60 V DC. It is
•
therefore essential to avoid touching the output connection terminals!
This power supply unit is not intended for cascaded connection and should therefore never
•
be connected in series or parallel with other or identical power supply units/voltage
supplies.
The analogue remote control or remote programming via the USB interface is only intended
•
for individual operation of the power supply unit.
Do not use this power supply unit in conjunction with electric motors, magnets or inductive
•
loads, which generate overvoltages or retroactive voltage peaks due to induction (EMF) and
can damage the power supply unit.
3. Attention
Only connect the power supply unit to a professionally installed earthed socket outlet
•
This appliance is only authorised for use in dry rooms
•
Never operate this device in a damp or dusty environment, in direct sunlight or near
