The RP5900 Series integrates a bidirectional DC power supply and an independent regenerative electronic load in one unit. Its two-quadrant design enables seamless switching between sourcing and sinking current for efficient testing in both directions. The regenerative feature returns up to 95% of the energy consumed to the grid, minimizing energy and cooling costs without disrupting grid performance. Paired with the Pathwave Advanced Power Suite software, the RP5900 provides robust automation of complex test scenarios, delivering deeper insights and faster analysis. Validate complex power devices faster, in less space, with no compromise on performance or programmability.
