New USB Interface option for the “HV Rack” system

AMS Technologies has announced the availability of the new USB Interface option for the “HV Rack” system.

The “HV Rack” system with the USB interface option (USB-HV-RACK) enables users to control and monitor the system via a PC. The isolated interface is attached to the back of the system and is connected to the computer via a standard USB cable. A Windows application program supplied by UltraVolt is then used to control the “HV Rack” system.

With the USB interface option, the “HV Rack” system's voltage and current settings can be controlled remotely, giving the user greater ease of operation. The settings for voltage and current can be more precise because the user is able to type the exact set points into the programme.

After the voltage and current are set, these settings can be saved to a file to be restored whenever needed. The USB-HV-RACK interface uses 16-bit resolution for set points and monitors. This allows a 6kV UltraVolt power supply to be controlled and monitored with 0.1V resolution.

The “HV Rack” system is a one-to-four-channel, fully featured configurable chassis that enables end users to select and specify the UltraVolt high-voltage power supply operating in each channel from UltraVolt's catalogue of over 450 models. Voltages range from 0 to 62VDC through 40kV at 4W to 250W per channel. The “HV Rack” system also features independent monitoring of each channel, constant current/constant voltage auto-crossover, and universal AC power input.
