MT 시리즈
Programmable DC Power Supply
Magna-Power Electronics MT Series uses the same reliable current-fed power processing technology and controls as the rest of the MagnaDC programmable power supply product line, but with larger high-power modules: individual 150 kW and 250 kW power supplies. The high-frequency IGBT-based MT Series units are among the largest standard switched-mode power supplies on the market, minimizing the number of switching components when comparing to smaller module sizes. Scaling in the multi-megawatts is accomplished using the UID47 device, which provides master-slave control: one power supply takes command over the remaining units, for true system operation. As an added safety measure, all MT Series units include an input AC breaker rated for full power.
250 kW modules come standard with an embedded 12-pulse harmonic neutralizer, ensuring low total harmonic distortion (THD). Even higher quality AC waveforms are available with an external additional 500 kW 24-pulse or 1000 kW 48-pulse harmonic neutralizers, designed and manufactured exclusively by Magna-Power for its MT Series products.
Build-Time: 10-12 Weeks
Current-Fed Topology: Robust Power Conversion
All MagnaDC programmable DC power supplies utilize high-frequency IGBT- and MOSFET-based power processing in a 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 eliminated. This topology coupled with state-of-the-art Silicon Carbide (SiC) power semiconductors enables the MagnaDC power supplies to deliver class-leading power density, reliability, and efficiency with continuous full-power operation up to 50°C ambient.
Made in the USA, Available Worldwide
MagnaDC programmable DC power supplies are designed and manufactured at Magna-Power’s 73,500 sq-ft vertically integrated USA manufacturing facility in Flemington, New Jersey. From raw materials to the completed product, Magna-Power has insourced nearly the entire production process to maintain complete control of quality, cost, and build-time. Heat-sinks and various metal assemblies are machined through both automated CNC and EDM. Sheet metal is cut, punched, sanded, bent, and powder coated in-house. Magnetics are wound-to-order from validated designs based on a model’s voltage and current. A full surface mount technology (SMT) with multiple stages of 3D automated optical inspection ensures high-quality printed circuit board assemblies. Finally, after assembly, products undergo comprehensive test and calibration, followed by an extended burn-in period.
Products are sold directly from the factory and through distribution, with a service network around the world.
Standard Safety Features
MagnaDC programmable DC power supplies feature a soft-start circuit to eliminate large peak in-rush currents from the AC mains, ensuring AC current draw never exceeds the current draw at full load. In addition, extensive safety and diagnostic functions are included, as follows:
- AC Phase Loss
- Over Voltage Trip (Programmable)
- Over Current Trip (Programmable)
- Cleared Fuse
- Over Voltage on Program Line Input
- Over Temperature on Internal Heatsinks
- Safety Interlock / Emergency Stop Fault
When in standby or diagnostic fault, the AC mains are mechanically disconnected by an embedded AC contactor, providing confidence that the unit is only processing power when desired. Users can easily identify faults using the Status message display or by SCPI commands.
Finally, the interlock / emergency stop input is included as standard. This feature provides a 5V interlock input, which when coupled with the provided 5V reference signal, allows for a dry contact to easily trigger a latching interlock fault, while maintaining control power.
Limitless Programming Capabilities
With support for Standard Commands for Programmable Instrumentation (SCPI), MagnaDC power supplies provide an easy to use API with ASCII commands in readable text. Over 40 commands allow programmatic access to product registers, starting and stopping the product, control of voltage and current, high-accuracy measurement queries, and product configuration. Simple scripting or complex software can be achieved, with extensive documentation and examples provided by Magna-Power.
MagnaDC power supplies include RS232 communication interface standard with optional LXI TCP/IP Ethernet (+LXI) and IEEE-488 GPIB (+GPIB) options.
External User I/O for PLC Control or PHIL Simulation
Using the rear User 37-pin I/O connector, the MagnaDC power supplies can be completely controlled and monitored using external signals. The voltage, current, over voltage and over current set points are set by applying a 0-10V analog signal. Each diagnostic condition is given a designated pin, which reads +5V when high. 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.
The following list summarizes the available I/O from the power supply:
- 4 analog programming inputs
- 2 analog measurement outputs
- 5 digital inputs
- 15 digital outputs
- +2.5V, +5V and +10V reference signals
With the High Slew Rate Output (+HS) option equipped, high bandwidth operation is enabled along with fast rise times, allowing MagnaDC power supplies to address requirements for Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL).
