Variac variable transformers  

• Continuously variable Dimmerstat auto transformers and voltage stabilisers for applications from the testing of electrical and electronic equipment to power regulation in industrial processes such as plating rectifiers, cathodic protection rectifiers and battery chargers.
• Manually variable autotransformers
• Air cooled as well as oil cooled types
• Motor-driven single and three-phase configurations
• Variable transformers remotely using 4-20 mA process control loops.  

The Automatic Electric Dimmerstat current range spans from below one amp to several hundreds of amps in oil-cooled constructions, and Westek Electronics can provide tailor-made assemblies to suit virtually any application.

Modular Powerstax DC Power supplies  

• Stacking, modular DC-DC and AC-DC power supplies that are easily customised.
• Configurations comprising of 6-slot and 4-slot mainframe including AC/DC inputs
• Adjustable voltage ranges from 1.5 VDC to 3.6 VDC at the low end and up to 28 to 58 VDC
• High power efficiency, handling up to 1200 watts supplied with EMC filtering

Surge diverters

• Field-mounted Zymax lightning and surge barriers designed to fit onto spare gland holes on most commercially available 2-, 3- and 4-wire process control transmitters.
• Wide bandwidth devices for field bus installations.
• High current gas arrestors rated at 20 kA.  

Pure sine-wave DC to AC Inverters 

• Single-phase medium to high power, high efficiency  DC to AC inverters provide users with very low distortion sine wave outputs with a voltage THD of less than 3%, including even the low power units rated at 200 Watts.
• IGBT half-bridge, full bridge and three-phase inverter cards for applications including traction, UPS, variable speed drives, battery chargers and industrial frequency converters.
