1 Safety Summary

The following safety precautions apply to both operating and maintenance personnel and

must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this instrument.

Before applying power, follow the installation instructions and become familiar with the

operating instructions for this instrument.

GROUND THE INSTRUMENT

To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cabinet must be

connected to an electrical ground. This instrument is grounded through the

ground conductor of the supplied, three-conductor ac power cable. The power

cable must be plugged into an approved three-conductor electrical outlet. Do not

alter the ground connection. Without the protective ground connection, all

accessible conductive parts (including control knobs) can render an electric

shock. The power jack and mating plug of the power cable meet IEC safety

standards.

DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE

Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.

Operation of any electrical instrument in such an environment constitutes a

definite safety hazard.

KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS

Instrument covers must not be removed by operating personnel. Component

replacement and internal adjustments must be made by qualified maintenance

personnel. Disconnect the power cord before removing the instrument covers

and replacing components. Under certain conditions, even with the power cable

removed, dangerous voltages may exist. To avoid injuries, always disconnect

power and discharge circuits before touching them.

DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE

Do not attempt any internal service or adjustment unless another person,

capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation, is present.

DO NOT SUBSTITUTE PARTS OR MODIFY THE INSTRUMENT

Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modifications to this

instrument. Return the instrument to B&K Precision for service and repair to

ensure that safety features are maintained.

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

WARNING and CAUTION statements, such as the following examples, denote a

hazard and appear throughout this manual. Follow all instructions contained in

these statements.

A WARNING statement calls attention to an operating procedure, practice, or

condition, which, if not followed correctly, could result in injury or death to

personnel.

A CAUTION statement calls attention to an operating procedure, practice, or

condition, which, if not followed correctly, could result in damage to or

destruction of parts or the entire product.

WARNING:

Do not alter the ground connection. Without the protective

ground connection, all accessible conductive parts (including

control knobs) can render an electric shock. The power jack and

mating plug of the power cable meet IEC safety standards.

WARNING:

To avoid electrical shock hazard, disconnect power cord before

removing covers. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.

CAUTION:

Before connecting the line cord to the AC mains, check the rear

panel AC line voltage indicator. Applying a line voltage other

than the indicated voltage can destroy the AC line fuses. For

continued fire protection, replace fuses only with those of the

specified voltage and current ratings.

CAUTION:

This product uses components which can be damaged by electro-

static discharge (ESD). To avoid damage, be sure to follow

proper procedures for handling, storing and transporting parts

and subassemblies which contain ESD-sensitive components.

2 Introduction

Description

The B&K Precision model 1739 is a high quality, low current DC power source.

This power supply provides 0-30 volts dc output, adjustable with both coarse and

fine voltage controls for precise settability. The current output is 0-1 amps,

adjustable with both coarse and fine current controls. Two large LED meters

continuously monitor the output voltage and current. The VOLTAGE meter is

green, while the CURRENT meter is red.

The power supply can be programmed locally from the front panel or remotely

through the RS-232 interface. Two large LED meters continuously monitor the

output voltage and current. The voltage meter is green, while the current meter

is red. The power supply can be operated locally from the front panel or

remotely through the RS-232 interface.

The 1739 exhibits excellent regulation and low ripple characteristics. The circuit

design incorporates a pre-regulator, which greatly reduces internal power

dissipation at low output voltages. The styling is both attractive and functional.

The mechanical configuration conserves bench space and allows for easy

portability.

This instrument may be used in constant voltage or constant current

applications. The crossover from constant voltage to constant current modes is

smooth and automatic. LEDs indicate the “CV” (constant voltage) or “CC”

(constant current) mode of operation. In constant voltage applications, a current

limit may be preset. When load variations cause the current to reach the preset

limit, the unit then regulates output current rather than output voltage.

Current limits are adjustable from 1.0 mA to maximum, in as little as 0.1 mA

steps. In constant current applications, the maximum voltage may be preset.

When load variations cause current to drop below the regulated value, the unit

reverts to regulated voltage operation at the preset value.

Reverse polarity protection prevents accidental damage to the power supply

from improper connection to an external device, and current limiting protects

the equipment being powered, as well as the power supply.

The output is isolated from chassis and earth ground, which permits full flexibility

of connections. When needed, the (+) or (-) polarity may be strapped to ground,

or either polarity may be floated to an external voltage. Two supplies may be

connected in series as a 0-to-60 V power source, or two supplies may be

connected in parallel for up to twice the output current.

This power supply is well suited for a wide variety of electrical and electronics

applications in service shops, engineering labs, production testing, school

laboratories, and home use by hobbyists, where precise levels of low current are

required, including 4-20 mA loop testing and calibration or simple IC testing.

4 Operating Instructions

Safety Precautions

Use only a polarized 3-wire AC outlet. This assures that the power supply chassis,

case, and ground terminal are connected to a good earth ground and reduces

danger from electrical shock.

There is little danger of electrical shock from the power supply output, which

produces a maximum of 30 volts dc. However, there may be great danger of

electrical shock if the power supply output is connected to an external high

voltage. Some equipment being powered may contain high voltage and present a

shock hazard. Observe caution. If the power supply output is floated (referenced

to a voltage rather than earth ground) turn off the power supply and the

equipment under test when making connections. Never float the power supply to

a potential greater than 100 volts peak with respect to earth ground.

Equipment Precautions

Avoid using the power supply in ambient temperatures above +40° C. Always

allow sufficient air space around the heat sink at the rear of the power supply for

effective radiation to prevent internal heat build-up.

Although the power supply is protected against reverse polarity damage, the

circuit being powered may not include such protection. Always carefully observe

polarity; incorrect polarity may damage the equipment under test.

Do not exceed the voltage rating of the circuit being powered. Many transistors

and integrated circuits will not withstand voltage of 30 volts.

There is no need to worry about voltage spikes or overshoot damaging the

equipment under test. The voltage between the output terminals of the power

supply never exceeds the preset value as the POWER switch is turned on or off.
