B+K Precision models 1744A and 1745A are 0 to 35V, 0 to 10A DC Power Supply. These power supplies have all
of the great features you would expect B+K Precision power supplies to have and some new features not normally
seen on power supplies in this price range. The output-shorting button allows the user to short the output terminals to
set the current limit.
■ Largest selection of voltage and current
ratings ever offered
■ Connect two supplies in parallel to
double the current output
■ Connect two supplies in series to double
the voltage output
■ Reliable, Durable
■ Operate continuously at full load without
overheating
■ Fully overload protected
■ Coarse and fine voltage controls
■ Excellent regulation
■ Ve ry low ripple
■ Constant voltage or constant current
operation
■Continuously monitor voltage and cur-
rent output on two meters
