General specifications apply for the temperature range 5°C to 40°C. Accuracy specifications
apply for the temperature range 18°C to 28°C after 1 hour warm-up with no load and calibration at
23°C. Typical specifications are determined by design and are not guaranteed.

0V to 30V/1mA to 3000mA; 0V to 30V/0.1mA to 500mA (each output);
0V to 30V/2mA to 6000mA; 0V to 30V/0.2mA to 1000mA (parallel mode).
By coarse and fine controls.
By single logarithmic control.
Independent, True parallel, Isolated Tracking & Isolated Ratio Tracking
modes via front panel rotary switch.
The voltage adjustment range can be controlled by digital setting of the
end-stop values of the coarse voltage control to any desired values.
The range for Vmax is 0.1V to 15V/30V/60V depending on model.
The range for Vmin is 0 to (Vmax – 0.1V).
Voltage and current settings can be locked by a single button press.
Lock accuracy is equal to meter accuracy (see Meter Specification)
Constant voltage or constant current with automatic cross-over.
CC indicator lit in constant current mode.
Electronic, non-isolating.
Preset voltage and current limit displayed when Output is off.
Output rise time with no load <15ms.
Universal 4mm safety binding posts on 19mm (0·75") spacing for Output;
screwless terminals for Sense.
<50µs to within 50mV of setting for a 90% load change.
Normal mode voltage: <0·4mVrms and 2mVp-p
Normal mode current: <0·2mArms; <40µArms on 500mA range.
Common mode current: <5µArms
For any load change, measured at the output terminals, using
remote sense:
Voltage <0·01% + 2mV.
Add typically 2·5mV for a 0·5V drop in the positive output lead.
Specification applies for sense lead resistance <0·5Ω.
Current typically 0·01% + 500µA.
Voltage <0·01% + 2mV for 10% line change.
Current <0·01% + 250µA for 10% line change.
Voltage: typically <(50ppm + 0·5mV)/°C
Current: typically <(100ppm + 1mA)/°C;
(100ppm + 0·1mA)/°C on 500mA range.
Output will withstand forward voltages of up to 20V above rated output
voltage. Reverse protection by diode clamp for currents up to 3A.
Output trips off for over-temperature.
