Description
Power-One HE15-9-A HE5-9-A International Series Linear Power Supply 15VDC 9A CE
The Power-One HE15-9-A is a single-output linear DC power supply from Power-One's International Series, rated at 15VDC at 9 amps (135W). It uses a linear regulation design built around a bank of pass transistors (four TO-3-package devices, Q1–Q4) mounted on the front panel, along with a large laminated-core transformer and filter capacitors — the hallmarks of this class of high-quality linear supply from the mid-1990s. The International Series designation indicates compliance with international safety and EMC standards for use in global markets.

Applications
Power-One's International Series linear power supplies were designed as modular component supplies intended for integration into larger OEM systems, laboratory instruments, and industrial equipment requiring a stable, low-noise DC source. Linear supplies of this type are favored over switchers in noise-sensitive applications such as analog instrumentation, audio equipment, communication systems, and precision measurement where switching noise would be problematic. The HE-series chassis-mount format allowed system integrators to install the supply directly into a rack or enclosure. Power-One, Inc. of Camarillo, California was a prominent manufacturer of linear and switching power supplies from the 1970s through the 2000s, and their International Series products were widely used in scientific, industrial, and telecommunications equipment during the 1980s and 1990s. Buyers today seek these supplies for legacy system maintenance, repair, and OEM replacement.
This Power-One HE15-9-A International Series Linear Power Supply is open box — it is new from the manufacturer but has been stored for an extended period, possibly past its shelf/expiration date, and was exposed to moisture during storage. The photos reflect this: transistor Q1's mounting hardware shows significant rust and corrosion, and there is degraded adhesive residue on the terminal block. The included Declaration of Conformity document and a partial spec sheet also show moisture damage (staining and wrinkling). This unit has not been powered or tested at our facility. Buyers should inspect carefully before use and assess whether corroded components require replacement. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
