Benefits of Uni-T Linear Power Supplies:

• Low Noise: Uni-T linear power supplies generate minimal electrical noise, making them ideal for applications requiring sensitive measurements and precision.

• Precise Regulation: Our power supplies provide exceptional voltage and current regulation, ensuring stable and accurate outputs for your experiments and projects.

• Smooth Output: Uni-T's linear technology delivers a smooth, continuous output voltage, minimizing voltage ripple for applications that demand consistent voltage levels.

Use Cases:

• Single Output Model: Uni-T's single output models, with their 0-30V and 0-5A capabilities, are perfect for routine benchtop tasks, such as powering and testing individual components, circuits, or devices.

• Triple Output Model (Independent Channels):

  • Series Configuration: Utilize two independent channels in series to achieve higher voltage levels (e.g., 0-60V) while retaining the current capacity of each channel. This is particularly valuable for testing devices that require elevated voltage levels.

  • Parallel Configuration: Combine the current capabilities of two channels in parallel while maintaining the voltage output. This configuration is ideal for powering devices that demand higher current than a single channel can provide.

• Channel Three (Fixed Output):

  • The fixed 6V output with a maximum of 3.2A is suitable for powering components or devices that require a constant voltage supply, such as sensors or low-power circuits.
