2.1.1. Output Features

  • Robust Power Conversion Topology - All MagnaDC programmable DC power supplies utilize high-frequency IGBT-based power processing in current-fed topology. This topology adds an additional stage over the conventional voltage-fed topology for enhanced control and system protection, ensuring that even under a fault condition, the power supply will self-protect. Due to the self-protecting characteristics of this topology, the possibility of fast rising current spikes and magnetic core saturation is elimated. Every power supply is tested at 90% to 125% nominal line to ensure satisfactory operation even under the worst line voltage conditions.

  • Fast Transient Response - Quick response to load changes, with 2 ms to recover within ±1% of regulated output with a 50% to 100% or 100% to 50% step load change.

  • Programmable Output Protection - Programmable over voltage trip (OVT) and over current trip (OCT) allow the user to program in soft latching fault trips when the threshold is exceeded. OVT and OCT settings can be programmed from 10% to 110% of the unit’s max ratings.

  • Wired Remote Sensing with Smart Detection - A set of remote sensing terminals are provided to sense voltage at the load and compensate for voltage drop in the load cables. Compensation is provided up to 3% above the unit’s max rated voltage.

  • Leadless Remote Sensing - Using the product’s integrated modulation functionality, automatically compensate for voltage as a function of current. When the impedance between the power supply and load is known, this feature allows for remote sensing without leads, up to the max ratings of the product.

2.1.2. Programming Features

  • High Accuracy Programming and Measurment - ± 0.075% of max rated voltage or current programming accuracy to ensures the output is following the desired programmed set point. ± 0.2% of max rated voltage or current readback accuracy ensures high accuracy measurements. A NIST traceable calibration certificate is provided at no charge with all new units.

  • Simultaneous Measurement Interfaces - Voltage and current measurements are available simultaneously from the front panel meters, dedicated 0-10V analog output, and by computer command.

  • SCPI Remote Programming API - Compatible with the Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI), allowing raw ASCII text commands to control all features, functions, and configurations of the product. Commands are consistent across all available interfaces.

  • 37-pin External User I/O Port - An isolated 37-pin external user I/O port is provided, which includes a variety of analog and digital inputs and outputs. Voltage, current, over voltage and over current set points can be set by applying a 0-10V analog signal. Each diagnostic condition is given a designated pin, which reads +5V when active. Reference +5V and +10V signals are provided, eliminating the need for external voltage signals and allowing the use of dry contacts. All these pins are isolated from the output terminals and referenced to earth-ground as standard—no additional isolation equipment or options necessary.

2.1.3. System Features

  • AC Mechanical Contactor with In-rush Limiter - An integrated mechanical contactor on the AC input circuit ensures the product is not processing power when in standby or fault. This contactor, coupled with step-start in-rush limiter circuitry, ensures no in-rush current will exceed peak input current rating of the product.

  • Designed for Safety - Extensive diagnostic functions are provided, including: AC phase loss (not on SL/XR Series), excessive thermal conditions, over voltage trip (programmable), over current trip (programmable), cleared fuse (not on SL/XR Series), excessive program line voltage, and interlock fault. A dedicated +5V interlock input pin and included +5V reference on all models, external emergency stop systems can be easily integrated using an external contact.

  • High-Performance Plug and Play Master-Slaving - Power capability can easily expanded with additional units by using the plug and play UID47 master-slaving device. In the MagnaDC master-slave scheme, the master sends gate drive signals directly to the slave units. This strategy eliminates the noise suceptibility commonly found when sending analog control references over long distances, in addition to enabling consistent performance by maintaining a single control loop.

  • Tailor Performance with Integrated Options - A variety of configured-to-order options are available for MagnaDC programmable power supplies are designed to be flexible, depending on the application’s requirements.

  • Designed and Manufactured in the USA - For complete control of quality, MagnaDC programmable DC power supplies are designed and manufactured at Magna-Power’s vertically integrated USA manufacturing facility in Flemington, New Jersey. Heat-sinks and chassis are machined from aluminum. All sheet metal is fabricated and powder coated in-house. Magnetics are wound-to-order from validated designs based on a model’s voltage and current. An automated surface-mount production line places components on printed circuit boards for control, driver, auxiliary power, and display circuits. And finally after assembly, products undergo comprehensive test and NIST-traceable calibration, followed by an extended burn-in period.

2.2. Models

The following tables list the available models in the TS Series MagnaDC power supply. Ripple is specified for standard models. Ripple will be higher for models with the High Slew Rate Output (+HS). Low voltage, high current models have a size size and input current rating that differ from the rated specifications for models within the same power level. Efficiency is measured at the model’s maximum ratings.

As illustrated, TS Series MagnaDC power supply are comprised of either master or master/slave modules. Master and slave modules have a power ratings of 5 kW, 10 kW, 15 kW, 20 kW (4U), or 25 kW (4U). One module is required for 5 kW to 15 kW models, and one module is required for 20 kW to 25 kW 4U models with 380/415 Vac and 440/480 Vac 3-phase input. Two modules are required for 20 kW to 25 kW 6U models with 208/240 Vac 3-phase input, as well as for 30 kW to 50 kW models. Three modules are required for 75 kW models and four modules are required for 100 kW models. TS Series MagnaDC power supply have a number of shared feedback loops to ensure balance between modules. The details of the modules are described below.

