HF Series

3.5 kV Floating Microchannel Plate Power Supplies At Up To 30 kV Isolation

Applications: Microchannel plates for Mass Spectrometers & Electron Microscopes, Floating grid & bias voltages

These power supplies, based on the standard HP series are intended to power imaging detectors. They give 0 to +3.5kV and can be floated on voltages up to ±2.5kV (HFxx2.5), ±10kV (HFxx010), ±20kV (HFxx020) & ±30kV (HFxx030) and use differential feedback techniques to allow the 24 volt power, control and monitor signals to be at ground potential.
