Adjustable 10,000-Volt Power Supply


New Products Sep 22, 2015 by Jeff Shepard

The McPherson high-voltage power supply series now features a 10,000-Volt configuration. The 10-kV model joins the already popular one, 2- and 5-kV versions. These laboratory power supplies have a number of uses including photomultiplier tubes, electron multipliers, microchannel plates and more; anything that benefits from a stable and adjustable high voltage supply.

Like existing models, the 10kV Model 7645 is highly-regulated and very stable. Voltage is set at the front panel by precise 10-turn potentiometer. The easy to read 4.5-digit LCD display allows users to confidently set and deliver high voltage levels with 0.001% p-p regulation. The instrument rear panel features a scaled analog input for remote control and a current monitor output.

"The high voltage power supply series was specifically engineered to produce regulated, low noise, high voltage for sensitive, high gain detectors in spectroscopy systems," explains D. M. Schoeffel for McPherson. How is that possible? "It was years in the making," explains Schoeffel. "Incremental revisions and hundreds of hours of testing in complex systems result in a proven, trouble free product."

The new Model 7645 10,000 Volt power supply operates sensitive photomultiplier tubes and related devices for critical photometric and spectroscopy applications. It is a proven reliable, stable source of high voltage. The Model 7645 10-kV power supply is the largest in this series of power supplies.
