Figure 1-3 ASA Series Extended Wide Range Channels Voltage Vs Current
Characteristics
The voltage and current characteristics of the 600 W, 200 V, 17 A is given in Figure 1-5.
For any given voltage, the maximum supported current is described. There are three
distinct regions, the red line shows the maximum supported current for a given model
green line shows the maximum full-scale voltage for the model and the blue curved
section shows the models power limit.
Determination of the available voltage or current under your conditions can be calculated
readily. As an example, we will use the 600 W, 200 V, 17 A output channel. This channel
can provide up to 17 A from 0 to 35.2 V and maximum of 3 A from 0 to 200 V. In the
power limit portion of the curve if you need to determine how much current you can
obtain at given voltage, you divide the models power limit by the desired output voltage.
For example, at 100 V in this model you can obtain maximum current of 6 A (600 W/ 100
V = 6 A).
Figure 1-5 to Figure 1-7 provides with the Voltage
– Current characteristics for 200 V-17
A, 60 V-42 A, 80 V- 22 A, 400 V
– 6 A Models, respectively.
