AC6918L

AC6918L Three-Phase AC Power Source 320 Vrms, 18 kVA, 550 Hz

A Complete 3-Phase AC Power Solution - Keysight’s AC6918L AC Power Source provides a complete AC and DC power solution by combining the capabilities of a multimeter, harmonic analyser, and power analyser in one instrument. In a compact form factor, you can easily produce DC power, either alone or as a DC offset to an AC waveform.

Easily Achieve Your Test Goals with the Keysight AC6918L

The increasing demand for testing avionics devices such as air traffic management systems, sensors and crewless aircraft systems demands a sophisticated AC and DC power solution. Test system designers are constantly looking for ways to optimize their avionic electronic systems.

The Keysight AC6918L AC Power Source has the features you need to quickly achieve your test goals in either a research and development environment or on the manufacturing test floor.  The five-inch LCD colour display shows the main measurements for all phases simultaneously. The intuitive interface minimises your team’s learning curve while making measurements. The multiple IO connectivity – LXI-LAN, USB, and GPIB provides flexible synchronisation.

Simplify Test Setups with Accurate Measurement Capabilities

The Keysight AC6918L AC Power Source have extensive measurement capabilities that would typically require many complex measurement instruments encompassing a multimeter, harmonic analyser, and power analyser. The AC6918L is suitable for testing equipment in the avionics industry that operates at nominally 400 Hz, 800 Hz, or up to 5,000 Hz and meets RTCA DO-160 and MIL-STD-704 standards. These two standards include both AC and DC immunity tests.
