About AC to AC Voltage Transformers

For single-phase equipment, use this formula to find power output: VA = Volts × Amps

For three-phase equipment, use this formula to find power output: VA = Volts × Amps × 1.73

Permanently install these transformers in panels. Turn the dial to adjust the voltage you need within a given range. Also known as variacs, they are often used in laboratories to vary power, heat, speed, or force. When wired for constant voltage, transformers filter out voltage spikes and electrical noise.

Ultra-Low-Noise Benchtop Power Supplies

Change AC voltage to DC voltage to power extremely sensitive audio, measuring, and testing devices while keeping electronic interference—often called output or ripple noise—from passing on to the device. The lower the output noise value, the less interference the power supplies will create. Although they create less noise than other power supplies, these power supplies are larger, heavier, and give off more heat.

Power supplies with an output voltage selector switch let you toggle between two voltage and current output ranges.

View the output on a digital or analog display. Digital displays are often easier to read than analog displays, so you can quickly see if you need to make adjustments. Analog displays are better than digital displays for monitoring fast output changes, such as dips and spikes.

If you exceed the maximum load or current, all of these power supplies will shut down to protect both the power supply and the connected device. Those with overvoltage or over temperature protection will shut down if you exceed the maximum voltage or temperature.

UL and C-UL listed power supplies meet U.S. and Canadian safety standards.

Benchtop Power Supplies

Convert AC voltage into the DC voltages needed to test, design, and prototype a wide variety of electrical circuits and equipment. These power supplies let you adjust the output to the exact voltage needed to power your equipment. You can also set limits on the maximum current to protect your equipment from damage. Keep an eye on the voltage and current drawn by your connected components with the digital display.

Since these use switching regulation, they produce the stated voltage despite fluctuations in your input power and the power being drawn by your system, and won’t become too hot.

When these power supplies convert AC voltage to DC voltage, some noise from the AC voltage will carry into the output. While this won't affect most applications, this noise can interfere with other signals in extremely sensitive applications. The lower the output noise, the less interference it creates.

These power supplies are CE Marked, which means they meet European Union safety standards. If your power supply exceeds the maximum current, voltage, or load, they’ll shut down to protect both the power supply and the connected equipment. Some also protect against excessive temperatures.

Power supplies with output voltage selector switch let you choose either an adjustable output, which you control with a dial, or an output fixed at 13.8V DC.

Connect the banana plugs on your equipment to the socket output connections. Power supplies with USB-A output connections can also charge phones and other devices with USB-A ports. You can use more than one output at the same time, but you can’t adjust them independently—all outputs are set to the voltage you select.

Programmable Benchtop Power Supplies

Use your computer to remotely control these power supplies that convert AC voltage to DC voltage for powering electronics from simple prototypes to advanced testing equipment. All of these power supplies include a USB cable and Windows-compatible software to control, monitor, and record the voltage, current, and power outputs of your device. You can also create programs with up to 20 steps that change voltage and current outputs at set times. A selector switch lets you quickly choose up to three defined settings for voltage and current outputs. The power supplies have an auxiliary output connection, but it will take on the same settings as the primary outputs. View the outputs on their digital display.

These power supplies use switching regulation, which means they produce the stated voltage despite fluctuations in your input power and the power being drawn by your system, and they won’t become too hot. If you exceed the maximum voltage, current, load, or temperature, the power supplies will shut down to protect both the power supply and the connected device.

Power supplies with remote voltage sensing check for any drops in the voltage as they send power to a device. If the voltage dips, they can compensate with extra power, so connected devices always receive the correct voltage.

Maximum output noise is also known as ripple noise. When power supplies convert AC voltage to DC voltage, some noise from the AC voltage will carry into the output. While this noise won't affect most applications, it can interfere with other signals in extremely sensitive audio, measuring, and testing equipment. The lower the output noise, the less interference it creates.

Rack-Mount Power Supplies

With Digital Display

With Analog Display

Mount these power supplies into standard 19”-wide electronics racks, which can hold multiple electronic devices and keep your benchtop clear. These power supplies change AC voltage to DC voltage to power highly sensitive audio, measuring, and testing devices while keeping electronic interference—known as output or ripple noise—from passing on to the device. The lower the output noise value, the less interference the power supplies will create.

Designed with linear voltage regulation, these power supplies produce the same voltage regardless of changes in the input voltage or the amount of current being drawn. They are also known as linear power supplies. As they send power to a device, they use remote voltage sensing to check for any drops in the voltage. If the voltage dips, they can compensate with extra power, so connected devices always receive the correct voltage.

If you exceed the maximum current or load, these power supplies will shut down to protect both the power supply and the connected device.
