Tell us the voltage and current your equipment needs. We check all 37 Vartech models and show the ones that fit, closest fit first.

Typical starting points

Use the maximum your load draws (see its nameplate). Fill in one value if you only know one.

What matters most?

Tip: choose a model with about 20% spare voltage and current over your load, so it is not running at its limit. Ratings shown are the maximum output of the main variable channel. Check the full specification page before ordering.

Choosing between linear, switch-mode and programmable

Linear supplies are transformer-based. They are heavier but have the lowest ripple and noise, which suits sensitive analogue and audio work.

Switch-mode (SMPS) supplies are light and compact for their power, and the SR series adds a PC interface for higher power loads.

Programmable supplies add memory sets, list mode and software control for repeatable and automated testing.
