HP 85901A AC Power Source

The HP 85901A Portable AC Power Source works with your test equipment to provide the power you need, where you need it. The power source is small, with a briefcase handle that makes it easy to carry and it fits into tight spots. You can use the built-in battery of the power source or connect it to an external 12 Vdc source for even longer operation.

Plug your test equipment into the HP 85901A AC Power Source and turn the instrument on. You'll get more than an hour of operation at 100 Watts continuous load. When the battery charge gets low, the power source automatically shuts off. This prevents any deep discharge degradation. You can recharge the battery in six hours or less from the point of full discharge.

The HP 85901A AC Power Source protects itself and your test equipment. It has over-voltage, short-circuit, and over-load protection on the inverter output. The power source also has over-voltage protection on the inverter input and over-charge and over-discharge protection for the internal battery.
