Agilent/Keysight E36154A

The Keysight E36154A is an 800 W autoranging DC power supply delivering up to 30 V at 80 A for demanding R&D, design validation, reliability, and quality testing applications. This single-output benchtop unit maximizes voltage-current combinations within its 800 W power envelope and handles peak transients up to 2400 W for short bursts—critical for devices with high-capacitance loads or electromechanical components.
