The Labworks PA-151 Linear Power Amplifier is a high quality, convection-cooled, direct-coupled audio amplifier primarily intended for use with small vibration systems. Although this amplifier has been designed to directly drive low impedance loads, it can be used in any application requiring continuous duty, high quality, audio power.

PA-151 Amplifiers feature protection from both over current and over temperature insuring long term reliability. The amplifier circuitry uses soft start technology for load protection and has external interlock capabilities as well as output voltage and current bar graphs. A front panel switch allows configuring the output circuitry as either a low impedance voltage source or high impedance current source. A voltage-proportional-to-output-current output signal is provided for modal test and other applications requiring force monitoring. A unique dynamic output drive circuit provides high random peak output current for increased random and shock vibration system performance.
