AMETEK Programmable Power has entered into a strategic distribution and authorized service partnership with Transcat, Inc. This collaboration expands global access to certified NIST-traceable calibration, accredited lab support, and rapid delivery for programmable DC supplies and AC power sources across North America and overseas markets.
The Mi-BEAM modular bidirectional DC power platform has been honored with a prestigious Industry Innovation Award. Recognized for achieving up to 96% energy regeneration efficiency and unprecedented power density, the system simplifies high-power battery cycling, EV drivetrain simulation, and microgrid energy storage testing.
Engineered for SmallSat and Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite power subsystem validation, the Elgar m-SAS Series delivers ultra-fast I-V curve generation, high closed-loop bandwidth, and precise Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) emulation in a compact multi-channel system architecture.
The Mi-BEAM Series provides seamless sourcing and sinking capability from 12 kW up to 37 kW in a single chassis, scalable up to 1.2 MW. Engineered with regenerative energy recovery, it drastically reduces utility costs and HVAC cooling requirements for demanding automotive and aerospace test labs.
The Advanced Solar Power Simulator (ASPS) Series offers dual-channel output designed for space solar array testing. Featuring sub-microsecond response speeds and full eclipse simulation capabilities, ASPS supports mission-critical space probe testing under realistic orbital power conditions.
The i-BEAM platform delivers extreme current capacity up to 1,000 amperes per unit, providing high-power regenerative DC source and load capabilities for large battery pack validation, DC bus testing, and heavy electric vehicle drivetrain qualification.
Every innovation announced by AMETEK Programmable Power undergoes stringent quality validation, environmental screening, and calibration standards. Supported by over 50 years of power electronics experience, our engineering teams empower international manufacturers to meet complex international standards, including MIL-STD-704, DO-160, IEC 61000, and automotive ISO 16750 standards.
With dedicated service hubs across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Americas, global buyers receive comprehensive application consultation, local calibration support, and fast warranty services worldwide.
