Linear regulated 2-channel laboratory power supply
August 2026Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
The PeakTech P 6191 from Vepac Electronics is a linear regulated 2-channel laboratory power supply that offers reliable performance and high safety thanks to an integrated safety transformer. With an adjustable output of 0 – 30 V and 0 – 5 A DC, it is versatile and ideal for various applications in laboratory and workshop environments. It has a current preselection function that allows the desired current value to be set before the load is connected. The four-digit blue LED displays in clearly and precisely indicate voltage, current and power.
The output button only outputs the selected settings to the output after they have been set, which prevents unintentional changes and provides additional safety. The temperature-controlled fan automatically adjusts to the temperature of the device, ensuring efficient cooling and quiet operation. With four potentiometers for current and voltage, the desired output values can be set quickly and precisely. The two output channels can be connected in series or parallel at the touch of a button to double the output voltage or current.
