Keysight RP7963A Regenerative DC Power System

Overview

The Keysight RP7963A is a single-output, bidirectional regenerative DC power supply from the RP7900 Series. It combines power sourcing and electronic loading in a compact 3U package, designed for high-voltage energy storage and power converter testing. The regenerative capability safely returns energy to the grid instead of dissipating it as heat, reducing cooling and operational costs.

Key Features

• Output ratings: 950 V, ±20 A, 10 kW
• Two-quadrant operation as power source and regenerative electronic load
• Programmable battery emulation with resistance up to 50 Ω
• Fast output speed with sub-millisecond command-processing time
• Easy parallel connection for up to 200 kW total power
• Eco-friendly regenerative design returns energy to grid
• Compact 3U-high package saves rack space

Applications

• High-voltage electric vehicle (EV) and hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) power converter testing
• High-voltage energy storage system (ESS) validation and characterization
• High-voltage battery charger and power converter testing
• Photovoltaic (PV) inverter testing and validation at high voltages
