Remote
Control Interface
The 500A, 102A, 152A, 202A power supplies feature a common interface,
via a 15pin D-type female connector located on the rear panel of the unit. The table below
shows details of the function and the pin-out for the connector.
|
PIN |
SIGNAL NAME |
I/O |
DESCRIPTION |
|
1 |
ENABLE/RESET |
INPUT |
A high signal (+10 to 15V) with respect to ground (pin 14)
will enable the power supply. Latching faults can be cleared
by cycling this switch. Ground or open disables the supply. |
|
5 |
V PROGRAM |
INPUT |
A 0-10V signal with respect to ground at this pin programs
the output voltage proportionally from zero to rated output. |
|
7 |
VPEAK |
OUTPUT |
A 0-10V signal (with respect to ground) proportional to the
peak of the output charging voltage. Can be used to drive a
meter displaying peak output voltage. |
|
8 |
VANALOG |
OUTPUT |
0-10V analog of output charging voltage waveform (+/- 1%). |
|
10 |
INHIBIT |
INPUT |
A +10 to 15V with respect to ground, disables the unit.
Open or ground allows operation. This input can be used to
disable charging during HV switch recovery. |
|
9, 11 |
+15V |
OUTPUT |
15V regulated. Can be used for user programming
applications 20mA max. |
|
14 |
GND |
OUTPUT |
Control circuit return. Also chassis/earth ground |
|
15 |
INHIBIT LED |
OUTPUT |
Open collector. Indicates that the power supply is
receiving an INHIBIT signal. |
|
13 |
EOC LED |
OUTPUT |
Open collector. Indicates that the power supply is reaching
end-of-charge, i.e. the V PROGRAM set point. |
|
3, 6 |
SUMMARY FAULT LED |
OUTPUT |
Open collector. Indicates an output overvoltage.
Temperature fault or low input voltage condition. |
|
2 |
LOAD FAULT LED |
OUTPUT |
Indicates a shorted O/P or a very large load capacitor. |
|
|
HV Output
The HV output connector on all oil insulated units is a proprietary
ALE design. A standard 10ft high voltage cable is supplied which is
terminated at the power supply end only. If the supply is operated
at voltages above 20kV and 200Hz rep rate it is recommended that a
silicone grease such as Dow Corning DC-4 is applied to the cable
termination before insertion in the supply. Greasing should be
repeated to ensure as much air as possible is displaced from the
connector.
Mechanical Details
The 500A, 102A, 152A, 202A
power supply are packaged in an OEM style 'shoebox' chassis with the
following external dimensions.

Options |
| OMIT |
Standard non-PFC input section |
LH |
"Low
Inhibit" - A + 10 to 15 volt (high) signal
will allow power supply operation. A 0 to +1.5 (low)
signal will inhibit the supply. |
| PFC |
Active electronic PFC |
EN |
"Low
Enable" - A + 10 to 15 volt (high) signal
will disable power supply operation. A 0 to +1.5
volt (low) signal will enable the supply. |

LP |
Latching Overload Protection.
Supply will latch off, requiring a reset if an overload
condition occurs. |

Safety Approvals
The 500A, 102A, 152A power supplies are safety approved by UL and TUV. All
of the standard supplies with output voltages between 1kV and 40kV with or
without active PFC are certified by both UL and TUV to meet the safety
requirements of UL2601-1, and EN60601-1 with the following
exceptions.
1. Conducted RFI to be assessed in the installed application.
2. IEC601-1 approved isolation transformer required to meet leakage
current.
3. Certain programming options listed may not be covered by the safety
agency certificates and may require additional time and cost.