High Performance Master-Slave Operation
All MagnaDC programmable DC power supplies come with master-slaving capability.
The MagnaDC master-slaving strategy helps to ensures no degradation in performance as units are added in parallel or series by providing gate drive signals directly from the master to the slave units. This strategy ensures one control loop for the system and eliminates the noise susceptibility commonly found when sending analog control references over long distances.
The Universal Interface Device 47 (UID47) accessory eases master-slave parallel or series configuration of Magna-Power DC power supplies, enabling near equal current or voltage sharing, depending on the configuration.
Master-slave series operation is supported to combined voltages up to the product's DC Output Isolation specification. No external blocking diodes are requires for series operation.
Magna-Power Software, NI LabVIEW Drivers, and IVI Drivers
All MagnaDC power supplies come standard with an IVI driver and an NI LabVIEW driver featuring a full set of VIs. Get started quickly with either driver using included example programs.
Magna-Power's included Remote Interface Software (pictured) provides an easy and intuitive method to operate a Magna-Power Electronics power supply with computer control. The software includes a virtual control panel, command panel to explore available commands, register panel to monitor the power supply status, calibration panel for recalibrating internal digital potentiometers, firmware panel for upgrading firmware, and a finally a modulation panel to emulate non-linear profiles.
All communication interfaces are supported across the various methods to program MagnaDC power supplies.
MT Series Harmonic Neutralization
Magna-Power's Harmonic Neutralizers eliminate families of harmonic components by multiplying the number of input phases with specially wound magnetic components, reducing the total harmonic distortion (THD). These magnetic components, in combination with equally loaded, high-power DC power supplies, offer a cost-effective solution to maintaining power quality at acceptable levels, enabling applications to benefit from Magna-Power's reliable high-frequency switch-mode power supplies, extended into multi-megawatts. A 12-pulse Harmonic Neutralizer is embedded in all 250 kW models and its installation is transparent to the end user. For applications demanding an even better THD level than that provided by a 12-pulse waveform, external 24-pulse and 48-pulse harmonic neutralizers are available from Magna-Power. Contact you local sales partner for more information.
Understanding AC Harmonic Waveforms
The following figures are representative of expected AC current waveforms for the various pulses available from Magna-Power Electronics power supplies. Standard models 1.5 kW through 150 kW produce 6-pulse waveforms, while 250 kW models produce 12-pulse waveforms. Magna-Power Electronics Harmonic Neutralizers suppress families of harmonics by increasing the number of power phases. It can be used when multiple power supplies are used in series or parallel and are equally loaded. Harmonic Neutralizers can produce 12-pulse, 18-pulse, 24-pulse, or 48-pulse waveforms which have harmonic current components on the order of 12n±1, 18n±1, 24n±1, or 48n±1, respectively. The following figures show the theoretical difference for waveforms with a different number of pulses. Harmonic Neutralizers are protected with appropriate sized primary-side circuit breakers.
Why Neutralize Harmonics?
Input current harmonics are a by-product of nearly all power supplies. Power can only be delivered to the load if the frequency and phase of the voltage and current match. For a three phase power supply using a three phase input rectifier, the input current has a theoretical spectrum of 6n±1 where n is an integer incrementing from 1; this is known as a 6-pulse waveform. This means that a power supply with a three phase input rectifier will produce input currents at 1, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19 ... times the fundamental frequency. The theoretical magnitude decays as the reciprocal of the harmonic component. The 5th and 7th harmonic components have magnitudes of 20% and 14% of the fundamental component, respectively. Harmonics currents in power systems can find unusual paths and can cause problems if the magnitude is significant and there are loads sensitive to harmonic frequencies. For example, lighting ballasts have series connected capacitors and inductors which can be excited by harmonic currents. IEEE has introduced standard, IEEE 519, which defines recommended limits. Implementing this standard requires a knowledge of the power system and other loads producing harmonics. Unfortunately, the standard can allow the same power supply to possibly exceed limits in one application and not in another. In the same respect, a power supply may or may not can cause a harmonic related problem with or without meeting IEEE 519. The best solution to minimize the risk of a harmonic problem is to eliminate the harmonic current at the source.
