DCS50-40M16 - 50V 38A programmable power supply (Sorensen) - Used

Sorensen / Elgar 50V 38A Programmable 2kW DC Switching Power Supply, model number DCS50-40M16 - previously used. The front panel features a 10-turn current control knob with a locking shaft, along with a current monitor (100mv/Amp). The voltage (and current) can be monitored and controlled via the "programming, sense, and monitor connector, J3," located on the back of the unit. See product manual for details. These units were manufactured in a configuration without front panel meters and no front panel voltage control, as shown in the pictures.
