Used TEKTRONIX TM502A #9100186 for sale

TEKTRONIX TM502A is an advanced power supply designed to provide reliable and precise power for the testing and maintenance of electronic systems. Ideal for industry-grade work, TM502A delivers DC power up to 750 W with precision current and voltage control. Its two main channels operate independently from each other, allowing adjustable load current from 0-30 A and adjustable load voltage from 0-50 V in each. This can be used to simulate real world operating conditions, or to enable power tests under various load requirements. The power supply can be set to either constant voltage or constant current output mode, with a wide 2.5 - 240 V and 0.1-30 A range. A built-in fuse-less protection system safely shuts down the output if the current limit value is exceeded, making the device safe to use even under extreme load conditions. TEKTRONIX TM502A also includes a range of features designed to optimize and improve the testing process. A flexible panel-mount display provides a clear indication of the current and voltage readings, as well as shows recorded data for up to 8 points, and offers the option of setting a program reference. Built-in real-time monitoring and data logging functionality enable precise measurements of current and voltage. The device can store up to 20 curves for comparisons or future reference, while the self-test function helps detect operational issues. The unit also has front-panel terminals for connecting external output connections, which are used in series or parallel configurations such as battery charging or capacitive loads. TM502A is designed for efficiency, with high voltage and high current connections arranged at right angles to keep wiring neat an tidy, while its full-sized alphanumeric keypad ensures user errors are avoided. To further increase safety, TEKTRONIX TM502A includes a special current-limiting design to prevent overloads and automatic thermal cooling for steady operation. The device also features a number of safety and functional output indicators, with an isolating power switch to minimize contact between load and supply for extra protection. The devices can be set up effortlessly via the integrated USB and RS232/485 interfaces, allowing users to remotely control and monitor the output from a personal PC. Finally, weighing approximately 55lbs, TEKTRONIX TMA502A also combines ease of use with a rugged and sustainable external design, making it a convenient and dependable power testing and maintenance solution.
