Example Applications
Testing universal power supplies designed to work globally
The AC6801B AC source can be used to output the voltages and frequencies found around the world. The AC6801B has many built-in measurements, it can accurately measure power in Watts, VA, and phase angle. Inrush current can be measured consistently by setting the phase angle at which the voltage turns on.
Testing avionic electronics designed for 400 Hz
If you need single-phase 400 Hz power on the bench to check avionic electronics the AC6801B can supply clean power. The AC6801B offers a wide variety of input voltages and frequencies and can provide 500 VA to 4 kVA. It is currently used in development, manufacturing, and repair of avionic electronics.
Testing commercial light drivers and ballasts
LED drivers and fluorescent ballasts can be tested up to 310 VAC which ideal for testing electronics to 277 VAC ± 10%. In manufacturing, many ballasts can be verified in parallel with an AC source capable of 500 VA to 4 kVA. An AC6801B is used to output steady voltage allowing the ballast to be tested for efficiency and output regulation.
