- Short-circuit and overload protection accompanied by LED fault
indicators
- Operates from 100, 120, 220, or 240 V ac at 50 or 60 Hz
- Two standard preamplifier power outlets
The compact Model 4006 Minibin and Power
Supply is the ideal solution where a small number of NIM modules must be located close to
the action in a measurement system. Its slim 24-cm x 32-cm footprint minimizes the space
required on a table top. It can operate at full power while sitting on a solid surface,
because rear intake and exhaust of cooling air eliminates the need to provide free air
flow from below. The Model 4006 accommodates up to 6 standard, single-width NIM modules,
or a proportionately smaller number of double-width modules. In addition to the standard
±24-V and ±12-V dc power, ±6 V is provided to serve the high-current demands of TTL and
ECL logic used extensively in newer NIM modules. The full load of 0.75 A on both of the
24-V supplies, 1.5 A on both of the 12-V supplies, and 4 A on both of the 6-V supplies can
be drawn at room temperature (23°C) for a total of 120 W dc power. A total load of 80 W
dc can be driven at ambient temperatures up to 50°C. The standard 60 VA of 120 V ac is
also available on the module power connectors, independent of the actual ac voltage
applied to the main power cord. Two 9-pin D connectors on the rear panel provide a
convenient source of ±6-V, ±12-V and ±24-V power for preamplifiers via the
industry-standard preamplifier power plug.
Extensive protection is designed into the
Model 4006 power supply. Crowbar circuits are included on the ±6-V power lines to protect
TTL and ECL integrated circuits against overvoltage. All six of the dc power lines
incorporate protective fold-back circuits that automatically reduce the output voltage in
case of an excessive load current or a short circuit. Green LED indicators turn red when
the supply voltage is reduced by an overload. The LEDs extinguish if the voltage is
reduced to zero by a low-impedance short circuit. Thermal cut-out switches protect the
power supply against excessive temperature. When the heat sink temperature is within 15°C
of the maximum safe temperature, the red TEMP warning indicator turns on. When the maximum
safe temperature is exceeded, all power to the unit is automatically turned off. Power is
recovered automatically when the temperature is reduced below the safe limit. There are no
hot, external heat sinks that can be accidentally touched. All heat sinks are internal to
the unit and cooled by forced air. The ac power input is protected with a fuse, and the
unit meets all CE requirements.
A power input module with the standard IEC
connector and selectable 100, 120, 220 and 240 ac input voltages at 50 or 60 Hz makes the
Model 4006 compatible with power cords and ac power outlets in virtually all countries.
