Name: GXC804B-5K Series Regenerative AC/DC Power Source
Brand: XGY Tek

Overview

GXC804B provides AC/DC source and regenerative-load operation for grid simulation, RLC/RCD load tests and bipolar DC work. The 4U family spans 5 to 22.5 kW, with single- or three-phase configurations selected by model.

Additional product details

The GXC804B-5K 4-quadrant architecture returns energy to the grid during load operation, reducing facility power consumption. The GXC804B-5K provides standard LAN, front-panel USB, Modbus, and SCPI communication, and OVP, OCP, OPP, and OTP protection.

Regeneration, harmonics and rack context

GXC804B-5K four-quadrant operation returns absorbed energy to the grid, so back-feed permission, site protection settings and the supply agreement have to be settled before a regenerative-load or PHIL bench can be commissioned. GXC804B-5K harmonic generation to the 100th order is only meaningful where that order still falls inside the DC to 1 kHz output bandwidth, so the usable harmonic depth falls as the programmed fundamental rises. A 4U chassis puts a four-quadrant AC and DC source into a bench-scale rack, which is what makes this platform practical as a PHIL amplifier standing next to the simulator rather than as a separate installation.

Key Capabilities & Applications

Frequency-dependent AC envelope

AC output is 0–450 V L-N at 0.01–70 Hz and 0–300 V L-N above 70 Hz to 1 kHz. DC output reaches 636 V; <0.5% THD applies from DC to 400 Hz.

Regenerative source/load operation

Four-quadrant operation returns absorbed energy to the grid. AC, DC and AC+DC output modes and CV / CC / CP / CR / bipolar DC controls support different DUTs.

Remote control and optional PHIL

LAN and USB support Modbus and SCPI. The -EXDA analog/digital I/O extension is optional and provides the PHIL interface.

Performance notes

Reading the output envelope before committing

The GXC804B-5K voltage envelope is frequency-dependent, and that is the figure most often misread: 0 to 450 V L-N is available at 0.01 to 70 Hz, while output from 70 Hz to 1 kHz is bounded at 0 to 300 V L-N. Distortion carries its own condition, since THD is specified as < 0.5% from DC to 400 Hz rather than across the whole 1 kHz range, so a test written at the top of the frequency range should not assume the headline distortion figure. Current per phase moves only from 0 to 30 A to 0 to 35 A across the 5 kW to 22.5 kW rated power models, so moving up the range buys voltage and phases rather than current and a low-voltage high-current DUT is not served by a larger model.

Selection guidance

Format: Regenerative AC/DC source/load

Coverage: 5 to 22.5 kW rated power; up to 450 V L-N AC at 0.01 to 70 Hz or 636 V DC; DC to 1 kHz

Best for: Grid, RLC/RCD load, bipolar DC, and HIL workflows needing AC/DC source and regenerative load operation.

The GXC804B-5K rated power tops out at 22.5 kW, so facility-scale AC grid simulation belongs on the high-power AC301SHP / AC303SHP series instead.

Is 450 V available across the full frequency range?

No. The AC envelope is 0–450 V L-N at 0.01–70 Hz and 0–300 V L-N from 70 Hz to 1 kHz. THD <0.5% is specified from DC to 400 Hz.

How do phase and current ratings vary?

5K is single-phase at 0–30 A. 15K is three-phase at 0–30 A per phase; 20K and 22.5K are three-phase at 0–35 A per phase.

Does PHIL require an option?

Yes. The optional -EXDA analog/digital I/O extension provides the PHIL interface. Its small-signal bandwidth and fast external-control response are associated with that option.
