Xantrex Introduces True Triple Output Digital Bench Top Power Supply
SAN DIEGO, Calif., - April 16, 2008 - Xantrex Technology Inc. (TSX:XTX) announces the launch of the 222 watt (W) linear XBT programmable power supplies for laboratory and low power automated test equipment (ATE) applications.
The new XBT Series provides higher power with two 32 volt (V) 3 amp (A) outputs plus one 15V/5A/30W output, offering much more flexibility than typically found with most bench top supplies. It is easy to use for both manual operation and computer control. With direct keypad entry and digital encoder knob control, users can pick their preferred method of control depending on the application or user preference. For computer control, USB and RS-232 are standard while IEEE488.2/GPIB and Ethernet are optional.
"We have spent a lot of time listening to customers and studying how power supplies are used. This research has resulted in a power supply which appeals to the many varied uses of a bench supply," said Joe Budano, Xantrex President & General Manager, Programmable Power. "The small form factor and computer interfaces also make it easy for our ATE users to integrate into a system."
The XBT is available now from Xantrex and its network of manufacturers' representatives and distributors.
