DESCRIPTION
The CSA96 consists in a powerful and compact current switching amplifier designed to drive magnetic
actuators. It includes a power supply and as options, the possibility to connect an external power supply,
increasing output voltage and power capability, and a control board dedicated to advanced control of
actuators (position control, velocity control, etc.).
The external dimensions of the CSA96 are the following:
CSA96
Width : 140 mm
Length : 210 mm
Height : 59 mm
In case of optional controller, the height is 71mm.
The bottom plate is also a thermal interface used to dissipate the heat of the converter. The packaging also
features side openings for air circulation in order to enhance the heat dissipation.
