E-482.00: Operating limits (open loop) with various capacitive loads, capacitance values in nF

19-inch benchtop device for dynamic continuous operation of PICA piezo actuators with high electrical capacitance. Analog control. Output voltage to 1050 V, bipolar can be set. 6 A peak current, 2 A continuous current.

Switching amplifier with pulse width modulation (PWM) of the piezo output voltage. When the piezo actuator is discharged, a circuitry for energy recovery stores part of the returning energy in a capacitor and makes it reusable for the next charging cycle. The amplifier runs cooler and provides better stability.
