DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT
1.1 PURPOSE AND CAPABILITIES
The Sorensen DHP Series power supplies are general purpose power supplies designed
specifically for laboratory test and systems applications requiring variable DC sources
with good ripple and regulation characteristics. The DHP power supplies include three
separate series: the 2U High, the 3U High and the 6U High. The power supplies of each
series are constant current/constant voltage supplies with an automatic crossover
feature. The 2U High Series models provide up to 3000 watts, the 3U High models up to
15 kilowatts, and the 6U High models up to 30 kilowatts, each over a wide range of
voltage and current levels.
1.2 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The physical, electrical, and environmental characteristics for the 2U, 3U and 6U High
Series are listed in Tables 1-1 through 1-3.
