SAC Output Made Easy
Wide-range, programable output voltage up to 310 Vrms with a user
friendly interface designed for maximum practicality and convenience.
The PCR-MA AC power supply series is a PWM inverter type(switching) power supply that builds on the success of ourconventional model, the PCR-M. Maximum output voltage has
been increased to 310 Vrms AC while maintaining a compact,
portable design. The digital interface now includes LAN (LXI)
and USB as standard, with GPIB as a option for easy integration
into any test system. The LXI compliant LAN interface allows theoperator to easily monitor and control the instrument via virtualinterface wherever they are. Various features including a remotesensing function have been introduced to ensure precise voltage
and current measurements. Other features including DC mode,
memory functions, and various protections make the PCR-MA
the most accessible AC power supply on the market.

Selectable output modes
In addition to "AC mode" and "DC mode", an AC+DC external
analog inter face board option (E X08- PCR- MA) allows for
output control via "EXT-AC mode" and "EXT-DC mode" throughexternal analog signals.

[AC mode]
The PCR-MA output voltage range can be set in two ranges (0-155 V,
0-310 V) with a programmable frequency up to 500 Hz in order to comply
with nominal, single phase voltage anywhere in the world.
This is especially useful for power supply systems found in aircraft, boats,
and actuators.

THE PCR-MA is capable of measuring the voltage, current andpower of AC and DC output. It can also display the true RMS andaverage (DC) values of the output voltage as well as the true RMS,
peak, and average (DC) values for the output current. When usedwith digital inter face, the PCR-MA can also measure apparent
power (VA), reactive power (VAR), power factor (PF), and peak holdcurrent.

LAN
(LXI)

Sensing function (ON/OFF)The new remote sensing feature compensates for voltage drops
along long load wires to ensure maximum accuracy.

Output-on phase angle
The output-on phase angle can be set in AC mode.
The output-off phase angle is turned off at the zero-crossing phase.

Memory function
The PCR-MA can store up to three sets of output voltage, frequency,
and limit value setting via front panel. Additionally, when using
communication commands, the internal memory can store up to 11
settings.
