These amplifiers convert an input voltage into a proportional output current with high accuracy and stability over a wide frequency range of DC to 100 kHz (8200) and DC to 10 kHz (8210). With 100A output current, a compliance voltage of 7 V RMS, and low harmonic distortion (-60 dB to 10 kHz), these amplifiers are ideal for testing current transformers, power sensors and power meters.<\/p>\n<h3>Excellence in performance and accuracy<\/h3>\n<p>The Clarke-Hess 8200 and 8210 are designed for applications requiring high precision, stability and minimal distortion:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&gt;

100% overload set range:<\/strong> All ranges can be loaded up to 200% of their rated value without loss of performance (except the 100 A range).<br \/>\n<strong>&gt; Advanced colour display:<\/strong> Settings, compliance voltage (0 &#8211; 7 V) and input signal frequency (10 Hz &#8211; 500 kHz) are displayed in real time.<br \/>\n<strong>&gt; Front panel calibration:<\/strong> DC offset and transconductance can be adjusted directly without opening the housing.<br \/>\n<strong>&gt; Coaxial output for high currents:<\/strong> The 20 A and 100 A ranges use an LC connector to minimise inductance.<\/p>\n<h3>Applications<\/h3>\n<p>The Clarke-Hess 8200 and 8210 are ideal for:<\/p>\n<p><strong>&gt;
