Страница: 4 / 9

1. Introduction
The VoltPAQ is a linear power amplifier designed to run Quanser experiments. VoltPAQs come in three
different flavours: x1, x2 and x4. These suffixes stand for the number of channels. Therefore, the
VoltPAQx1 can power one load, the VoltPAQx2 can power two, and so on. This manual is specifically for
the VoltPAQx1.
Every VoltPAQx1 consists of the following components:
1. Power amplifier capable of supplying up to 24V @ 4.16A
2. Separate power supply deli/-12V @ 1.6 A to sensors and accessories
3. Analog sensor inputs
4. Optional e-stop
The VoltPAQs replaces the UPM line of power amplifiers and brings additional benefits to the table.
These benefits include:
Significantly lighter weight
Current sensing capability
Thermal shut-down
Over-heating/over-current fault indication output
E-stop
