Description
The B&K Precision model 1737 is a general purpose dual range DC power source.
This power supply can output more voltage at a lower current or more current at
a lower voltage. The 1737 provides 0-60 V DC output, adjustable with both
coarse and fine voltage controls for precise setting. The current output for the
1737 is 0-3 A for the 0-30 V range, and 0-2 A for the 30-60 V range, adjustable
with both coarse and fine current controls.
The 1737 exhibits excellent regulation and low ripple characteristics. Its
mechanical configuration conserves bench space and allows for easy portability.
Additionally, the power supply can be operated locally from the front panel or
remotely through the RS-232 interface.
This power supply is well suited for a wide variety of electrical and electronics
applications in service shops, engineering labs, production facilities, school
laboratories, and home use.
