Behlman BL1350B-1 High Power AC Source

The Behlman BL1350B-1 is a 1350 VA AC power supply designed for a variety of testing and power applications. It offers fully adjustable voltage and frequency, with a low output Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). The unit is built with robust design features for reliable operation, including excellent line and load regulation, and a unique overload protection system that provides voltage fold-back to maintain rated current without waveform distortion.
