Magna Power SLC32-46/440 DC Power Supply

Overview

The Magna Power SLC32-46/440 is a programmable DC power supply in the SL Series, delivering 32 volts at 46 amps (1.5 kW). Engineered using current-fed topology, this 1U rack-mount unit provides reliable power for demanding ATE and test system applications. Designed and manufactured in the USA, it is UL/CSA listed with CE Mark approval.

The supply features extensive diagnostic capabilities including AC phase loss detection, thermal monitoring, clear fuse detection, and line voltage validation. In standby or fault conditions, the AC mains are mechanically disconnected via an embedded contactor, ensuring safe operation. An external emergency stop system can be integrated using the dedicated +5V interlock input with included reference.
