California Instruments 1251P AC Power Source 1250 VA

Description

Compact AC Power with European and US outlet sockets to connect the load, the 801P, 1001P and 1251P portable programmable AC power sources are ideal for a wide variety of applications.

Universal input allows use anywhere in the world to provide a convenient source of variable utility power for the testing and evaluation of domestic and commercial equipment. All common line voltage and frequency combinations are covered.

In addition, the frequency range covers 500 Hz, making these products ideal for commercial and defense avionics applications. The current measurement function eliminates the need for an external current shunt or transformer. Load current of the UUT (Unit Under Test) can be read directly on the large LCD display to 0.1 A. For additional protection, a current limit function can be set from zero to the maximum current available.

High peak current capability of more than three times the RMS current allows the P Series to drive non-linear loads.
