Functional Description; Initial Operation - VOLTCRAFT PS-1440 Notice D'emploi

Functional description

The laboratory power supply works with high-performance and solid linear technology.
The DC output is electrically isolated and features a protective isolation towards the mains voltage. The
secondary DC connection is effected via two coloured high-peformance terminal screw sockets.
The current and voltage display is concise. Via light displays the current condition of the power supply is
indicated. Various protective mechansisms, e.g. overload protection, current limitation, overheating pro-
tection, etc. are built in for secure and reliable operation.
The cooling of the power supply is provided via integrated ventilators. Therefore, ensure sufficient air cir-
culation.
The power supply can limit the output voltage nad output current stagelessly.

Initial operation

The laboratory power supply is not a charger. To charge batteries, use suitable
chargers with a charging current cut-off.
During a longer period of operation under nominal load, the surface of the hous-
ing will heat up greatly.
Warning! Very hot! Danger of burns! Therefore, make sure that there is adequate
ventilation of the power unit and never operate it partly or fully covered to avoid
any damage.
When connecting a consumer ensure that it is not connected when switched on.
A switched on consumer can result in sparks when connecting to the output ter-
minals of the supply device which in turn can damage the connection sockets or
the connected
lines and/or their terminals.
If your power supply is not required, disconnect it from the mains.
