U20422 Used Astron VS-70M-AP Variable Heavy Duty Linear Power Supply 2-15Vdc/70A Peak

U20422 Used Astron VS-70M-AP Variable Heavy Duty Linear Power Supply 2-15Vdc/70A Peak

Overall Condition: Used, good physical and operational condition overall! Cosmetic Details: The black metal top cover panel exhibits visible surface scratches and handling marks. These cosmetic blemishes are purely aesthetic and do not affect performance. Front Panel & Meters: Features dual illuminated analog meters (Amperes and Volts), variable voltage and current adjustment knobs, front Anderson Powerpole DC output jacks (35A rated each), and a rocker power switch—all in great shape and fully functional. Rear Connections: Heavy-duty rear DC output binding posts, active cooling fan, fuse housing, and IEC AC power inlet are clean and solid. Comes complete with an AC power cord.

The Astron VS-70M-AP is a high-capacity linear DC power supply engineered for demanding amateur radio shacks, commercial base stations, and electronics benches. Delivering up to 57 Amps continuous output at 13.8 VDC (and up to 70 Amps peak), it provides clean, ultra-low-noise DC power ideal for high-power HF/VHF/UHF transceivers and linear amplifiers.

Featuring front-panel controls to adjust output voltage (2–15 VDC) and current limiting, precision dual analog meters for real-time monitoring, built-in foldback current limiting, and over-voltage protection, the VS-70M-AP is a high-power workhorse for any station.
