Description
Standard Power SPS 120-15 DC Power Supply 15V 8A 115/230VAC 01-101559-00 E
The Standard Power SPS 120-15 is an open-frame linear DC power supply made by Standard Power, Inc. of Santa Ana, California. It converts 115V or 230V AC mains input into a regulated 15V DC output at up to 8.0 amps, making it suitable for industrial equipment, laboratory instruments, and custom electronic systems that require a stable single-rail DC supply. The design uses a laminated iron-core transformer, a large Mallory electrolytic filter capacitor, and TO-3 power transistors mounted to a substantial blue anodized aluminum heatsink for thermal management.

Applications
Open-frame linear power supplies like the SPS 120-15 are used in industrial control systems, laboratory instruments, telecommunications equipment, and custom OEM electronics where a clean, regulated DC rail is needed. The wide input frequency range of 47–440 Hz makes this unit compatible with both standard 50Hz and 60Hz mains as well as aircraft or generator power systems running at non-standard frequencies. The 15V DC output at 8A suits a range of analog circuits, relay systems, and instrumentation requiring a mid-voltage supply. Standard Power, Inc. was a Santa Ana, California-based manufacturer that produced open-frame and enclosed linear power supplies primarily for OEM and industrial applications from the 1970s through the 1990s — this unit's construction style and Mallory capacitor date it to that era. Open-frame units like this are commonly used as replacement or service spares in legacy industrial and test equipment originally fitted with Standard Power supplies.
This Standard Power SPS 120-15 DC power supply has been bench-tested at our facility and tests good. Applying 115 VAC to the 1/3 and 2/4 input terminals produces the rated 15 VDC output on the V+/S+ and S-/V- terminals. The blue anodized aluminum heatsink and TO-3 power transistors show normal use wear. The large Mallory electrolytic filter capacitor and transformer are intact and show no obvious damage. The circuit board and terminal wiring are clean. Cosmetic wear is consistent with bench or industrial use. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
