A superconducting intelligent magnet power supply.
Features
• Based on ±60 A modules with ±10 V compliance.
• Can be configured in parallel, series and matrix modes from the basic ±60 A with ±10 V output up to ±600 A with ±10 V or ±300 A with ±20 V output configurations.
• Communications support a full range of interface options (Ethernet, USB, RS232, and optional GPIB) with downloadable Mercury function library for LabVIEW.
• Quench protection and auto-rundown. The MercuryiPS can be programmed to run the magnet down safely in the event of magnet temperature rise, low cryogen levels or if triggered by an external TTL signal.
• The MercuryiPS has an on-board temperature sensor for diagnostic monitoring of the magnet temperature.
