Description

The AFX Series consists of a range of High Power Switching AC, DC and AC+DC capable Power Sources covering a power range from 9 kVA to 60 kVA. All AFX models offer single, split and three phase output configurations. The AFX is a state-of-the-art design using the latest digital power conversion technologies. Power density is among the highest in the industry allowing 15 kVA/kW of power in only 4U (7″) of rack space. Pacific Power AFX Series

Great emphasis has been placed on energy efficiency, ease of installation, and maximum power per cubic inch of rack space. Control and operational features provide a high degree of application versatility and ease of use for the test engineer. Applications range from simple, manually controlled frequency conversion to harmonic immunity testing and sophisticated transient simulation. Pacific Power AFX Series

Power conversion within the AFX Series is achieved by digitally controlled, high frequency pulse width modulation, resulting in cool, quiet and efficient operation.

Pacific Power AFX Series

 NOTE

  1. All AFX models have a single voltage range with constant power profile. This eliminates the need for switching between a high and a low voltage range. If desired, a low voltage range can be simulated. Pacific Power AFX Series
  2. Maximum current ratings shown are available at 120Vrms in AC mode and 170Vdc in DC mode. Voltage and Current follow constant power profile so higher current at lower voltage and higher current at lower voltage is available.
  3. Three phase input: -2 Models: 208 to 240 VAC ±10% input range. -4 Models: 380 to 480 VAC ± 10% input range. All models has active power factor corrected AC inputs.
  4. Cabinet weights are approximate and vary with certain available cabinet configuration options.

SPECIAL AFX SERIES OPERATING FEATURES 

Continuous Self Calibration
Provides for exceptional accuracy of the AC and DC output Voltage. When enabled, accuracy improves to ±0.02% referenced to the power source internal voltmeter.
Single Voltage Range with Constant Power Operation
More output current available at lower voltage setting without having to change range.
Waveform Library

Up to 16 different waveforms can be stored in the waveform library for execution as part of a steady state program or for substitution in any output phase as part of a transient test program. Memory locations #1 through #10 are a non-editable waveforms. Locations #11-#16 are editable and can be substituted in any output phase. An unlimited number of waveforms may be stored on the computer for those using a programmable UPC.

Time Based Transients
Create and execute transients that occur over a specified time segment to modify the output waveform, voltage, and frequency for any or all phases. An output trigger is provided for synchronizing external test equipment to the actual transient event.

Cycle Based Transients
Create and execute transients that substitute a waveform in any or all phases for 1 to 100 cycles. The waveform being substituted can be selected and/or modified from the waveform library.

APPLICATIONS

AC or DC Test Power
The AFX Series Power Source is equipped with several powerful Digital Signal Processors to create a fully integrated test system. It supplies a variety of power conditions to the device under test and meters all output performance parameters.
AD+DC Test Power

Special test requirements such the application of a DC offset on an AC line or AC ripple on a DC supply output are supported by selecting the AC+DC Mode of operation.

Frequency/Voltage Conversion
The AFX Series is an excellent source of stable AC voltage over the frequency range of 15 to 1,200 Hz. The output frequency is accurate to 0.01%.

Phase Conversion
With the ability to provide singe, split and three-phase outputs, the AFX Series is the perfect choice to provide 1 Phase to 2 or 3 Phase or 3 Phase to 1 Phase conversion.

 CONTROLLER

The AFX Series controller offers both manual and full programmable control. Front panel operation is menu driven using a combination of direct access menu keys to the left of the large color display and 5 soft keys located on the right of the display. The rotary knob can be used to scroll through menu fields and doubles as an ENTER key. The same knob allows for slewing of output parameters. A full decimal keypad is provided as well for direct parameter entry. The AFX can also be operated remotely from one of its included remote interfaces. Operation from a web browser via LAN or USB is also supported through the embedded web server of the AFX. Pacific Power AFX Series
