Glassman High Voltage is a leading designer and manufacturer of High Voltage power supplies/DC power supplies for the High Voltage and Vacuum Process equipment market segments. A Glassman DC power supply can range in output from 15W-50kW with output voltages operating down to 50V thru 400kV.  A High Voltage power supply of this type can be offered in modular or Rack-mount configuration as well as special packaging to meet customer-specific mechanical requirements. Most Glassman DC power supplies are offered utilizing proprietary Air Insulation dielectric technology. Air poses numerous reliability and serviceability benefits in comparison to competing solid and liquid dielectric technologies.

Fully compliant with the European harmonized EMI directive, EN50082-2, and with the low voltage (safety) directive, 73/23/EEC. Line harmonics are within the European harmonized standard, EN61000-3-2 specifications.
  • 1 to 60kV, 1.75" Panel CE Compliant

The FC Series are sophisticated,120 Watt, high voltage power supplies in a small and lightweight package. They are air insulated, fast response units with tight regulation.
Features Specifications Options Models Outline


Features

Low Stored Energy. Most models exhibit less than 1 joule of stored energy.

Pulse-Width Modulation. Off-the-line-pulse-width modulation provides high efficiency and a reduced parts count for improved reliability.

Air Insulated. The FC Series features "air" as the primary dielectric medium. No oil or encapsulation is used to impede serviceability or increase weight.

Constant Voltage/Constant Current Operation. Automatic crossover from constant-voltage to constant-current regulation provides protection against overloads, arcs, and short circuits.

Low Ripple. Ripple is less than 0.02% of rated voltage at full load.

Tight Regulation. Voltage regulation is better than 0.005% for allowable line and load variations. Current regulation is better than 0.05% from short circuit to rated voltage.

Front Panel Controls. Separate 10-turn controls with locking vernier dials are used to set voltage and current levels. A high voltage enable (on) switch and an AC power on/off switch complete the panel controls. L.E.D.'s indicate when high voltage is on, the output polarity, and whether the supply is operating in a voltage or current regulating mode. For the blank panel version, only a power on/off switch is provided on the panel.

Remote Control Facilities. As standard, all FC Series supplies provide output voltage and current program/monitor signals, high voltage enable, safety interlock terminals, and a +10 volt reference source.

Small Size and Weight. FC Series power supplies occupy only 1.75 inches of panel height. Net weight is less than 12 pounds.

Warranty. Standard power supplies are warranted for three years; OEM and modified power supplies are warranted for one year. A formal warranty statement is available.


Specifications

(Specifications apply from 5 to 100% rated voltage. Operation is guaranteed down to 0% of rated voltage with a slight degradation of ripple, regulation, and stability.)

Input: 103-132V RMS standard, single-phase, 48-63Hz, <2.5A. Connector per IEC 320/VI with mating line cord terminated with NEMA 5-15 plug.

Efficiency: Typically 80% at full load.

Output: Continuous,stable adjustment, from 0 to rated voltage or current by panel mounted 10-turn potentiometers with 0.05% resolution, or by external 0 to 10V signals is provided. Linearity is <0.1% of rated. Accuracy is 0.1% of rated +0.5% of setting. Repeatability is <0.1% of rated.

Stored Energy: See Models chart.

Static Voltage Regulation: Better than 0.005% for specified line variations and 0.005% + 0.5 mV/mA for load variations.

Dynamic Voltage Regulation: For load transients from 10% to 100% and 100% to 10%, typical deviation is 2% of output voltage with recovery to within 1% in 500 µs and to 0.1% in 1 ms.

Ripple: <0.02% of rated voltage + 300 mV RMS at full load.

Current Regulation: Better than 0.05% from short circuit to rated voltage at any load condition.

Voltage Monitor: 0 to +10 V equivalent to 0 to rated voltage. Accuracy, 0.1% reading +0.5% rated.

Current Monitor: 0 to +10 V equivalent to 0 to rated current. Accuracy, 0.1% reading +0.5% rated.

Stability: 0.01% per hour after 1/2 hour  warmup, 0.05% per 8 hours.

Voltage Rise/Decay Time Constant: 400 ms typical with a 10% resistive load using either HV on/off or remote programming control.

Temperature Coefficient: 0.01% per degree C.

Ambient Temperature: -20 to +50 degree C, operating; -40 to +85 degree C, storage.

Polarity: Available with either positive, negative, or reversible polarity with respect to chassis ground.

Protection: Automatic current regulation protects against all overloads, including arcs and shorts. Fuses, surge-limiting resistors, and low energy components provide ultimate protection.

Remote Controls: A five position terminal block and a 15 Pin "D" connector are provided for all remote functions, including common, +10 V reference, interlock, voltage and current program/monitor, HV enable, ground, and local control. Arear panel toggle switch selects either local or remote operation.

External Interlock: Open off, closed on. Normally latching except for blank panel version where it is non-latching.

Remote HV Enable: 0-1.5 V off, 2.5-15 V on.

Accessories: Detachable 8 foot shielded high voltage coaxial cable (see Models chart for cable type), 6 foot detachable line cord and mating 15 Pin "D" connector and shell are provided.


Options

Symbol Description
100 90 to 110VRMS input, 48-400Hz. NEMA 5-15 Plug.
220 198 to 250VRMS input, 48-400Hz. NEMA 6-15 Plug.
