Labworks PA-141 Linear Power Amplifier
The Labworks PA-141 Linear Power Amplifier is
a high quality, air-cooled, direct-coupled audio amplifier primarily
intended for use with vibration systems. Although this amplifier has been
designed to directly drive low impedance loads, it can be used in any
application requiring continuous duty, high quality, audio power.
There are two operational modes. The
amplifier can be used as either a wide-band, highly damped voltage source,
or as a high impedance current source. DC and AC coupled signal inputs are
provided.
Features:
-
Linear output stage provides low noise
and distortion.
-
Automatic over temperature and over
current protection.
-
Direct coupled input and output allows DC
operation.
-
External interlock circuitry.
-
Two operational modes, voltage or current
source.
-
Optional internal shaker field supplies.
