You can monitor data
numerically and graphically - at
the same time, if you wish. The
graphical display uses color-
coded analog-style presentations
to show the voltage, current
and temperature of individual
modules, as well as fan speed
Real-time monitoring
iMP control software offers
exceptionally powerful real-
time monitoring facilities.
A single screen conveys all
status information, to provide
at-a-glance performance
confirmation for the entire
power supply, including the case
and all its constituent modules.
The monitoring screen displays
correlated functions as
sub-panels to ensure
easy, unambiguous
visual interpretation.
Configuration made easy
Setting-up an iMP power
module could not be simpler.
The same control screen is
used for all modules and all
operating parameters. So as well
as defining a module’s output
voltage and current, you can
just as easily adjust its OVP,
UVP and OTP limits, change its
OCP mode and control signal,
and force fan speed override if
required. All with clear on-screen
confirmation and feedback.
Emerson Network Power’s iMP™ digitally
programmable modular ac-dc power
supplies are the last word in flexibility.
Flexibility that you need every time you
specify, commission or replace a power
supply.
Gone are the times when multi-
output fixed-function power
supplies made sense. Today’s short
design-to-manufacture timescales,
narrow market windows and
whole-life cost reduction goals
demand adaptability at all levels
- especially in power provision.
iMP power supplies are modular
and digitally programmable. You
can configure the ideal unit of
your choice - and even change
your mind later, to accommodate
unforeseen or new power
requirements. Then you can set it
up to do exactly what you want,
when you want, via an easy-to-
use PC-based GUI.
6 types of power module -
including single, dual & triple
output units
25 standard output voltages,
from 2 Vdc to 60 Vdc
Up to 1,500 watts & 21
separate outputs from
one power supply
Optional power hold-up
and Oring modules
Full medical approval
to EN60601-1 Type B
Advanced PMBus™ digital
monitoring & control functions
Specify iMP power supplies
and gain the last word in flexibility.
Intelligent digital
control
All iMP ac-dc power supplies
are fully programmable. Both
the case and the individual
power modules feature integral
microcontrollers to maximize
control flexibility. And all
communication between the
host controller and the power
supply is handled via I2C bus,
using the standard PMBus
protocol.
The control software supplied
with every iMP power supply
runs under Windows® on any
standard PC, using Microsoft’s
.NET™ framework. It uses a
highly intuitive, easy-to-use
graphical user interface.
Configuration
flexibility
Totally modular in design, iMP
power supplies provide you
with unsurpassed configuration
flexibility. There is a choice of
25 different output voltages,
from 2 Vdc to 60 Vdc. As well
as single, dual and triple output
modules, and six different
power ratings. There is even an
optional power hold-up module
to increase voltage sag ride-
through time. Configuring the
power supply of your choice has
never been easier.
