Operation – Auxiliary Output

Output Voltage

The output voltage can be set between 1.5V and 5.0V using the front panel rotary adjustment beside the centre terminals. With the right-hand main output OFF, pressing the SHOW AUX PRESET button will display the AUX output voltage and current limit on the right-hand meters.

Current Limit

The output will go into current limit above 2A; the UNREG lamp lights in this condition.

Protection

The output has intrinsic short-circuit protection and is protected from reverse voltages by a diode; the continuous reverse current must not exceed 3 Amps, although transients can be much higher.

The output is protected against external forward voltages up to 16 Volts.

Operation - General

Connections

All connections are made from the front panel.

The load should be connected to the positive (red) and negative (black) terminals marked OUTPUT. Both are fully floating and either can be connected to ground.

The terminal marked is connected to the chassis and safety earth ground.

Series or Parallel Connection with Other Outputs

The outputs of the power supply are fully floating and may be used in series with other power supply units to generate high DC voltages up to 300V DC.

The maximum permissible voltage between any terminal and earth ground () is 300VDC; the maximum permissible voltage between either terminal of one output and any terminal of another output on the same supply is also 300VDC.

WARNING! Such voltages are exceedingly hazardous and great care should be taken to shield the output terminals for such use. On no account should the output terminals be touched when the unit is switched on under such use. All connections to the terminals must be made with the power switched off on all units.

It should be noted that the unit can only source current and cannot sink it, thus units cannot be series connected in anti-phase.

The unit can be connected in parallel with others to produce higher currents. Where several units are connected in parallel, the output voltage will be equal to that of the unit with the highest output voltage setting until the current drawn exceeds its current limit setting, upon which the output will fall to that of the next highest setting, and so on. In constant current mode, units can be connected in parallel to provide a current equal to the sum of the current limit settings.

Ventilation

The power supply can generate significant heat at full power. The supply relies on convection cooling only and it is therefore important that ventilation is never restricted if performance and safety are to be maintained.
