PS 9000 T Series
4.3.3.1 Set values
► How to calibrate the voltage
1.
Connect a multimeter to the DC output. Connect a load and set its cur-
rent to approx. 5% of the nominal current of the power supply, in this
example ~3 A, and 0 V (if the load is electronic).
2.
While the DC output is switched off enter MENU, then tap on „ Settings “,
then on “ Page 2 ” and there on “ Calibrate device ”.
3.
In the next screen select Voltage calibration , then Calibrate output
val. and NEXT . The power supply will switch the DC output on, set a
certain output voltage and show the measured value as U-mon .
4.
The next screen requests you to enter the measured output voltage from the multimeter at
Measured
value=
. Enter it using the keypad, that appears when tapping the value. Assure yourself the value is correct
and submit with
ENTER
.
5.
Repeat step 4. for the next three steps (total of four steps).
► How to calibrate the current
1.
Set the load to approx. 102% nominal current of the PS device. For the sample model with 60 A this would
be 61.2 A, rounded to 61 A.
2.
While the DC output is switched off enter MENU, then tap on „
Settings
“, then on “
Page 2
” and there on
“
Calibrate device
”.
3.
In the next screen select Current calibration , then Calibrate output val. and NEXT . The device will switch
the DC output on, set a certain current limit while loaded and show the measured output current as I-mon .
4.
The next screen requests you to enter the output current Measured value= measured with the shunt. Enter
it using the keypad, assure yourself the value is correct and submit with ENTER .
5.
Repeat step 4. for the next three steps (total of four steps).
In case you are generally using the remote sensing feature, it is recommended to also readjust this parameter
for best results. The procedure is identical to the calibration of voltage, except for it requires to have the sensing
connector (Sense) on the rear to be plugged and connected with correct polarity to the DC output of the PS.
► How to calibrate the remote sensing voltage
1.
Connect a load and set its current to approx. 5% of the nominal current of the power supply, in this example
~3 A, and 0 V (if the load is electronic). Connect the remote sensing input (Sense) to the DC terminal of the
load with correct polarity and connect a multimeter there in parallel.
2.
While the DC output is switched off enter MENU, then tap on „ Settings “, then on “ Page 2 ” and there on
“ Calibrate device ”.
3.
IIn the next screen select Sense volt. calibration , then Calibrate output val. and NEXT. The power supply
will switch the DC output on, set a certain output voltage and show the measured value as U-mon .
4.
The next screen requests you to enter the measured sensing voltage Measured data= from the multimeter.
Enter it using the keypad, that appears when tapping the value. Assure yourself the value is correct and
submit with ENTER .
5.
Repeat step 4. for the next three steps (total of four steps).
4.3.3.2 Actual values
The actual values of output voltage (with and without remote sensing) and output current are calibrated almost the
same way as the set values, but here you don’t need to enter anything, just confirm the displayed values. Please
proceed the above steps and instead of “ Calibrate output val. ” select “ Calibrate actual val. ” in the submenus.
After the device shows the measured value on display, wait at least 2 seconds for the value to settle and then tap
NEXT until you are through all steps.
