High Performance AC Power Sources from Powerstax now with CE Mark

25 January 2016 by Press Officer

“We have been selling and supporting Behlman’s AC power sources for several years but without CE Marking we have been unable to interest customers across Europe. This announcement changes everything”

BLC-12

Leading power supply specialist Powerstax announces the availability of two ranges of high performance AC power sources that are now CE Marked and therefore compliant with all relative European EMC and safety directives.

Manufactured by Behlman Electronics Inc, known for providing power sources designed specifically for military marine, air and mobile systems as well as for mission-critical industrial and commercial applications, the CE Marked BLC Series 19in rack mount AC Power Sources provide either single- or three-phase outputs in a range of power from 3kVA to 9kVA while the PF Series bench top AC Power Sources provide up to 1350VA.

According to Tim Worley, CEO at Powerstax, the addition of the CE Mark will greatly extend the market opportunities for these high quality, high performance power products. He said, “Behlman has an enviable reputation for AC power products that supply clean, regulated, highly efficient AC power for applications that include precision avionic test and power conversion, ATE, bulk power and motor generator replacement. With this development we now have approved products to take to our European customers”.

BLC Series AC Power Sources provide a clean sine wave output with excellent line and load regulation, high efficiency and low harmonic distortion. They have a rugged construction and offer users low cost per VA. A multi-pulse input transformer ensures low-input harmonic distortion and high power factor while unique protection circuitry provides over-temperature and short-circuit protection, plus voltage fold-back that maintains undistorted waveforms during overloads.

Voltage and frequency adjustment, line drop compensation, phase angle adjustment, external sync and output on/off with remote power connection, and now CE Mark are standard. Optional features include fixed voltage and frequency, output transformers, analogue remote control interface, and extended frequency range up to 1000 HZ.

The Behlman PF1350 and PF1351 are compact, PFC bench-top units that combine value for money with performance and flexibility.

The PF1350 has three fixed, selectable output frequencies; 50Hz, 60Hz and 400Hz, along with two voltage ranges; 0 to135VAC and 0 to 270VAC. These units offer up to 1350VA of AC power from local power inputs between 95VAC and 270VAC. In addition to their 100% power factor rating, they deliver a clean sine wave output with strong line and load regulation, plus high conversion efficiency levels (normally above 75%) and low total harmonic distortion (1.5% at full load). A unique overload protection system is incorporated, which folds back the voltage to maintain the rated output current without any waveform distortion occurring. A further protection mechanism latches the output open to safeguard the load from harm if short circuit conditions arise, while an internal temperature sensor is also incorporated to prevent heat damage.

The PF1351 provides the same operational performance as the PF1350 but with some additional functionality including a continuously variable output frequency range from 45Hz to 500Hz. A 45Hz to 1000Hz output frequency range version also available. These units can be controlled from their front panels or remotely using an optional RS232 or IEEE-488 interface.

Both the PF1350 and PF1351 power sources are supplied in compact 3.5in (88.9mm) profile enclosures that can be easily converted for rack mounting.
