pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence.
Pollution degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution
occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused
by condensation must be expected.
Pollution degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-
conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to
condensation which is expected. In such conditions, equipment
is normally protected against exposure to direct sunlight,
precipitation, and full wind pressure, but neither temperature

the power cord meets the following safety instructions.
NOTE: This lead/appliance must only be wired by competent persons
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT: The wires in this lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
As the colours of the wires in main leads may not correspond with the
coloured marking identified in your plug/appliance, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured Green & Yellow must be connected to the Earth
terminal marked with either the letter E, the earth symbol or coloured
Green/Green & Yellow.
The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal which
is marked with the letter N or coloured Blue or Black.
The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter L or P or coloured Brown or Red.
If in doubt, consult the instructions provided with the equipment or
contact the supplier.
This cable/appliance should be protected by a suitably rated and approved
HBC mains fuse: refer to the rating information on the equipment and/or
user instructions for details. As a guide, a cable of 0.75mm2 should be
protected by a 3A or 5A fuse. Larger conductors would normally require
13A types, depending on the connection method used.
Any exposed wiring from a cable, plug or connection that is engaged in a
live socket is extremely hazardous. If a cable or plug is deemed hazardous,
turn off the mains power and remove the cable, any fuses and fuse
assemblies. All hazardous wiring must be immediately destroyed and
replaced in accordance to the above standard.

The PSB series are variable output, highperformance, regulated, switching DC power
supplies. They incorporate a high-frequency
current suppression circuit and accept input
voltages rated from AC100V to 240V without the
need to switch inputs. The offer a wide voltage
and current range within their maximum rated
power envelope. They also have a variable
constant power function. They have standard
features such as voltage and current settings, an
output on/off switch, monitor outputs and other
functions via external connectors. The chasis is
smaller overall than traditional power supplies to
reduce the total work area. The dual channel
model and the booster unit extend the series to
cover a wider range of applications. The PSB series
are also able to execute sequence programs that
are written using the optional interface boards.
The optional interface boards also allow you to
control the PSB series remotely from a PC using
GPIB, RS232C or USB.

Introduction
Make sure that the power source is shut off.
Use the AC power cable supplied with the
product.
Plug the connector of the AC power cable into
the AC INPUT receptacle on the rear panel.
Introduction
Use cables with a rated voltage that exceeds the
grounding voltage (500V) for the load.
The front output terminals and rear output
terminals are electrically connected internally.
When the front output terminals are used, the rear
output terminals are also active. Put the protective
covers supplied with the product on the rear
output terminals to avoid electrocution.
CAUTION
Make sure that the load is only connected when
the POWER switch is off.
To connect a load, use cables that have a large
enough current capacity for the rated output and

Procedure
1. Remove the AC cable from the AC INPUT.
2. Connect crimped lug terminals to the ends of
the load cables. Tighten the lug terminals
firmly using the nuts supplied with the power
supply.
CAUTION
The rear output terminals have M6 holes and M3
(tapped) holes.
Be sure to use the M6 holes to connect the load.

Hi-Ω- Function
Introduction
The PSB-2000 series power supplies have filter
capacitors connected to the output. The PSB-L
power supplies also have a bleeder circuit to
discharge these capacitors to a safe level when the
output is turned off. When the Hi-Ω function is
activated, the bleeder circuit is deactivated. This
allows you to omit reverse-current preventing
diodes that are necessary for charging batteries or
capacitors when a bleeder circuit is active.
When the Hi-Ω function is activated, the internal
filter capacitors can remain charged even after the
power has been turned off and thus can be quite
dangerous. As a safety measure, the bleeder
circuits are programmed to turn back on after a
predeterminded amount of time (5 ~ 30 minutes)
after the output has been turned off.
Procedure
1. Press the MENUkey until menu number “03” is
displayed.
2. Press the ENTER /CHECK key to enter the Hi-Ω
function setting mode. Select ON or OFF with
the encoder wheel. The Hi-Ω function is set to

PSB-2000 Series User Manual
CAUTION
When the Hi-Ω function is activated, the output
terminals of the power supply unit keep on
carrying voltage even after the output is turned
off.
The Hi-Ω LED will blink when Hi-Ω function is
still active as the internal capacitors remain
charged. Voltages as high as 80V may remain at
the terminals when the output is turned off. Such a
state is very dangerous. To avoid accidents,
isolate the output terminals from the load cables
completely with a relay or switch.

Delay Function
Introduction
The delay function is available on the dual channel
model (PSB-2400L2) only. It adds a rise and fall delay
time to the output of channel 2 for a specified amount
of time (in seconds) from a reference point (output of
channel 1). The rise delay time refers to the delay
time for turning the output on. The fall delay time
refers to the delay time for turning the output off.

