Description
A shared lab works only when everyone finds the instrument in the same state. The Keysight N8738A DC power supply comes from the N8700 Series and delivers 80 V and 42 A from a single output, with a 3360 W rating. Lost in HCM lists it for rental and sale in Vietnam. It also arranges repair intake on request.
Running one supply for many users
Teaching labs and research groups often share a single source, so write simple house rules early. Record the users, the booking rules, the warm-up time and the connector care routine. In addition, keep the backup settings and an escalation contact on a card next to the unit. Then a new student or engineer can start safely without a long briefing.
Acceptance checklist on arrival
| Check | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Identity | Model and serial number match the quotation |
| Condition | Case, connectors and labels look intact |
| Startup and self-test | Power-on behavior and the self-test result |
| Options and accessories | Installed options and every cable the quotation lists |
| Communications | The remote interface talks to your software |
| Measurements | Representative readings at a safe operating point |
| Paperwork and packing | Calibration documents, if quoted, and the packing contents |
Run this list the day the unit arrives, because early problems are cheap to fix. However, if anything differs from the quotation, tell Lost in HCM before the project starts.
What the Keysight N8738A DC power supply offers
The listing describes an N8700 Series programmable system DC power supply with one output, so check the limits first. Maximum voltage is 80 V, while maximum current is 42 A. Since 80 V times 42 A equals 3360 W, the power rating matches the corner point. Treat that figure as a limit, and keep real test points inside it. Then confirm the AC-input option, the protection limits and the interfaces in the quotation.
Rent for a term, or buy for the lab
Rent the Keysight N8738A DC power supply for a research project, a training event or a validation campaign, because the need may end with the term. Buy when several groups will use the unit all year, so the cost spreads out. In either case, request a quote from Lost in HCM with your dates, site and accessories. Related units sit in the power supply category, and the Keysight website covers the maker. Questions about the listing? Contact SMK Vietnam.
N8738A questions
What should I check when the unit arrives?
Check identity, condition, start-up, self-test, options, accessories, communications and a representative measurement. Then compare the results with the quotation.
Does the 3360 W figure apply at every voltage?
No. It is a rated limit, so the real operating point must stay inside it. Also check your own test points on the Keysight data sheet.
Can the rental include calibration documents?
Ask Lost in HCM to itemize any calibration documents in the quotation, because this listing makes no promise about them.
