UltaVolt Launches Euro-Size HV Cassette AC-DC Power Supplies

April 14, 2013 by Jeff Shepard

UltraVolt, Inc. announced today the launch of its new line of ac-dc regulated high-voltage converters in a convenient plug-in cassette format - the HCE Series. The new HCE line offers 11 models that provide outputs of 0 to 125Vdc through 35kVdc, at 0 to 7, 35, 140, or 350 watts of output power. HCE Series units are available with an input voltage of either 115Vac or 230Vac. The HCE Series modules are compatible with popular Euro cassette rack & 19” rack chassis. The HCE Series addresses the need for plug-in HV modules that allow the system designer to build out a rack chassis as needed.

These units feature design, manufacturing process, and encapsulation techniques that provide high reliability and offers indefinite High-voltage output short-circuit protection and arc protection. The digital ready analog remote control enables constant voltage/constant current control (CVCC) & mode monitoring as well as remote Enable / Disable control and monitors for measurement of output current and voltage. The front panel controls include an ac power switch, Local/Remote control switch and screwdriver set Constant Voltage/Constant Current Controls (CVCC) with LED mode indicators. A portable meter can be used via front panel pin jacks to measure output current and voltage.

Typically, HCE Series based systems are used by: Capital equipment designers who can select multiple modules to create sub-systems to operate process control, manufacturing, test & measurement ATE, and analysis machines for operating detectors, emitters, electrostatics, and actuators, and R&D system designers who can select multiple modules to develop optimized experiments, proof-of-concept equipment, and one-of-a-kind devices.

"UltraVolt is excited to expand our products for customers requiring a complete user configured HV solution", said James Morrison, CEO and Co-Founder. "The HCE series modules give users a good performance full function AC line operated High Voltage DC source that can be combined with other modules to operate equipment at many levels of complexity and enables our customers to get the job done; With this unit we continue Making High Voltage Easier® by meeting the needs of our customers' diverse applications."