2.5.1. Master Module

Power is fed through AC fuses and is distributed to the driver board, inrush limiter, and main 3φ contactor. The driver board contains a switching power supply and supplies power to the other printed circuit boards in the system. The inrush limiter is a step start device which is used to initially charge capacitors on the input DC bus and limit the inrush of current. The inrush limiter is initiated when the power supply is switched from a standby to a power state. After the charge cycle, the main 3φ contactor is energized and power is allowed to flow to the load. The optional EMI filter filters common mode and differential mode noise emanating from the supply.

Output power is controlled through a polyphase chopper. For the 15 kW master module, three choppers, phased 120° apart, provide a current source to a current fed inverter. The 10 kW TS uses two choppers, phased 180° apart, and the 5 kW supply uses only one chopper. The choppers are controlled with current mode, pulse width modulation (PWM). This modulation scheme provides a quick response for transients and filtering harmonics on the DC bus. As illustrated, chopper output current is monitored for balancing and for sensing overload current conditions. The polyphase chopper has been engineered to eliminate harmonic components minimizing currents circulating in the power supply.

The polyphase chopper produces a controlled DC bus which is connected to DC link inductors and current fed, IGBT medium frequency link inverter. The inverter, which operates at 400 Hz to 600 Hz, excites the main transformer at higher than normal line frequencies. This operation produces ohmic isolation between the input and output of the power supply using a transformer of dramatically reduced size.

The inverter operates with a 50% duty cycle and its frequency of operation is transparent to the performance of the power supply.

The output of the main power transformer is converted to DC via rectifiers. Low voltage versions of the TS Series power supply use midpoint diode configurations and higher voltage versions use bridge configurations.

The DC output voltage is filtered with a pie section filter. This, in combination with the DC link inductors, form a double stage inductive capacitive (LC) filter.

The gate driver board supports a synchronized modulation scheme which integrates power semiconductor switching of the switching power supply, polyphase chopper, and medium frequency link inverter.

The fuse/phase detector senses input line voltage on each phase and continuity of each fuse. Upon detection of a problem, the control board is signaled to shutdown the system. The control board, which is referenced to earth ground, contains optically isolated amplifiers to sense output voltage and current. This circuitry allows the output to be referenced ±1000 Vdc above earth ground.

The display board contains light-emitting diodes for displaying diagnostic conditions and provides an interface for meters and switches.

2.5.2. Slave Module

The slave module is very similar to the master module. Like the master module, output power is controlled through a polyphase chopper. For the 15 kW, 20 kW, and 25 kW slave modules, three choppers, phased 120° apart, provide a current source to the current fed inverter. The 10 kW TS power supply uses two choppers, phased 180° apart, and the 5 kW supply uses only one chopper.

The choppers are controlled with current mode, pulse width modulation (PWM) from signals derived from the master module gate driver board. The second set of chopper signals are displaced 60° from the first set of chopper signals in the master module. Together, 30 kW, 40 kW, 50 kW, 75 kW, and 100 kW models have six chopper modules phased 60° apart. The current fed inverter in the slave module uses the same driver signals as the master module.

The slave module’s diagnostic features are coordinated with the master module to provide high performance with virtually any combination of modules. Balance between chopper currents is insured by independent sampling and feedback control. Power supply, chopper, and inverter modules are synchronized to avoid instabilities at different operating points.

2.6. Options

2.6.1. Blocking Diode (+BD)

The integrated Blocking Diode (+BD) option provides an internally heat-sunk protection diode on the positive output terminal of a MagnaDC programmable DC power supply. This diode protects the product’s output from reverse voltage up to 1200 Vdc. All voltage sensing is performed after the protection diode—at the product’s output terminals—making the diode’s operation completely transparent to the performance of the power supply.

The +BD option is recommended for applications where there is significant back-emf or the possibility of a DC output voltage that could exceed the power supply’s output voltage rating, such as:

  • DC motor drives

  • Battery and capacitor charging

  • Large electromagnets

In these applications, the integrated blocking diode can be used to prevent back-emf from the energy stored in the load into the power supply’s output. Furthermore, the integrated blocking diode will prevent the power supply’s internal bleed resistance from discharging the energy storaged in the load when the power supply is off or in standby.

Availability

The +BD option is available for models with maximum output voltage rating as specified for the following product series:

  • TS Series, models rated from 100 Vdc to 1000 Vdc

  • MT Series, models rated from 125 Vdc to 1000 Vdc

Note

The +BD option cannot be combined with the +ISO option.

2.6.2. High Isolation Output (+ISO)

Certain applications require floating the output voltage to values beyond the power supply isolation rating. Magna-Power’s High Isolation Output Option (+ISO) enables a TS Series or MT Series model with a peak output voltage rating of 250 Vdc through 1000 Vdc to be rated for a higher voltage output isolation. Improved isolation is achieved by a novel output stage with improved controller isolation. In addition to being able to float the power supply to a higher output voltage, this option also enables lower voltage units to be tied together in series up to its new higher isolation rating, in accordance with the table in the Specifications section below.

