Dual-Output High Voltage Capacitor Charging Power Supply

Advanced Energy’s UltraVolt Dual Polarity C series of regulated DC-DC power supplies is designed for high-voltage capacitor charging applications that demand fast charging rates and limited voltage overshoot, such as pulsed power, ultrasound, amplifiers, and pulse generators. Included in the series are seven dual-output models ranging from ±125 to ±6,000 VDC of maximum high-voltage power. Each pair offers both a positive and negative polarity in a single package. From a 24 VDC input, access up to 250 W of total fast-rise charging power with less than 1% overshoot. Each output is individually controlled using an analog interface. Meet specific application needs by selecting mechanical integration options.

Features

• Fast-rise charging power delivered from an optimized design
• Limited overshoot, typically less than 1% of high voltage setpoint, depending on the application
