ERX, ERC SERIES
3kW High Voltage Power Supply
Description
The ERX-10kV, 3.3-15 kW standard ebeam power supplies are switch-mode units incorporating the latest in high frequency, high power switching technology. Each power level of this 10 kV family of power supplies is neatly packaged in a single rack-mountable chassis with approximate dimensions of 10 1/2” H x 19” W (max) x 22” Deep. These robust power supplies were designed to use modularity for ease of field maintenance.
Features
- Highly Frequency IGBT Switching Technology
- Power Factor Correction
- Integrated Filament Regulation
- Emission Current Regulation
- Arc Management
- Air Insulated High Voltage Section
- Low Stored Energy
- Air Cooled Chassis
- Light Weight
- Instrumented Front Panel
- Remote Controlled Operation
- CE Approved Design
Operation of the power supplies can be accomplished locally via the front
panel controls or remotely via the rear panel control connector J4. Three
additional jacks (J5A, J5B and J5c) are provided for interface to external
source modules. J-4 is a 25 Pin D connector while each of the J-5 connectors
is a 9Pin D type.
Certain commands or signal are operative in both modes. For example, the
local HV OFF/RESET pushbutton switch is operative in both local and remote
modes.
UVC’s are management options are designed with the challenges of Thin
Film Deposition in minds. Our solid-state ebeam power supplies can be configured
for rapid arc detection with typical shutdown in <25us. Arc quenching
mode with recovery time as fast as 5ms, or arc counting where excessive
arcing results in latched fault to allow the HVPS to ride through expected
process arcs, but maintain the ability to react to unexpected transient
conditions.
It should be noted any of the models in the standard 6-10-15kW series could
be customized to suite an end-user’s unique specifications. Typical
options are:
- Customized Control Panels
- Filament Power Supplies
- One and two gun Filament Modules
- Specialized Metering
- Bias Supplies
- Auxiliary Gun Conversion Kits
