8600

The 8600 Series programmable DC electronic loads provide the performance of modular system DC electronic loads in a compact benchtop form factor. With fast transient operation speeds and high 16-bit measurement resolution, these standalone DC loads can be used for testing and evaluating a variety of DC sources such as DC power supplies, DC-DC converters, batteries, battery chargers, and photovoltaic arrays.

• CC/CV/CR/CW operating modes
• 16-bit voltage and current measurement system providing 1 mV / 0.1 mA resolution
• Transient mode up to 25 kHz in CC mode
• List mode function
• Store and recall up to 100 setups
• Adjustable slew rate in CC mode
• Flexible triggering options via front panel, external input, timer, or bus
• Built-in battery test function with voltage level, capacity level, and timer stop conditions
• Test modes to validate the OCP/OPP protection functions of a power supply
• CR-LED mode to simulate the loading behavior of typical LEDs
• Remote sense
• Analogue current control and monitoring
• Thermostatically controlled fan
• Standard USB, RS232, & GPIB interfaces supporting SCPI commands for remote control
• OVP/OCP/OPP/OTP including local and remote reverse voltage (LRV/RRV) protection
• Compact 19" half-rack form factor allows for side-by-side rack mounting of two units
