SORENSEN IB-1-800-160-200 High Performance Regenerative DC Power System
The Sorensen i-BEAM IB-1-800-160-200 High Performance Regenerative DC Power System is engineered for unmatched versatility and reliability in high-power testing scenarios. With a remarkable power level of 160 kW, this system supports full DC source and sink capabilities, making it an essential tool for industries like automotive, energy storage, industrial, and aerospace. It excels in a variety of applications, ensuring you are equipped to handle the complexities of today’s high power electronics.
At the heart of the IB-1-800-160-200 is its advanced color TFT touchscreen interface, designed for intuitive control over system settings. Users can easily adjust and monitor key parameters such as voltage, current, power, and internal resistance directly from the screen. The system's programmable voltage and current ramps allow for customized testing procedures, and the ability to save these configurations enhances operational efficiency for repeated use.
To prioritize safety, the IB-1-800-160-200 features under-voltage limit settings, which effectively prevent deep discharge scenarios and extend the life of battery packs. Additionally, comprehensive event logging keeps a detailed history of actions, warnings, and faults, providing invaluable insights for diagnostic evaluation.
This cutting-edge power system is versatile enough to address test requirements throughout the product lifecycle. Applications include battery simulation, battery testing (charge/discharge), DC motor testing, electric powertrain testing, fuel cell load testing, solar panel testing, and high power device testing such as fuses, contactors, and circuit breakers.
The single-channel configuration of the IB-1-800-160-200 enables bidirectional power flow, paired with a Power Distribution Unit (PDU) that offers a seamless remote connection between the i-BEAM and devices under test (DUT) within a testing environment. The PDU is strategically designed in a freestanding cabinet that includes essential controls for shutdown and reset, a voltmeter for instant power readings, a status light tower for real-time monitoring, and a door contact safety feature that halts operation upon cabinet door access.
