Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service,
and repair of this instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or specic WARNINGS given
elsewhere in this manual will violate safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of
the instrument.
Delta assumes no liability for the customer‘s failure to comply with these requirements.
BEFORE APPLYING POWER
Verify that the product is set to match with the line voltage.
PROTECTIVE GROUNDING
Make sure to connect the protective grounding to prevent an electric shock before turning on the
power.
NECESSITY OF PROTECTIVE GROUNDING
Never cut o󰀨 the internal or external protective grounding wire, or disconnect the wiring of protective
grounding terminal. Doing so will cause a potential shock hazard that may bring injury to a person.
FUSES
Only fuses with the required rated current, voltage, and specified type (normal blow, time delay,
etc.) can be used. Do not use di󰀨erent fuses or short-circuited fuse holders. To do so might cause a
shock or re hazard.
DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of ammable gases or fumes.
DO NOT REMOVE THE COVER OF THE INSTRUMENT
Operating personnel must not remove the cover of the instrument. Component replacement and
internal adjustment can be done by qualied service personnel only.
When install or take off external terminals with hazard voltage, AC input voltage must be cut
off or take action to make safety isolation.

2. Installation
2.1 Inspection
First, inspect any damage that may have occurred during the shipment after
unpacking the instrument. Save all packing materials in case the instrument has to be
returned.
If any damage is found, please file a claim against the carrier immediately. Do not
return the instrument to the factory without obtaining the prior RMA acceptance from Delta.
2.2 Preparation for the Use
Before start using, the instrument must be connected with an appropriate AC line
input. As the instrument is cooled by fans, it must be installed in an area with sufficient
space for air circulation. It should be used in an area where the environment temperature
does not exceed 40°C.
2.3 Requirements of Input Power
2.3.1 Ratings
1. Input Voltage Range: 190-250 VLL, 3 phases 4 wires Δ (ABS A), or
329-433 VLL, 3 phases 5 wires Y (ABS B)
2. Input Frequency: 47-63Hz
3. Max. Current/Phase: 35 A / phase (ABS A) or 25A/phase (ABS B)
*** CAUTION ***
The AC source may be damaged if it is operated at an input voltage that is over
its congured input range.
2.3.2 Input Connection
The input terminal block is located on the instrument rear panel. The temperature
rating of the power cord must be at least 85°C; current rating must be greater than or equal
to the maximum current required for AC source under full load. Recommend to put a 40A
breaker (ABS A) (30A breaker (ABS B)) at AC input side.
There are two input voltage rating models, one is 380 VLL 3 phases 5 wires (Y
connection) used for (ABT B model), and the other is 220 VLL 3 phases 4 wires
(Δ connection) used for (ABT A model). Be careful to verify the model you have,
and make sure that the main voltage is suitable for the model! AC source may
not operate properly if one phase input voltage is missing, please recheck the
connection.

AC POWER SOURCE
See Figure 2.3.2.1~2.3.2.4 and do the following steps one by one:
1. Remove the safety cover at the back side of AC source.
2. Connect the AC input cables to the terminal blocks of the AC source as Figure 2.3.2.1/
2.3.2.3 shows.
3. Put safety cover back and make sure it does fully cover the AC input terminal.
4. Turn off AC power supply to AC source or make safety isolation before installing or
taking o󰀨 external terminal with hazard voltages.
!

WARNING
*** CAUTION ***
To protect operators the wire connected to the GND terminal must be connected
to the ground. Under no circumstances shall this AC source be operated without
an adequate ground connection.
Installation of the AC input power cord must be done by a professional personnel in
accordance with local electrical codes.

2.4 Output Connection
2.4.1 Output connection
Output connection is di󰀨erent for series or parallel operation, choose the correct one
before connecting. Connect the load wire to "COM" and "Φ1/Φ2" terminal as Fig. 2.5.1, 2.5.2
show. To meet the safety requirements the wires to the load must use gauges large enough
to prevent from overheating while carrying the output current.

USER MANUAL
A6000
AC POWER SOURCE
2.5 Remote Sense Connection
The AC source remote sense function monitors the load terminal voltage instead of
the AC source output terminal. It ensures the delivery of accurate voltage as programmed at
the load by compensating the output voltage drop over the connecting cable automatically.
You have to set Remote Sense ON so as to enable this function.
Connect the sensing wires from "Φ11/Φ22" and "COM" terminals to the load as
shown in Figure 2.5.1. As the sensing wires carry only a few milli- amperes, the wire
gauges are much smaller than the load cables. The sensing wires are part of the feedback
path of the AC source. They must be kept at a low resistance in order to maintain the best
performance. Connect the sensing wires carefully so that they will not be open-circuited.
If the sensing wires are left unconnected or become open-circuited during operation, the
AC source will disable the output. The sensing wires must be a twisted pair to minimize the
pickup of external noise. The sensing wires need to be connected as close to the load input
terminal as possible.

WARNING
*** CAUTION ***
Before turning on the instrument, all protective earth terminals, extension
cords, and devices connected to the instrument must be connected to a
protective ground. Any interruption of the protective grounding will cause a
potential shock hazard that might injure people.

2.6 The Procedures to Power-on
Connect the AC voltage, and turn on the power switch on the front panel. The AC
source will do a series of self-tests every time it is turned on. The LCD on the front panel
will light up and display as below under normal condition:
!

WARNING
*** CAUTION ***
1. Error messages will show on the LCD panel if error occurs during turn on
process. Please check section 3.7 for error code.
2. Digital circuit inside AC source may not operate properly if turn on AC source
immediately after turn off. Recommend to wait 10 seconds to turn on AC
source after it was turned o󰀨.

3. Local Operation
3.1 Introduction
The AC source can be congured to operate in local or remote mode. The operation
in remote mode through GPIB controller or RS-232C will be described in Chapter 6. This
chapter describes the operation in local mode through the keypad on the front panel for
data entry and test. If remote control cable are not connected, the AC source is congured
for local operation after AC switch is on.
LCD panel will show the self-test message as below after AC switch is on.
Then will enter main manual setting page as below. Default SET MODE is "Parallel"
means parallel output operation. Operator can set output voltage and frequency.
