Frequently asked questions

Common questions about B&K PRECISION DC from 3G Electric.

What is the difference between B&K Precision dual-range and multi-range DC power supplies?

Dual-range models, such as the 9172B and 9182B, provide two selectable output ranges, allowing higher voltage or higher current operation from one unit. Multi-range models, such as the 9240 and 9241, offer a wider combination of voltage and current settings, often with higher power output. Both types include NIST-traceable calibration and are used in bench and system applications. The choice depends on the required voltage, current, and power envelope for the specific test or production task.
