Basics Electrical engineering

A Seamless Approach

From the very beginning, we have placed a strong emphasis on continuity in our products and solutions. This means that we have developed a foundational system that can be seamlessly supplemented with compatible expansion sets according to specific needs. As a result, new topics that will be integrated into education in the coming years can be easily implemented. Additionally, the integration of digital systems is playing an increasingly significant role in forward-looking education.

By utilizing a knowledge platform closely linked to the technology, both practical and theoretical content, as well as software packages, can be efficiently managed. This provides the ideal digital extension to our systems, creating a seamless learning solution for electrical engineering education that aligns with your individual preferences and requirements.

We start with the fundamentals

Regardless of the emphasis you place in your training - whether it's in the industry or in craftsmanship - electrical engineering and electronics are essential foundational knowledge.

One for all: only one system on the lab bench in the classroom.

The basic power supply in our basic training packages TP 1010 and TP 1011 provides everything that learners need for successful learning in the field of electrical engineering and electronics. All experiments and tasks leading to a comprehensive basic knowledge can be covered with it. A wide range of adjustable voltage sources is available on board. Whether DC or AC voltages, even 3 phase, all conceivable supply voltages can be tapped here. An integrated frequency generator supplies sine, triangle or square wave voltages. All this can be easily set via a rotary pushbutton control. Via the integrated USB interface a PC can be connected to our PSURemute software and thus set and measure with the basic power supply. The software can also be used to control functions such as the variable DC output, waveform, frequency, amplitude and offset of the frequency generator in the power supply. Measured values and time histories can even be recorded and saved on the PC.Learn more

The plug-in modules are unique

Due to the innovative and elaborate design of the plug-in modules, a unique combination of safety, visibility of the electronic components used and haptics could be achieved.

Each component has a standard-compliant printing with component designation, value and switching symbol. At the same time, a viewing window is integrated into the housing, which allows a view of the electronic component used at any time.

The accessibility of the connections on both sides allows measurement in the circuit or even a simple parallel connection of components by simply plugging them together.

On the safe side!

The system is fully equipped with safety plugs and sockets and is therefore state of the art. This applies to all electrical connections - whether on the components or the devices. This means that the equipment set can be used in all laboratories, even if higher voltages are available. Better safe than sorry.

And if, contrary to expectations, an electronic component should ever break, it can even be easily repaired. If a component for one of your self-designed tasks is not available in one of the extensive parts sets, you simply build the appropriate component into an empty housing.
