GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
.The Optima-850 CAMAC power supply, which Is designed for use with the CAMAC Modular Instrumentation and Interfacing System f or Data Handling, Is comprised of three basic units: the crate, the power supply, and the blower drawer. Unless specified otherwise In this manual, the physical and the electrical specifications of the Optima 800 meet or exceed the requirements of a Type CP-1 power supply and ESONE report EUR 4100e.
Construction features Include the use of steel and precision cast-aluminum upper and lower racks to provide a heavy-duty crate assembly capable of long, trouble-free use. In addition, only the best components are employed throughout to assure high operational reliability. The power supply's modular construction provides ease of maintenance and minimum downtime.
The precision construction of the crate allows CAMAC modules to be Inserted and removed while the power supply is on, therefore minimizing downtime for the replacement of defective modules.
All outputs of the power supply are protected for both overvoltage and overcurrent. No damage to the power supply occurs as the result of a continuous short-circuit condition. Thermal warning and thermal cut-off switches protect the power supply should the Internal temperature exceed a safe limit.
Optional features include a +/-12V output, a voltage monitor that provides a status bit whenever any output voltage deviates from the normal output level, and 100 V or 230 V operation.
SPECIFICATIONS: Outputs: +/-6 V @ 0 A to 50 A, current shared to 50 A total +/-24 V @ 0 A to 6 A, current shared to 9 A total +/-12 V @ 0 A to 3 A, current shared to 24 V output Output Power: 500 W to 50 degrees C (233 degrees F), conservatively rated Input: 115 V +10%/-12% V ac, 60 Hz 230 V +10%/-12% Vac, 47 Hz to 64 Hz (optional) 230 V +10%/-12% ac, 47 Hz to 64 Hz Regulation: line and load +/-0.1% for +/-6 V and +/-24 V outputs, 0.5% for +/-12 V output Ripple and Noise:10 mV peak to peak, 50-MHz bandwidth Transient Recovery: 50 microseconds typical Temperature Coefficient: 0.02% per degree C maximum Long-Term Stability: less than 0.2% for 24 h after 1-hour warmup (constant ambient temperature) Overload Protection: both overvoltage and overcurrent protection on all outputs Thermal Protection: both heat sinks sensed for over-temperature on the front panel of the blower. Over-temperature sensors on the heatsinks cut off power. Fuses/Circuit Breakers: fuses on all pass transistors and circuit breaker or fuses on main ac power lines Remote Sensing: on +/-6 V, +/-24 V outputs Metering: +/-6 V, +/-24 voltages and currents Test Jacks: all output voltages Status-Bit Monitor (optional): monitors all outputs and thermal over-temperature and provides relay contact closure when limits are exceeded Blower Air Flow: over 300 cubic ft /min with unloaded crate Weight: 88 lb Size: 22.4 inches wide x 12.3 Inches high x 21.6 inches deep (see Drawing No. 106809)
