• Maximum AC rms current (low/high range): 10A/5A
• Frequency: 40 to 500 Hz
• Engineer reliability into your designs with a basic AC power source

Maximize your uptime with the new Keysight AC6800B Series basic AC power sources, and test your devices with confidence your products will perform as designed – even if the voltage from the AC power grid is fluctuating or you are facing extreme inrush current or transient spikes.

Easy Operation with an Intuitive, Time-Tested User Interface

The AC6800B’s simple user interface allows you to easily access and view setup and measurement information directly from the front panel or programmatically. And you won’t need to spend a lot of time learning to use the interface. If you’ve used a Keysight DC power supply, you’ll feel right at home with the AC6800B Series basic sources.

Set your display to show just the information you want

Simply click through the metering options to modify the display to show your measurement priorities and increasing levels of detail.

The information displayed indicates both the setting levels and the selected output coupling mode or configuration to allow you to control the AC source programmatically.

Measurements may be AC coupled, DC coupled, or AC+DC coupled independent of the output coupling mode.

Whether you use the front panel or control your AC source programmatically via SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments), you can fully access all features.

Flexible I/O to Meet Your Needs

Keysight AC6800B Series basic AC power sources come with LAN/LXI Core and USB interfaces (standard). For your legacy applications, an optional GPIB interface is also available that you can easily install yourself.

Add more flexibility with an optional analog input board to add basic transient signals

If you want to generate non-sinusoidal output waveforms or output transient events, use the optional analog input, which allows you to create analog waveforms using your function generator. The analog input option is also useful in situations where you want to control the output voltage level with an external DC control signal.

Testing universal power supplies designed to work globally

• The AC6800 AC source can be used to output the voltages and frequencies found around the world. The AC6800 has many built-in measurements, it can accurately measure power in Watts, VA, and phase angle. Inrush current can be measured consistently by setting the phase angle at which the voltage turns on.

Testing avionic electronics designed for 400 Hz

• If you need single-phase 400 Hz power on the bench to check avionic electronics the AC6800B series can supply clean power. The AC6800 series offers a wide variety of input voltages and frequencies and can provide 500 VA to 4 kVA. It is currently used in the development, manufacturing, and repair of avionic electronics.

Testing commercial light drivers and ballasts

• LED drivers and fluorescent ballasts can be tested up to 310 VAC which is ideal for testing electronics to 277 VAC ± 10%. In manufacturing, many ballasts can be verified in parallel with an AC source capable of 500 VA to 4 kVA. An AC6800B series is used to output steady voltage allowing the ballast to be tested for efficiency and output regulation.
