How to get more power from my FP-TB-10?

I have a FP-TB-10 module with two FP-AO-V5 and one FP-AO-V10 analog outputs. I'm using them as a voltage sources for a small heaters that I use in my research work. However,  I would like to increase the power that I use and I do know if I can connect in serie two analog aoutputs to get more power or if I need to look for another field point device. Do you have some Ideas?
 
Thanks

Hi,
If you need variable voltage, I would connect an analog output (+-10V) to a programming input of a powersupply, e.g. some Kepco types provide this. I'm using a RKW 12 -27K and some BOP models, which I control with an analog output channels of daqcards.
Check this out:

Or you control your heaters using fix voltage power supplies which you switch through digital output with adequate optocouplers and power relais connected (cheaper solution)

Ciao,
Olli