Availability

The +ISO option is available for models with maximum output voltage rating as specified for the following product series:

  • TS Series, models rated from 250 Vdc to 1000 Vdc

  • MT Series, models rated from 250 Vdc to 1000 Vdc

Note

The +ISO option cannot be combined with the +BD or +WC options.

Note

Addition of the +ISO option will cause the product’s wired remote sense feature to be removed.

2.6.3. High Slew Rate Output (+HS)

The High Slew Rate Output (+HS) solves several limitations inherent in switching power supply design. Rapid voltage transitions require internal electronics to supply the energy to charge and discharge output capacitors. Peak currents internal to the power supply define slew rate; utilizing less capacitance enables voltage transitions in shorter time periods. Additionally, less capacitance reduces requirements for discharge demands during open circuit conditions.

The standard output stage Magna-Power Electronics power supplies has been designed to provide the lowest possible output ripple voltage within the constraints of available components, size, and cost. Part of the output stage consists of a bank of aluminum electrolytic capacitors which has the desired electrical properties to provide this function. These components require bleed resistors to discharge any voltage when the power supply has no load and is disabled. While the presence of these components and the resulting performance are normally industry accepted, there are applications where lower output capacitance and lower loss bleed resistors are extremely desirable and higher ripple voltage is acceptable. To meet this need, a high-slew rate option is available which has an output stage consisting of low capacitance film and aluminum electrolytic capacitors and lower loss bleed resistors. Applications for the high-slew rate option include battery charging, photovoltaic emulation, power waveform generation, and medium speed power pulsing. These applications all benefit from higher bandwidth and in many cases, can tolerate increased ripple voltage.

Key Applications

For battery charger applications, output capacitance and internal bleed resistors present themselves as a load to the connecting batteries. One common practice is to use a series diode to block reverse current flow with the sacrifice of increased cost and lower efficiency. The high slew rate option, with its lower output capacitance and lower loss bleed resistors, enables direct connection to batteries without series blocking diodes.

For photovoltaic emulation applications, higher bandwidth and lower output capacitance enable improved performance with higher speed, maximum power tracker algorithms. Maximum power tracker circuitry deviates the operating point of photovoltaic arrays to determine maximum power output. Slow responding emulation sources can present a problem when the speed of the algorithm exceeds that of the source. Furthermore, with lower output capacitance, changes in the operating point and transients, caused by shorting the solar inverter input, produce lower unwanted input currents.

The high-slew rate option enables the power supply to operate as a low frequency, power pulse generator. With the special capacitors selected for this option, it is possible to superimpose waveforms or produce a medium speed pulse on top of the dc output and expect normal capacitor life. It is important to note that the power supply output is single quadrant; that is, the output voltage or current cannot reverse.

Availability

The +HS option is available for the following product series: * SL Series * XR Series * TS Series * MT Series

Note

XR Series models greater than 2000 Vdc already include a high slew rate output stage and no additional +HS option is available for these models.

2.6.7. Water Cooling (+WC)

The Water Cooling (+WC) option is available for Magna-Power power supplies for use in densely packaged system cabinets, where heat removal by the product’s standard air cooling presents a challenge. Water cooling is accomplished with chill plates and an integrated central heat exchanger. The chill plates provides a thermal conduction path for heat sensitive components and the central heat exchanger removes heat from air internal to the enclosure. An internal solenoid valve enables water flow when the chill plate reaches 60°C. Operation of the solenoid prevents internal condensation.

Each 3U and 4U module has a 1/4” NPT male inlet and outlet for water flow. For 6U and 8U, external plumbing interconnects power supply modules, providing a single 1/2” NPT male inlet and outlet. A minimum of 2.50” is recommended behind the enclosure for this hardware and user connections. For systems requiring more than one power supply, plumbing connections must be paralleled; that is, water should not flow from one power supply into another.

When water cooled power supplies are ordered in combination with the Cabinet and Integration accessory, Magna-Power will parallel the water inlet connections and parallel the water outlet connections, providing a single inlet and outlet for the rack.

2.7.4. RS485 (Converter)

The industrial RS232 to Addressable RS485 Converter allows non-addressable, “dumb” RS-232 devices to be connected on an addressable RS-485 network. The master node controls all communications to connected devices. By distributing the switching intelligence along the RS-485 network, wiring cost savings are substantial compared to a single switched “star” configuration.

Devices can either be polled by the master node or request access to the bus through a RS-232 handshake line. This provides a versatile system for interconnecting devices that are designed for point to point communications. Because the units communicate using standard RS-485 signals, RS-232 devices can form their own network or be added to an existing system. Up to 32 nodes at up to 4000 feet can be on one bus without a repeater, and the 485DSS’s addressing scheme allows up to 256 units on a single network with repeaters.

2.7.5. USB (Converter)
