|
The WK Series is a 500 watt regulated DC power supply offering output
voltage ranges to 125kV and an interesting "plus." Maximum current ratings are equivalent
to a 600W supply up to 84% of rated voltage! Panel height is only 5.25 inches and weight is less than
30 pounds. The WK Series is available with dual analog output meters or, optionally, with digital
meters or a blank panel for OEM/system applications.
Features
Extended
Current. WK Series models have maximum current ratings that are equivalent to a 600W supply. These
currents are available for all voltages up to 84% of rated output voltage. Above this point, current is
derated to maintain a constant 500W maximum output.
Pulse-Width Modulation. Off-the-line pulse-width modulation provides
high efficiency and a reduced parts count for improved reliability.
Constant Voltage/Constant Current Operation. Automatic crossover from
voltage to current regulation is used to provide protection from overloads, arcs, and short circuits.
Low Ripple. Ripple is less than 0.1% of rated voltage at full load.
Tight Regulation. Voltage regulation is better than 0.005%, line or
load, and current regulation is better than 0.1% from short circuit to rated voltage.
Front Panel Controls (Analog and Digital Versions.) Separate 10-turn
controls with locking vernier dials are used to set voltage and current levels. A high voltage enable 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.
Air insulated. For improved serviceability and decreased weight.
Small Size and Weight. WK Series power supplies consume only 5.25 inches
of panel height. Weight is 30 pounds typical.
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
(From 5% to 100% rated voltage. All units operate down to zero output with
very slight degradation of performance.)
Input: 102-132V RMS, 48-63Hz single phase, <10 A. Connector per IEC
320 with mating line cord terminated with NEMA 5-15 plug.
Efficiency: Typically 83% 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 <1% of rated. Accuracy is 0.25% of rated +1% of setting. Repeatability is <0.1%
of rated.
Stored Energy: 80kV: 9J, 100kV: 11J, 125kV: 14.5 J.
Voltage Regulation: <0.005%, line or load.
Ripple: <0.1% RMS of rated voltage at full load.
Current Regulation: <0.1% of full scale (rated current) from
short circuit to rated voltage.
Voltage Monitor: 0 to +10V DC for zero to rated voltage. Accuracy,
1% of reading + 1% of rated voltage.
Current Monitor: 0 to +10V DC for zero to rated current.
Accuracy, 1% of reading + 0.05% (0.1% for reversible model) of rated current.
Stability: 0.01% per hour after 1/2 hour warmup. 0.05% per 8
hours.
Output Voltage Rise/Decay Time Constant: Typically 400 ms rise
or decay time constant for 125kV model, using HV on/off or remote voltage control, with 15% resistive
load.
Temperature Coefficient: 0.01% per degree C.
Ambient Temperature: -20 to +40 degrees C, operating; -40
to + 85 degrees C, storage.
Polarity: Positive, negative, or reversible 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.
Accessories: Detachable 8-foot shielded HV coaxial cable (see
Model Chart for cable type) and 6-foot detachable line cord provided.
Remote Controls: Common, +10V reference, interlock, current
monitor, current program, voltage monitor, voltage program, HV enable/disable, and ground. Provided
on a rear panel mounted terminal block.
External Interlock: Open off, closed on. Normally latching
except on blank panel version where it is non-latching.
HV Enable/Disable: 0-1.5V off, 2.5-15V on.
