Power sources: when it is necessary to use it in the laboratory

They are necessary in laboratories, because they are devices or equipment that are able to convert the alternating current into direct current, being able to regulate it according to the needs of the laboratory area, they are used to distribute or power other equipment so that they work directly from the electrical energy without the need for batteries.

They usually offer a direct current of 0-30 volts, with a variable power between 1 and 5 amps; however, there are different models that can reach 100 volts, 30 amps and more; Depending on the models and the needs of the laboratory, it is constituted by a box with several measuring instruments, the voltmeter to read the output voltage in volts, and the ammeter, which gives a more or less accurate indication of the amps circulating between the power and the equipment to which it feeds.

Use of energy sources in the laboratory

One of the main uses of power sources or power supply is to manage to give the necessary electricity to all appliances that use electricity, adapting a signal according to the needs of the use to give it, provide a constant flow of electricity, not all sources have the same characteristics, each one is chosen according to the needs of the activity to be performed.

It continuously transmits the electrical current needed to limit current or voltage through the power supplies to a certain level in order to avoid interruption of the test circuits; in addition, some power supply models allow to recover the current and voltage values frequently used in the laboratory by simple pressing of buttons.

How power supplies work in a lab

  • Because they have three independent fonts, they can be used in series or in parallel.
  • Autonomous mode: Each source acts separately, adjusting the voltage and current of each.
  • Parallel mode: All three sources are obtained with a voltage between 2.7 and 5.5 V and a current between 0 and 7.3 A.
  • Serial mode:  the three sources of the resulting output is a voltage between 0 and 69,5 V and a current between 0 and 2 A.

Characteristics of a power source for laboratory use

  • Auto memory function.
  • With constant voltage, constant current, constant power, malfunction, intelligent fault warning functions.
  • Automatic detection of no load, overload, short circuit, rapid resistance change, ground leakage and system overheating.
  • Molding box, touch keys, intelligent dual-core chip control.
  • With standard timing function.
  • With standard operation function, synchronization, V-hr, step by step.
