High performance at low cost

The EL series of DC bench power supplies has been designed to meet the need for a compact power supply of good performance at a reasonable price.
They provides medium levels of power (up to 125 watts) with fan-free cooling for silent operation.

Linear regulation

The EL series uses all linear regulation for the best possible performance. Excellent line and load regulation is matched by very low output noise and good transient response.

Simultaneous digital metering

The EL series incorporates separate digital voltage and current meters on each main output. The meters use bright 14mm (0.56") LED displays and have an update rate of 4 per second providing near instantaneous response. 
Simultaneous metering of voltage and current provides accurate information “at a glance” and avoids any possibility of misinterpretation. When an output switch is set to “off”, the current limit setting is displayed enabling conditions to be set before the load is connected.
Constant voltage or constant current

The main outputs can operate in constant voltage or constant current mode with automatic crossover and mode indication. Coarse and fine voltage controls are provided. The current control is logarithmic enabling low current levels to be set accurately.

Auxiliary low-voltage output

The EL302Tv incorporates a third output variable between 1.5V and 5.0V with a fixed current limit of 2A. The set voltage can checked using the digital displays.

Single, dual or triple outputs

The EL series includes six single output models plus one dual output and one triple output model.
The EL302D has two independent and isolated outputs each with a 0 to 30V, 0 to 2A capability and its own on-off switch. The outputs can be wired in either series or parallel to provide voltages up to 60 volts or currents up to 4 amps.
All outputs are intrinsically short circuit proof, and are protected against external voltages and reverse currents.
