PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Elgar SL and B Series power sources are
wide range, solid-state linear amplifiers
that convert the incoming line to low
distortion, stable sine wave power.
These solid-state frequency changers are
benchtop/19" rackmount units that can be
driven over their full voltage and frequency
ranges by fixed, variable or programmable
plug-in oscillators.
The SL and B’s offer overload and over-
temperature protection, can operate
continuously at up to 150% rated capacity,
and provide up to three output voltage ranges.
FEATURES AND
BENEFITS
CONTINUOUS DUTY AT
150% RATED CAPACITY
Due to their conservative design, the
SL Series provides continuous duty at 150%
rated capacity into a linear resistive load,
while the B Series models are rated at 100%.
LOW HARMONIC DISTORTION
The SL and B Series power sources
provide low harmonic distortion normally
below 0.3% midband, 0.6% over the full
frequency range.
WIDE FREQUENCY RANGE
Elgar AC power sources offer frequencies
from 45 Hz to 5 kHz at full rated power.
(optionally expandable to 10 kHz)
CONFIGURABLE
SL and B Series components can be used
as building blocks for creating a full
range of single, dual and three-phase AC
power sources.
OUTPUT POWER VOLT AMPERE
RATING
Single phase
120 VA to 18 kVA
Dual phase 240 VA to 18 kVA
Three phase 150 VA to 36 kVA
WARRANTY
Elgar offers a two year warranty on the SL
and B Series power supplies.
EMC/SAFETY (SLE Models Only)
The 1001 SLE and 1751 SLE have
been designed to meet the
requirements for the CE mark.
OPTIONS
PROGRAMMABLE VIA IEEE-448 GPIB
Elgar’s SL and B Series, when used with a
Plug-In Programmer, provide full GPIB
control of voltage, frequency, phase angle,
voltage dropouts and test readback of
output parameters.
RANGE CHANGE RELAYS
An optional internal range change relay
switches between 130 VAC and 260 VAC
ranges under GPIB control or front panel
local control when used with a PIP or a
modified oscillator.
TEST OPTION/BUILT-IN
TEST EQUIPMENT (BITE)
This feature is available when used with
an Elgar PIP9012A, PIP9023 or PIP704 that
also has the test option. Depending on the
PIP, the RMS voltage, RMS current,
frequency, phase angle and true power in
watts can be read from the front panel or
over the GPIB.
PROGRAMMABLE CURRENT LIMIT
When equipped with the test option (Built-
in Test Equipment/BITE), a current limit may
be programmed via the GPIB or from the
front panel which, if exceeded, will cause
system shutdown and status reporting.
REMOTE SENSE
This feature provides full programming
accuracy without sacrificing response time
and is available with Elgar Plug-In
Programmers and other selected oscillators
for 0.015% regulation.
DISCONNECT RELAY
The optional internal output relay connects
the load to the output of the power source
under GPIB control or from the front panel
keypad with a Plug-In Programmer.
APPLICATIONS
The linear design of the SL and B Series
provides a highly regulated, clean sine
wave, making these units ideal for linear
loads in general purpose test applications
as well as for Automatic Test Equipment
systems and avionics testing.
■ Power fault simulation when used
with an Elgar Plug-In Programmer
