2.2 Front Panel Components
The front panel provides all controls and indicators for operating the power supply.
This image shows the front panel of the NJBVRS 1502D DC Regulated Power Supply, highlighting the power switch, current regulation knobs (coarse and fine), voltage regulation knobs (coarse and fine), and output terminals (GND, positive, negative). The digital display for current and voltage is also visible.
- Power Switch: Turns the unit on or off.
- Current Regulation Knobs (0.6A, 2A, ON/OFF): Selects the current range and enables/disables current output.
- Voltage Fixed Gear Knobs (1.5V, 3.6V, 4.8V, 6V, 7.2V, 0-15V): Selects preset voltage outputs or the adjustable range.
- Voltage Coarse Adjustment Knob: For large adjustments of the output voltage.
- Voltage Fine Adjustment Knob: For precise, small adjustments of the output voltage.
- Current Display: Digital readout for the output current in Amperes (A).
- Voltage Display: Digital readout for the output voltage in Volts (V).
- Output Terminals: Red (+) for positive, Black (-) for negative, Yellow (GND) for ground connection.

3. Setup
3.1 Unpacking
Carefully remove the power supply and all accessories from the packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage during transit. If any damage is found, contact your supplier immediately.
3.2 Placement
Place the power supply on a stable, level surface. Ensure there is adequate space around the unit for proper ventilation, especially around the rear fan opening. Avoid placing it near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
3.3 Power Connection
- Ensure the power switch on the front panel is in the 'OFF' position.
- Connect the provided power cord to the AC input socket on the rear of the power supply.
- Plug the other end of the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Powering On and Initial Check
- Ensure no load is connected to the output terminals.
- Turn the power switch to the 'ON' position. The digital displays should illuminate.
- Set the voltage fixed gear to '0-15V' for adjustable output.
- Adjust the Voltage Coarse and Fine knobs to set the desired output voltage.
- Adjust the Current Regulation knob to the desired current limit (e.g., 2A).
4.2 Connecting a Load
- With the power supply still on, ensure the output voltage and current limit are set to appropriate values for your load.
- Connect the positive (+) terminal of your load to the red (+) output terminal of the power supply.
- Connect the negative (-) terminal of your load to the black (-) output terminal of the power supply.
- If grounding is required for your application, connect the yellow (GND) terminal to the appropriate ground point.
4.3 Adjusting Output Voltage and Current
- Voltage Adjustment: Use the Voltage Coarse knob for large changes and the Voltage Fine knob for precise adjustments. The digital display will show the set voltage.
- Current Limit Adjustment: The Current Regulation knob sets the maximum output current. When the load draws current exceeding this limit, the power supply will enter constant current (CC) mode, and the output voltage will drop to maintain the set current.
- Fixed Voltage Output: For specific applications, you can select one of the fixed voltage outputs (1.5V, 3.6V, 4.8V, 6V, 7.2V) using the Voltage Fixed Gear knob.
4.4 Protection Features
The power supply is equipped with:
- Overvoltage Protection (OVP): Prevents damage to the load by limiting the output voltage.
- Short Circuit Protection (OCP): Automatically limits current in case of a short circuit at the output terminals.
- Over Temperature Protection: Shuts down the unit if internal temperatures exceed safe operating limits.
This model includes a warning buzzer that may activate under certain fault conditions, such as short circuits, to alert the user.
5. Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning
Regularly clean the exterior of the power supply with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the ventilation openings are free from dust and debris to maintain proper airflow.
5.2 Fan Maintenance
The intelligent temperature control fan helps dissipate heat. Periodically check the fan intake and exhaust for obstructions. If the fan becomes excessively noisy or stops working, discontinue use and seek professional servicing.
5.3 Storage
When not in use for extended periods, store the power supply in a cool, dry, and dust-free environment. Disconnect it from the main power supply.

6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your power supply, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No power, display off | Power cord disconnected, power switch off, no AC power from outlet. | Check power cord connection, ensure power switch is ON, verify outlet power. |
| No output voltage/current | Output terminals not connected, current limit set too low, protection activated. | Ensure load is properly connected, increase current limit, check for short circuits. |
| Warning buzzer sounds | Short circuit detected, overcurrent condition. | Immediately disconnect the load and check for short circuits or excessive current draw. |
| Unit overheats, fan runs constantly | Blocked ventilation, prolonged high load operation. | Ensure clear ventilation, reduce load if possible, operate in a cooler environment. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact customer support.
