Kikusui PAN16-50A

The Kikusui PAN16-50A is a 1000 W DC power supply engineered for R&D, quality control, and production environments. It combines a series regulator with phase control pre-regulation to deliver stable, low-noise output from 0–16 VDC at 0–50 A. The unit features automatic constant voltage/constant current crossover, adjustable overvoltage protection, remote sensing to ±0.6 V per side, and dual LED displays for real-time monitoring of output voltage and current.