Introduction
The tracking function is available on the dual
channel model (PSB-2400L2) only. When the
tracking function is turned on, the output of
channel 2 is made to match the output of channel
1, thus channel 2 can be said to “track” channel 1.
This effectively means that the values of both

Description
The PSB-2000 series power supply units have an
output voltage remote sensing function. This
function eliminates influences of voltage drops
between the power supply unit and load, which is
caused by the contact resistance or the resistance of
the load cable conductors.
Voltage sense compensates for a voltage of up to
1V on a single terminal.
CAUTION
When the voltage sense function is used, the
voltage at the front or rear terminals of the power
supply unit must not exceed the rated voltage.
If the load cables are long, the inductance and the
capacity of the load cables may cause oscillation.
To avoid oscillation, connect an electrolytic
capacitor of a several hundred to several thousand
μF to the load terminals.
Procedure
1. Make sure that the POWER switch is off before
making any connections.
2. Disconnect the wire that shorts the + and +S
terminals or - and -S terminals on the fourterminal block on the left of the output
terminals on the rear panel (this will need to be
done for both channels on the PSB-2400L2).
3. Connect the positive sensing terminal (+S) to
the positive side of the load and the negative
sensing terminal (-S) to the negative side of the
load, as shown below. If the sensing wires are
disconnected, control will become unstable and
a voltage greater than the set voltage could be
applied to the load. Connect the sensing wires

NOTE
Approximately 1mA of current flows through the
sensing wires at the rated output voltage. Use
AWG 26 to 18 wires as the sensing wires.

Introduction
The output voltage can be controlled by an
external voltage or resistance through the J3
external connection (EXT CONT) on the rear panel
if external control is selected.
CAUTION
The negative side of the external voltage is
connected with the negative output terminal of
the power supply unit. Have the external voltage
source floating to avoid accidents or malfunctions.
If the external resistor is disconnected for some
reason when operating in the external control
mode, an excessively-high voltage could be
applied to the output. This occurs as a
disconnected resistor appears as an open circuit,
which in turn is interpreted as a resistance of
10kΩ. If fixed resistances are used, use shortingtype switches to switch between the fixed
resistances to avoid open circuits.
The pins used for external voltage control or for
external resistance control are the same. Check
with control method is selected (external voltage
or external resistance), before connecting the pins.

parallel connection kit for horizontal installation,
PSB-003 or the parallel connection kit for vertical
installation, PSB-004 can also be used to physically
connect the units together. The joint kit, PSB-007, is
included with the PSB-003 and PSB-004 connection
kits. Use these kits as the necessity requires.
The sum of the master unit current and slave unit
current is displayed on the master unit. See the
specifications on page 155 for the displayed items
and setting resolution for parallel operation.
Output depends on the master unit. When the
OUTPUT key of the master unit is pressed, the
outputs of the slave units are turned on
automatically.
CAUTION
The PSB-2400L2 is not capable of parallel operation.

PSB-2000 Series User Manual
CAUTION
Improper wiring or settings may cause failures.
Recheck the settings before starting frame control
operation.
If the load cables of a slave unit are disconnected,
excessive voltage is applied to the slave unit
instantaneously and a “HArd” alarm occurs.
Check if the cables are connected properly. Repair
improper connections. The master unit displays
the total current. If the actual value is remarkably
different from the set current and/or output
current, improper power may possibly be set in the
setting shown in the Master-slave function chapter
on page 71. Recheck the set power.
When using frame link-controlled parallel
operation, the current indicated on the master unit
may fluctuate due to the influence of the load wire
resistance. In such cases, use the optional
connection kit, PSB-003 (Horizontal Installation
Connection Kit), PSB-004 (Vertical Installation
Connection Kit) or a low-impedance-load wire.
Use the PSB-2400L as the master unit when
controlling the PSB-2400L and PSB-2800L using the
the frame link control method.

Description
The PSB-L series power supply (exlcluding the
PSB-2400L2) units are capable of frame link
controlled series operation of up to two units,
including the master unit. When performing series
operation using master units, the slave unit should
be set properly in advance, see the Master-slave
function chapter on page 71.
Output depends on the master unit. When the
OUTPUT key on the master unit is pressed, the
output of the slave unit is turned on automatically.
Connect the master and slave unit with the optional
PSB-006 cable.
CAUTION
Improper wiring or setting may cause failures.
Recheck the setting before starting frame link
control operation.

Description
The PSB-2800LS (booster unit) is especially
designed to boost the power capacity when used in
parallel. It is possible to increase the output up to a
maximum of 3200W when used in parallel with a
PSB-2800L as the master unit).
NOTE
Note that the PSB-2800LS cannot be used for series
operation.
Fig. Front and
Rear panel of
PSB-2800LS
Description
The PSB-2800LS is not equipped with a power
switch. The PSB-2800LS relies on a master unit to
turn it on when it is connected in parallel. As soon
as the master unit is turned on any connected
PSB-2800LS power supply is also turned on (see
page 71 for details).
In other words, the PSB-2800LS cannot be used
alone. So before using the PSB-2800LS, check to
make sure that the AC power cable, signal cables
and load wires are connected properly. Improper
wiring or settings may cause problems.
