2. Consignes de sécurité

Before operating the device, please read and understand all safety instructions. Failure to comply may result in injury or damage to the equipment.

  • Assurez-vous que l'alimentation électrique est branchée sur une prise de courant mise à la terre.
  • N'utilisez pas l'appareil dans des conditions humides ou damp conditions.
  • Évitez de bloquer les ouvertures de ventilation pour éviter la surchauffe.
  • N’essayez pas d’ouvrir ou de réparer l’appareil. Confiez toute réparation à un personnel qualifié.
  • The device is equipped with overload and short-circuit protection. However, always ensure proper load connections.
  • Safety standards: EN-61010-1 and safety transformer according to EN-61558-2-6.

3. Installation

Follow these steps to set up your PeakTech P 6145 power supply:

  1. Déballage: Carefully remove the power supply from its packaging and inspect it for any signs of damage. Retain the packaging for future transport or storage.
  2. Placement: Place the unit on a stable, level surface. Ensure adequate ventilation around the device, leaving at least 10 cm of space on all sides, especially around the rear fan.
  3. Connexion électrique : Connect the provided power cord to the AC input socket on the rear panel of the power supply and then to a suitable grounded mains outlet. Ensure the mains voltage correspond à la valeur nominale indiquée sur l'appareil.
  4. Vérification initiale : Before connecting any load, ensure all control knobs are set to their minimum positions.

4. Mode d'emploi

The PeakTech P 6145 offers flexible operation with its dual adjustable outputs and a fixed output.

4.1 Panneau avant surview

  • Affichages numériques : Two sets of displays show the output voltage (V) and current (A) for the Master and Slave channels.
  • Voltage Adjustment Knobs: Fine and coarse adjustment for output voltage on each channel.
  • Boutons de réglage actuels : Fine and coarse adjustment for output current limit on each channel.
  • Bornes de sortie: 4mm safety sockets for Master (0-30V/0-5A), Slave (0-30V/0-5A), and Fixed (5V/3A) outputs.
  • Mode Selection Switches: For Master/Slave operation (Normal, Series, Parallel).
  • Bouton marche/arrêt de la sortie : Toggles the output for the adjustable channels. The fixed 5V/3A output is always active.
  • Interrupteur: Interrupteur d'alimentation principal de l'unité.

4.2 Fonctionnement de base (mode indépendant)

  1. Ensure the Master/Slave mode switch is set to NORMALE.
  2. Turn on the power supply using the main power switch.
  3. Régler le volumetage and current limit for the Master channel using its respective knobs. The displays will show the set values.
  4. Repeat for the Slave channel.
  5. Connect your load to the appropriate 4mm safety output terminals.
  6. Appuyez sur le SORTIE ON/OFF button to enable the output. The displays will now show the actual voltage et courant fournis à la charge.
  7. For the fixed 5V/3A output, simply connect your load to its dedicated terminals.

4.3 Fonctionnement maître/esclave

The two adjustable channels can be configured for series or parallel operation:

  • Mode série : Sélectionner SÉRIE on the mode switch. This combines the voltage of both channels, providing up to 60V (e.g., 30V + 30V) at the current limit of the Master channel (up to 5A). Connect the load to the Master output terminals.
  • Mode parallèle : Sélectionner PARALLÈLE on the mode switch. This combines the current of both channels, providing up to 10A (e.g., 5A + 5A) at the voltage of the Master channel (up to 30V). Connect the load to the Master output terminals.

In both series and parallel modes, the Master channel controls the overall output, and the Slave channel automatically adjusts accordingly.

5. Entretien

Un entretien approprié garantit la longévité et le fonctionnement fiable de votre alimentation électrique.

  • Nettoyage: Débranchez l'appareil avant de le nettoyer. Essuyez l'extérieur avec un chiffon doux et sec. N'utilisez pas de produits abrasifs ni de solvants.
  • Ventilation: Regularly check that the ventilation openings and fan are free from dust and debris. Use compressed air to clear any blockages if necessary.
  • Remplacement du fusible : If the unit fails to power on, check the fuse located in the power input socket on the rear panel. Replace it only with a fuse of the same type and rating (e.g., 250V/T3.15A).

6. Dépannage

Si vous rencontrez des problèmes avec votre alimentation électrique, consultez les problèmes et solutions courants suivants :

  • Pas d'alimentation :
    • Vérifiez que le cordon d'alimentation est bien branché à la fois à l'appareil et à la prise secteur.
    • Verify that the mains outlet is functional.
    • Check and replace the fuse if blown (refer to Section 5. Maintenance).
  • Pas de volume de sortietage/Actuel :
    • Assurez-vous que SORTIE ON/OFF button is pressed (output enabled).
    • Vérifiez si le voltage and current limit knobs are set above zero.
    • Vérifiez que la charge est correctement connectée et qu'elle n'est pas en court-circuit.
    • If the unit is in Constant Current (CC) mode, the current limit has been reached. Increase the current limit or reduce the load.
    • If the unit is in Constant Voltage (CV) mode, the voltage limit has been reached. Increase the voltage limit or reduce the load.
  • Overload/Short-Circuit Protection Activated:
    • The unit automatically protects itself from overload and short circuits. Disconnect the load, resolve the issue (e.g., reduce load resistance, fix short), and then re-enable the output.

If the problem persists after following these steps, contact customer support or a qualified service technician.
