Model 2001RP
Compact AC Power
Offering simple rotary front panel
controls, the 2001RP programmable AC power source is ideally
suited for a wide range of applications.
Selectable input voltage ranges
allow this product to be used anywhere in the world to provide a convenient source of variable utility
power for the testing and evaluation of domestic and commercial
equipment. All common line voltage
and frequency combinations are
covered.
In addition, the frequency range
extends to 5000 Hz, making these
products ideal for commercial and
defense avionics applications.
Accurate measurement functions
are available as an option to eliminate the need for external test
equipment in many test setups.
Voltage, current, peak current,
power, and power factor can be
read directly on the large LCD display or over the bus. Overload protection is provided standard using
a programmable current limit function
Easy To Use Controls
Front panel digital rotary encoders are used to set voltage and frequency. These controls have an
analog feel, with the precision and
reliability of digital circuits. Settings
and measurements are read directly on the large, high contrast
LCD displays.
Dual output voltage ranges of 150
Vrms L-N and 300 Vrms L-N, provide maximum current at the required voltage.
The output frequency can be varied from 16 Hz up to 5000 Hz to
cover commercial, avionics and
defense power applications.
Product Development
The precise voltage regulation
and wide frequency range of the
2001RP, combined with its easy to
use front panel, make it a great general purpose Lab AC source. Built
in measurements may be added
(option -OP1) to extend the units
usefulness for design applications
of AC powered products.
Quality Control
For product quality test applications, the 2001RP can be used to
simulate line conditions found anywhere in the world. This ensures
products destined for export will operate as designed.
Avionics Applications
As an affordable and reliable
source of 400 Hz AC power, the
2001RP is well suited for commercial and defense avionics applications. A special Avionics version
(-AV option) is available which offers reduced weight and increased
output current at 115 V
RMS
.
Functional Design
The small form factor and low
weight of the 2001RP make it convenient to use in a variety of locations. Removable rubber feet protect the work surface if the unit is
used in a bench top mode. The 5.25
inch height saves valuable rack
space when used in a rack and
stack system.
2001RP - For Easy Transient Programming
Drop transient causes output voltage to drop
to zero for a user specified period
Voltage Surge transient causes output voltage
to surge.
Extensive Transient Control
With the addition of the remote control interface option, RP Series
units are capable of producing transients with a high degree of user
programmability. Setting up transient programs is facilitated by a Windows™ Graphical User Interface program that allows amplitude, frequency and event duration to be programmed from a PC. Time resolution is 1 ms (0.001 sec) with a minimum time interval ranging from 1 to
40 ms, depending on the transient type. Maximum transient time intervals are 9999 seconds. Transient programming allows the effects of
common line disturbances such as voltage surges, sags, drop-outs and
frequency fluctuations on the unit under test to be evaluated.

Precision Measurements
For bench or automated test equipment (ATE) applications, the
2001RP can be ordered with the -OP1 option, offering both IEEE-488
and RS232C remote control interfaces as well as extended measurements. These measurements are available from the front panel and
over the bus. The 2001RP uses closed case calibration for both output
and measurement calibration, lowering cost of ownership.
SCPI Protocol Programming Commands
All functions of the 2001RP are programmable over the available IEEE488 or RS232C interface. For example, the following tasks can be performed over the bus:
•Recall eight complete instrument setups from non-volatile memory
•Adjust current limit value
•Lock the front panel to prevent operator interference
•Switch between high and low voltage range
•Drop output voltage at specific phase angles for specified dura-
tions
Application Software
Windows™ application software is included with the -OP1 option package. This easy to use graphical interface program provides complete
Frequency Sweep transient causes the output
frequency to change at a user specified rate.
Voltage Sweep transient causes output
voltage to change at a programmed rate.
Note 1: Voltage drop out transients can be programmed at random phase angles or at 0, 90, 180 and 270 degrees.

Lower Power Models
For applications requiring less
than 2000 VA of output power, models 801RP and 1251RP offer lower
power levels at reduced cost.
These models are housed in a 3.5
inch high rackmount enclosure and
require even less rack height than
the 2001RP. Refer to the 801RP/
1251RP data sheet for details.
Three Phase AC Source
For applications requiring three
phase output up to 667 VA per
phase, refer to the Model 2003RP
data sheet
