Exploring Programmable AC Power Source

Programmable AC Power Source

Chroma 6400

Uses state of the art PWM technology to deliver pure, instrument grade AC power at a very low cost never achieved before

Power Rating

375VA~2000VA

Voltage Range

150V/300V/Auto

Frequency

45~1000Hz

The Chroma 6400 series Programmable AC Power Source uses state of the art PWM technology to deliver pure, instrument grade AC power at a very low cost never achieved before. The 6400 AC power source offers maximum rated power for any output voltage from 0 to 300VAC, at any frequency from 45 to 1K Hz. It is not only suitable for commercial applications (47-63Hz), but also for avionics, marine, military applications at 400Hz.

More Output Power

The 6400 Series AC Power Source supplies very clean output with typical output distortion less than 0.3% THD. The output is transformer isolated (6404 & 6408) providing an exceptionally low total harmonic distortion without sacrificing efficiency. Remote sense connections are provided for superb output regulation to compensate for load line losses while keeping the output at a precise level regardless of output load condition.

Advanced DSP Circuitry

The 6400 Series incorporates input power factor correction circuitry resulting in high efficiency and lower input line current. The 6400 Series employs advanced DSP circuitry (6404 & 6408) or 16-bit measurement circuit to provide precise high-speed measurement of the output for true RMS voltage, true RMS current, true power, frequency, power factor, and current crest factor. These output measurements can be displayed on the large, easy to read, front panel readout.

Wide Output Voltage

The wide output voltage range of 0-300 VAC (0-500VAC for Model 6460) can be selected for either 0-150 VAC or 0-300 VAC, or set to auto-ranging output voltage. The 45-1000 Hz output frequency range provides excellent flexibility in a small compact unit with a great performance / cost ratio. The programmable current limit adds to the flexibility while reducing current flow potential for non-destructive testing easily.

High Accuracy Measurement

Temperature Controlled
Fan Speed

Self-Test at Power-On

Optional GPIB, RS-232, and Analog Programming Interface

With the small 5.25 inches height packaged (6404 & 6408), and lightweight, the model 6400 is perfectly suitable for bench top applications where space is at a premium. The easy to use and easy to read front panel control/readout system makes setup and quick measurements simple. The front panel receptacles can be used for most line cord plugs without adapters. Rear panel terminals are also provided for hard-wired connections.
