EA-PSBE 10060-510 3U 15kW Programmable Bidirectional DC Power Supply

The EA-PSBE 10060-510 3U is a high-performance 15kW bidirectional DC power supply from the EA Elektro Automatik PSBE 10000 Series. Housed in a 3U form factor, this two-quadrant device combines the functions of a programmable DC power supply and a regenerative electronic load. It delivers a wide operating range of 0-60V output voltage and 0-510A output current, leveraging autoranging technology to provide full 15000W output power across a broad spectrum of voltage and current combinations. With an impressive efficiency of up to 94.5%, the unit operates as an energy recovery solution, feeding sink power back into the grid to significantly reduce energy costs and minimize heat generation, thereby lowering air conditioning requirements. The device features a 5" TFT touch display, digital control with 16-bit ADCs/DACs, and precise regulation modes (CV, CC, CP, CR). Built-in interfaces include USB, Ethernet, a galvanically isolated analog interface (0-5 V/0-10 V switchable), USB host, Master-Slave-Bus, and Share-Bus. It accepts a wide three-phase AC input of 208-480 V ±10% with active PFC (typical 0.99). Up to 64 units of the same voltage class can be paralleled via the Master-Slave-Bus to form high-power automated test systems up to 960kW. Typical applications include battery test equipment, battery simulation, fuel cell test systems, on-board charger testing (OBC), EOL test (End of Line), and State of Health check (SOH) for battery recycling applications.
