Frequently Asked Questions

A bidirectional DC power supply can both source and sink current, allowing it to supply power to a device and absorb returned energy—ideal for battery testing, regenerative braking systems, and renewable energy applications.

Regenerative bidirectional power supplies are ideal when your application returns energy to the source, such as in battery cycling, motor testing, or solar inverter validation. They help reduce energy costs and heat dissipation.

  • The EA-PSB Series combines a programmable DC source and an electronic load in one unit. With regenerative capability, it can return up to 96% of absorbed energy to the grid—ideal for efficient battery, EV, and solar inverter testing.
  • The EA-PUB/PUL/PU Industrial Series is similar to the EA-PSB, but it is built for higher power, up to 60kW per unit. This is ideal for higher power environments.
  • The AL-3000R is ideal for more basic, high-power requirements. This single box solution is a simplified set up. In contrast, the Tektronix-Elektro Automatik units are modular and scalable, providing more flexibility and advanced capabilities.
