Outline
The PLZ-5W Series is the high performance electronic load that took over the superb operability of the former model, "PLZ-4W", adopting with a high visibility of color display (LCD).
The PLZ-5W Series is complied with the low operation voltage from the minimum of 1 V up to the maximum voltage of 150 V and it equips with the operation mode "ARB" in addition to the conventional 6 modes (Constant Current / Constant Resistance / Constant Voltage / Constant Power / Constant Current + Constant Voltage / Constant Resistance + Constant Voltage), the "ARB" mode features to apply as "IV characteristics" mode which enables you to set the required current value against the input voltage.
The high-speed response feature with the maximum slew rate of 60A/μs (PLZ1205W) and the minimum setting resolution of 10μA(PLZ205W), the PLZ5W equips with the Soft-start function, variable slew rate, selectable response (CV/CR mode), Switching function, ABC preset memory, 20 ways of set-up memories, and the Sequence feature.Because of the high-speed response, the PLZ5W can be applied to the power supply testing that requires the variable high-speed current and also for the current sensor testing.
Moreover, the broad range of an external input voltage complies to the various application of testings. The PLZ-5W Series are available in 4 models and extend the system by adding the booster unit (PLZ2405W) up to 10.8 kW / 2160 A system realized at the low cost and space saving configuration. The communication interfaces are installed with the PLZ-5W Series for the LAN (LXI compliant), USB, and RS232C as standard feature, and which can be easily accommodate with the system operation.
Features
- Color liquid crystal display (LCD)
Allows easy-to-see display in color. The voltage value, current value, power value, current capacity value (Ah), and power capacity value (Wh) at the load input terminal are indicated on the display.
-
Maximum Slew Rate of 60 A/μs
Realize 4 μs of the rise time to reach the rated current value. Applied to the fast transient response test as highly demanded in the power supply evaluation.
-
High speed voltage tracking characteristics
The high speed voltage tracking characteristic of the CR mode can be applied to such as the startup test of the power supply.
-
Communication interfaces are standard features
LAN (LXI) / USB / RS232C as standard interface. Use a browser from a PC, smartphone, or tablet to access the web server built into the PLZ-5W series for convenient control and monitoring. *GPIB Option

Sequence Creation Software Wavy for PLZ-5W (SD023-PLZ-5W)
The Wavy for PLZ-5W (SD023-PLZ-5W) is an application software that supports sequence creation and the operation of the Kikusui power supplie and the electronic load. The “Wavy” software allows you to create and edit sequences visually using a mouse without programming knowledge. It enables you to control the power supply in much the same way as remote controller for such monitoring the voltage and current, logging and so on.

Arbitrary I-V characteristics (ARB) mode
In arbitrary I-V characteristics (ARB) mode, arbitrary I-V characteristics can be set by registering multiple I-V characteristic points (set of voltage value and current value). Three up to 100 points can be registered, and the space between two points is linearly interpolated. This mode can be used for simulation of LED loads and the like.

Booster (PLZ2405WB)
Realize 2400 W in "2U" size Connecting up to 4 units of the booster (PLZ2405WB) unit enables the system to increase the capacity combined with the master unit the PLZ1205W. (Max. 10.8 kW, 2160 A) The optional parallel cable (PC01-PLZ-5W) is reguired to connect between the unit and for the number of units are connected. *PLZ2405WB is a dedicated booster for PLZ1205W. It cannot be used with any other model.
-
Parallel operation
Capable of connecting the same model up to 5 units for parallel operation system. Without using boosters, you can connect up to five units of the same model in parallel, including the master unit (max. 6 kW, 1200 A). In the parallel connection configuration, one control master operates with one or more slave units, enabling you to control the entire system and view its data on the master unit’s panel. To connect the units requires the use of as many optional parallel cables (PC01-PLZ-5W) as the number of units to be connected. *The PLZ2405WB (Booster) comes with 1 pc. of parallel operation cable (PC01-PLZ-5W).
