GENERAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ASX-Series Power Source is high-performance AC power conversion equipment. This
series of equipment features models with power ratings from 1.5 kVA to 12.0 kVA. All systems
are designed to fit into a standard 19 inch instrument rack. The power sources are suitable for
use as frequency converters as well as sophisticated AC test power systems.
ASX power sources are typically configured with an interchangeable controller. Controller
options range from basic manual control (UPC1M and 3M) to sophisticated programmable
controllers (UPC1, UPC3, UPC12 or UPC32). The manual controller allows the user to adjust
voltage and frequency. The programmable controller provides all of the manual control
capability, plus a wide variety of control features including program storage, waveform editing,
and remote interface.
Unique to the Models 120ASX and 320ASX is the ability to operate at 150
l-n
/ 300V
l-l
. Unique to
the model 3120ASX is the ability to provide full power in either 1, 2, or 3 phase mode of
operation. The nominal (rated) output voltage range for the ASX-Series is 0-125
l-n
/ 250V
l-l.
Available current at specific voltages, as well as maximum output voltage varies by model. Refer
to section 2.1.2 for further details
Optional output transformers are available to provide higher output voltage ranges. Standard
ratios up to 2.5:1 (312/541V) as well as custom ratios are available.
