HIPOTRONICS high power ranges of supplies are either air or oil insulated. There are numerous protection features provided in these power supplies including input and backup breakers, adjustable overload relay (10-110% of rated current), fast overload sensor, zero-start interlock plus provision for external safety interlock, current-limiting resistor in output circuit, output shorting solenoid (and/or stiff resistive bleeders) and fuse or circuit breaker protection of controls. Standard high power supplies are available from 1kW to 50kW and 1kV to 300kV and are furnished with shielded coaxial output cable. Rated current is available from zero to maximum voltage and all power supplies feature solid-state rectifiers, meter calibration, surge/transient protection of meters, relays and voltage regulators. Controls include a meter polarity-reversing switch in addition to input power and overload circuits.
Zero start interlock ensures that the voltage control is at zero before HV can be energized
Adjustable Overload from 10 to 110% of rated current output
Backup Breaker overload safety situation
Continuously adjustable test voltage from zero to rated voltage
Output Connected voltmeter and ammeter
Shielded output cable
Shorting solenoid grounds output cable and object under test
NOTE: The time required for the output to rise from zero to rated voltage is optional and may be 15, 30, or 60 seconds.(Rated speed (V/s) is the rated voltage divided by the rise time.)
