B&K Precision expands its offering of Triple Output DC Power Supplies

Yorba Linda, CA  May, 2009 – B&K Precision’s new model 1762 Triple Output DC Power Supply provides two variable voltage outputs of 0 to 60V/0 to 2A and one variable 4 to 6.5V/4A output. Each output is fully floating and outputs can be adjusted independently or connected in series or parallel to produce higher voltages or currents. Priced at only $725.00, the 1762 offers exceptional performance at a very reasonable price and is an ideal supply for use in Education, Service and Repair, and Manufacturing and applications that require multiple positive and negative voltages.

The power supply’s 4 digit display offers 10mV and 1mA resolution and the capability to set voltage and current values more accurately and precisely compared to 3 digit displays found on many comparable power supplies.  The voltage meter resolution is 0 to 99.99, the amperage meter resolution is 0 to 9.999, and both meters offer an accuracy of +0.5% readings + 9 digits.

The compact bench top unit (5.7” H x 10.5” D x 15” W), 145mm x 267mm x 381mm) weighs 21 lb. (9.5 kg) and can operate continuously at full load without overheating.  The 1762 also features low ripple and noise and over-current, over-voltage and reverse polarity protection. Front panel indicators and controls include independent and series/parallel tracking switches, an overload indicator light, course and fine voltage adjustment knobs, and adjustable current limit controls.

Pricing and Availability
Available for immediate delivery, the model 1762 power supply is priced at $ 725 and comes with a user manual, spare fuse, line cord, and B&K Precision’s outstanding two year warranty.
