It features ultra-low noise, dynamic regulation adjustment, and full remote control via USB or Ethernet, making it ideal for high-load, long-distance applications.
The PL512 system combines high channel density and advanced control capabilities in a modular 19″ rack-mounted package.
Its plug-in power box allows tool-less replacement and simple maintenance. Each of the 12 outputs is fully floating and programmable in terms of voltage, current, and operational behavior.
Channels can be paralleled in Master-Slave mode for current boosting, while safety and shutdown logic is managed by a robust internal processor.
Designed for quiet operation and maximum reliability, the PL512 features active PFC, closed-loop regulation, and dynamic behavior adaptation based on cable length.
Remote sense feedback, integrated temperature sensing, and optional digital interlock or system reset features ensure precise and secure control under all conditions.
Optional water cooling maintains the same form factor as the air-cooled variant for easy integration.
