The DP130K-0-0092HV combines 0–130 kV with 0–9.2 mA and a rated power of 1.2 kW. It thus provides headroom for larger high-voltage setups in which both the applied voltage and the load current play a role.
Interesting tasks include testing insulation components, conducting electrostatic process tests, and operating material test benches that require high DC voltages. The adjustable power supply facilitates the comparison of different operating points. The load profile and required protection functions should be consistent with the device specifications.
The DP-HV series combines constant-voltage and constant-current control with intuitive local or external operation. LED indicators and precision rotary controls facilitate setup and monitoring directly on the unit. Standard models and custom designs up to 300 kV are available for electrostatic applications, material testing, and industrial test setups.
Analog 0 … 10V control and measurement interfaces are included as standard equipment. When ordered with RS485, Modbus RTU handles digital communication instead of analog I/O. The standard interlock loop is retained in this version as well.
| Connectivity | Analog 0 … 10V control and measured value feedback are standard. Optional RS485 with Modbus RTU instead of analog I/O. The interlock loop remains intact. |
| Functionality | Constant-voltage and constant-current (CV/CC) operation with automatic switching. Local operation or external control. |
| Output configuration | Grounded output with positive or negative high voltage, depending on the version ordered. No remote measurement. |
| Safety | Protection against overvoltage, overcurrent, and overtemperature, as well as current limiting in the event of a short circuit. Standard interlock loop. |
| Accuracy | Voltage and current settings and display: ±0.5% FS, ±2 digits resolution; other specifications are listed by model. |
High Voltage in the Right Format
For laboratory workstations and racks
Illustration of a DP-HV power supply unit. cabinet and the connection configuration depend on the selected model.
The DP-HV series combines high output voltages with compact enclosures. A temperature-dependent fan control system adjusts cooling to match operating conditions. Depending on the model, the units can be used as freestanding units or mounted in a rack. The required rack mounts are included with the unit.
| Models up to and including 80 kV | 19-inchcabinet, typically 2.5U |
| Models rated from 80 kV up to and including 120 kV | 19-inchcabinet, typically 3U |
| Models rated above 120 kV | 19-inchcabinet, typically 3.5U |
The dimensions of the selected model are critical for installation planning. Custom versions may vary. The maximum values for the series include customer-specific units and cannot be achieved simultaneously with every standard model.
Full control over your testing process
Controlling High Voltage from a PC
Representative image of the software for the DP-HV series.
A simple Windows control software program is included with the DP-HV series and supports operation via the optional RS485 interface. Using Modbus RTU, you can set setpoints and read actual values. The documented protocol also makes it easier to integrate the system into your own test programs.
Tailor Protection to the Load
The output rectifier stage already provides basic protection against same-polarity reverse currents within the device’s permissible limits. For high-energy loads or reverse voltage transients, a suitable additional protective circuit must be provided. The power supply is not an energy sink with unlimited capacity. In particular, when switching off inductive loads and when discharging capacitors, current, voltage, and load energy must remain within the agreed limits.
Connection options
Analog Integration or Modbus Connection
Illustration of the back panel. The pin assignment depends on the configuration ordered.
Analog I/O (Standard)
Using 0 … 10 V signals, you can set the output voltage and output current and read their actual values. Four active-low open-collector outputs indicate voltage mode, current mode, error status, and the HV output status. A +15 V auxiliary reference with a maximum load capacity of 50 mA completes the interface.
Interlock Loop (Standard)
The loop on pins 9 and 10 is also present in models equipped with RS485. In local operation, a closed loop enables the output, while an open loop disables it. In remote operation, the loop controls the output externally. The operating and connection requirements for the ordered model are described in the manual.
RS485 with Modbus RTU (optional)
The digital version replaces the analog I/O. Analog setpoint input, measured value feedback, status outputs, and auxiliary reference are then not available in parallel. The interlock loop remains intact. This allows the external output enable to be used even in a digitally controlled test stand.
