FAQ
Q: Can the PSW 30-36 operate at voltages higher than 30V?
A: Yes. The PSW Series supports multiple voltage ranges; this model spans from 30V up to 800V in its multi-range configurations, with corresponding current and power adjustments within the 360W envelope.
Q: What is CV/CC priority mode and why does it matter?
A: CV/CC priority lets the user preselect whether constant-voltage or constant-current takes precedence at power-on, preventing high inrush currents from damaging capacitive or current-sensitive loads during startup.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does CV/CC priority mode mean for power supply operation?
CV (constant voltage) priority mode maintains stable voltage until current limit is reached, then switches to constant current, protecting devices from over-current while maintaining output stability.
Why is adjustable slew rate useful in power supply testing?
Adjustable slew rate controls how quickly output voltage changes, allowing simulation of gradual power-up conditions and preventing damage to devices sensitive to rapid voltage changes.
What applications benefit from a 0-30V, 36A single-output supply?
Battery testing, LED lighting validation, motor driver testing, high-current device development, and power conversion circuit validation all benefit from moderate to high current availability.
How does 360W power rating compare to bench-top alternatives?
360W provides substantial power for testing mid-to-high current devices; sufficient for most battery, LED, and component testing without requiring multiple supplies or external amplification.
Which testing scenarios require multi-range capability in power supplies?
Different devices operate at different voltages; having voltage and current ranges allows a single supply to test everything from 1.5V sensors to 30V industrial loads without changing equipment.
What types of products are validated using 360W DC power supplies?
Battery chargers, LED drivers, motor controllers, power conversion circuits, and industrial control systems all rely on DC power supplies for prototype testing and production validation.
