The SY5527 is the fully equipped experiment version of a new line of power supply systems which represent CAEN’s latest proposal in the matter of High Voltage and Low Voltage Power Supplying. This system outlines a completely new approach to power generation and distribution by allowing the housing, in the same mainframe, of a wide range of boards with different functions, such as High/Low Voltage boards, generic I/O boards (temperature, pressure monitors, etc.) and branch controllers, where the latter are used to control other remote generators and distributors. Modularity, flexibility and reliability are the key-points of its design, enabling this module to meet the requirements needed in a wide range of experimental conditions. The mainframe is housed in a 19″-wide, 4U-high euro-mechanics rack and hosts four main sections:
the Board Section, with 6 slots to house boards, distributors and branch controllers; “Low cost” version with 4 slots is available (NEW)
the Fan Tray Section, housing 3 fans arranged on two rows, with programmable rotation speed regulation;
the CPU and Front Panel Section which includes all interface facilities.
the Power Supply Section, which consists of the primary power supply and up to 2 power supply units;
“Low cost” version has only the Primary power supply
The CPU controller is available in 3 different versions: BASIC, ADVANCED and FULL.
