Introducing AC programmable power

TDK Corporation (TSE 6762) announces the introduction of the TDK-Lambda brand GENESYS AC (GAC) and GENESYS AC PRO (GAC-PRO) series of 2kVA and 3kVA rated programmable AC power sources.

Introducing AC programmable power

These latest products represent a significant expansion in test and measurement capability to the current GENESYS series of 750W to 90kW programmable DC power supplies. With a 1U chassis height, the GAC and GAC-PRO provide the highest power density for a fully featured programmable AC power source.

The GENESYS AC PRO models (GAC-PRO) offer a higher level of DC functionality with the ability to allow AC, DC, or combined AC+DC operation. The models allow full-rated power and current in DC modes, and advanced functions such as waveform generation and harmonics analysis as standard.

The GENESYS AC PRO also includes real-time analogue control functionality necessary for more complex test scenarios, such as hardware in the loop (HIL). Other applications for the GENESYS AC PRO include automated test equipment, avionics airborne equipment, aircraft electrical power, defence (RTCA, Boeing, Airbus Standards), automotive, e-mobility, and power source testing.

TDK-Lambda's advanced parallel system provides characteristics comparable with that of a single power supply. 2kVA and 3kVA units may be user-combined for additional power and to provide multiple phase outputs. The front panel controls can be made through the use of a capacitive touch display, providing increased robustness over mechanical switches. Multiple languages are catered for, including, Chinese, English, French, German, Japanese, Korean and Spanish.

As standard, LAN, USB, RS232, RS485, and Analogue Programming / Monitoring are provided, with optional IEEE / GPIB. The included remote GUI software allows the user full control, sequence programming, plus the option to use pre-programmed test standards for common IEC, aerospace, and marine tests. These standards will dramatically reduce test time, consistency, and labour cost compared to traditional manual set-ups.

Dimensions of the GAC02 and GAC03 are 423mm wide, 544.5mm deep, and 43.6mm high, and the weight is less than 8kg. The five-year warranty series is safety-certified to IEC/EN/UL 61010-1 with CE and UKCA marking to the Low Voltage, EMC, and RoHS Directives. The models also comply with IEC/EN 61204-3 for conducted and radiated EMI (Class A) and EMC immunity.

In the next few months, TDK-Lambda will expand the GENESYS AC line with additional power levels of 6/9kVA.
