Product Focus: 63800 Series Programmable AC Electronic Load

Programmable AC Electronic LoadThe Chroma 63800 AC Loads can simulate load conditions under high crest factor and varying power factors with real time compensation even when the voltage waveform is distorted. This special feature provides real world simulation capability and prevents overstressing resulting in reliable and unbiased test results.

The 63800 AC Load’s state of the art design uses DSP technology to simulate non-linear rectified loads with its unique RLC operation mode. This mode improves stability by detecting the impedance of the UUT and dynamically adjusting the load’s control bandwidth to ensure system stability.

Comprehensive measurements allow users to monitor the output performance of the UUT. Additionally, voltage & current signals can be routed to an oscilloscope through analog outputs. The instrument’s GPIB/RS232 interface options provide remote control & monitor for system integration. Built-in digital outputs may also be used to control external relays for short circuit (crowbar) testing.

PV Inverter Test Solutions

Solar PanelA PV system is an energy system which directly converts energy from the sunlight into electricity. Once light hits the solar cell (array), electricity is generated and the DC is collected at a PV inverter.

PV inverter is a device that changes DC power to AC power and is also a key component in PV systems. There are two main types of PV systems, Grid Connected or Off Grid. Grid connected systems are usually installed on a building and provide electricity directly into the mains supply. Off grid systems are usually used where power is required but access to a mains supply is unavailable.

Chroma provides PV inverter testing solutions based on its twenty-five years of experience in power electronics testing.
