Model AP1 & AP3 Portanim Power Supplies


Search by OEM Part Number

  

  • Up to Six DC Voltages
  • Compact, Rugged, Lightweight
  • Field Proven Reliability
  • Package and Power Any NIMs
  • Install Self-Built Instruments
The AP-Series Portanims are attractive, compact, portable NIM compatible bins with self-contained power supplies. The Model AP-3 replaces both the Model AP-1 and AP-2H. The Model AP-3 can hold six singles or combinations of larger module sizes equivalent to six.

Portanims are aesthetically designed to give a finished and pleasing benchtop instrument appearance to plug-in modules. They can be used for BNC modular digital delay generators, trigger pulse amplifiers, pulse generators, programming interfaces and the NIM-style plug-in instruments of other manufacturers. The units provide significant savings in cost, space and weight over standard 12-width NIM bin/ power supplies when instrumentation setups consisting of only one or several modules are needed.

Power combinations of ±6 V, ±12 V and ±24 V are available in the Model AP-3. AC 117 V power for modules that may require it is also provided. The supplies conform to the specifications of AEC report TID-20893 (Rev. 3) except for maximum current ratings, since they hold fewer modules.

RIPPLE AND NOISE
Less than 3 mV peak-to-peak as observed on a 50 MHz bandwidth scope.

RECOVERY TIME AND STABILITY
Recovery: Less than 100 µs return with regulation limits for 10% to 100 % step-change in rated load.
Stability: After 1 hr. warmup ±0.5% for 6 months at constant load, line and ambient.

CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Fully protected against short circuits or overloads by foldback circuitry.
