SAN DIEGO, CA, November 2, 2007 — Xantrex Technology Inc. (TSX:XTX) today announced the launch of the new XTR Series Programmable DC Power Supplies. The XTR Series has the highest power density for a 1U, half-rack form factor power supply and offers more control and connection options than any competitive product on the market.
The new 850-watt XTR Series is available in 12 models, ranging in power from 6 volts to 600 volts, and is designed for a wide range of production test, laboratory, original equipment manufacturer (OEM), and quality assurance applications. It provides comprehensive interfaces, including USB 2.0 and offers features unavailable on competitive units, such as auxiliary outputs and a save/recall mode that captures three memory settings. Economical connection of up to 30 XTR Series units is accomplished via a multi-channel RS-485 bus that eliminates the need for a GPIB card in each unit. GPIB and LAN Ethernet interfaces for connecting to a PC or other network devices are optional.
“The XTR Series provides our customers with a powerful new solution for their test production and OEM applications,” said Joe Budano, Xantrex’s President & General Manager, Programmable Power. “This product was designed for seamless system integration as well as ease of operation with powerful front panel user controls.”
Xantrex rigorously tests its power supplies using Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT), to ensure reliability under the toughest conditions, and backs the XTR Series with a comprehensive five year warranty - the longest warranty on the market.
The XTR Series can be ordered now from Xantrex and its network of authorized distributors and representatives.
