Description:
The Sirius 3 is part of our range of 19 inch rack mounted HV Power Supply units that are suitable for a wide scope of applications. Running at 1800W (1.8kW) and with an output voltage range of 0-60kV the Sirius is a versatile power supply. The unit has the output current and voltage displayed on two digital meters on the front panel.
Output control is achieved using two multi-turn potentiometers and a HV ON/OFF switch, also mounted on the front panel.
The unit is supplied in a 19″ rack mounted housing that is suitable for standard cabinets.

Protection
Short circuit protection | The output current will be limited to the set value when operating in the current limit mode. This will protect the circuit from excessive current output. |
---|---|
Spark protection | When the power supply experiences a spark on load, the output will be switched off momentarily.After which, it will be restored automatically. |
Over-current protection | The current limiting circuit will reduce the output to a safe level when the output current exceeds rated current. |
Controls
The front panel allows adjusting the output voltage and current by two 10 turns potentiometers. There are also two D connectors on the rear panel with RS232 and RS458 serial communication.
