CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 DESCRIPTION
The Series 500A/102A/152A/202A are High Voltage Switching Power Supplies designed
specifically for charging capacitors in laser systems and other pulsed power applications.
The 500A provides 500 J/s. the 102A is 1000 J/s, 152A is 1,500 J/s, and the 202A
provides 2000 J/s of average power and can be paralleled indefinitely for higher total
system power. TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. also offers the 402 Series, 802 Series, and
303 Series rated at 4,000, 8,000 and 30,000 J/s respectively.
The 500A/102A/152A/202A power supplies incorporate a new high-frequency IGBT
parallel resonant inverter topology for efficient generation of the output power. A highperformance control module precisely regulates the output voltage, automatically
compensating for line, load, temperature, and rep rate variations. Normal external fault
conditions such as line dropout open or short circuit load, HV arc and over-temperature
will not damage the unit. The latest development in the parallel resonant inverter
topology and control circuitry also drastically improves pulse-to-pulse repeatability by
reducing the ripple or “bucket effect” even at very high pulse repetition frequencies. The
output voltages of the 500A/102A/152A/202A supplies are fully adjustable over each
range.

CHAPTER 3 INSTALLATION
3.1 INITIAL INSPECTION
The shipping container contains the following items: power supply, HV output cable,
male 15-pin “D” remote control mating connector, mounting bracket and operator’s
manual. Examine the items immediately for damage. Locate the serial number label on
the end of the power supply and verify the model number, the input voltage rating and
the output voltage rating and polarity. In the event of any damage promptly notify the
transportation company and the TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. Customer Service
Department.

3.2 MOUNTING AND COOLING REQUIREMENTS
The power supply can be mounted by the chassis support brackets (see Figure 2-1, 2-2,
2-3 and 2-4 for details). The mounting brackets are attached to the supply using the four
PHMS 8-32NC X 0.250 screws included. Using longer screws may internal components
to ground, causing permanent damage to power supply. The power supply can also
operate on a bench or table top. Power supplies above 6kV with an oil-filled H.V. section
must be operated in an upright position i.e. mounting bracket parallel to ground plane. In
all cases adequate clearances must be provided for proper air flow and cable bends.
Keep the minimum HV cable bend radius greater than 4 inches (102mm) to minimize
stress on the insulation and at least 4 inches (102mm) of clearance at the inlet of the
power supply and 2 inches (51mm) at the sides.
When operating in an enclosed system, care must be taken to ensure the ambient inlet
air to the power supply does not exceed the maximum operating temperature of 45ºC.

3.3 INPUT AC POWER
Proper grounding from the input AC power is required to reduce the risk of electric
shock. The metal chassis of the power supply is grounded through the green earthing
wire at the input AC power terminal block. A protective ground connection by way of the
grounding conductor in the input terminal is essential for safe operation. Use extreme
caution when connecting input AC power and never apply the incorrect input power.
The PFC version and version without PFC should be connected as explained in the
following 2 paragraphs.
A. Version with no PFC.
For this version, the supply may be connected to either 115VAC for 230VAC input
voltage (See table 2.2 for availability). These connections are shown in Figure 3-1.
For 115VAC connect the input line wires to L1 and COM terminals.
For 230VAC connect the input wires to L2 and COM terminals.
B. Version with PFC.
The PFC version connection is shown in Figure 3-2. Connect the input voltage line wires
to L2 and COM terminals.

The 500A, 102A, 152A power supplies are safety approved by UL to UL60601-1. An
IEC601-1 approved isolation transformer is required to meet leakage current.

3.4 POWER CORD SPECIFICATION:
Use wire with minimum .064 inches (1.6mm) diameter and 600 V insulation.

10
83-493-001 Rev. P

3.5 CONNECTING HIGH VOLTAGE OUTPUT
POTENTIAL LETHAL VOLTAGE

Ensure that the power supply is off and disconnected from the input power and never
operate the power supply without a load capacitor. Make sure that all load capacitors are
discharged and shorted to ground before making any connections. TDK-Lambda
Americas Inc. recommends the use of safety dump switches in high voltage discharge
circuits.
Never handle the HV cable during operation.
This power supply is designed to operate with a capacitive load. Operation of the
power supply without an external load capacitor may result in damage to internal
circuitry.
Always use the HV connector and cable provided with the power supply or an equivalent
substitute provided by TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. Fully insert the connector end of the
HV cable and tighten the locking nut only “hand tight”.
NOTE: When operating above 20kV and/or 200 Hz rep. rate, ensure that silicone
grease (such as Dow Corning DC-4) is applied to the HV cable before insertion into the
HV connector. This displaces the air in the connector and reduces long term corona
damage.
Keep the HV cable bend radius greater than 4 inches (102mm) to minimize stress on the
insulation. Keep the HV cable as distant as possible from the input power and the input
control signals.
Some peak current will flow out of the power supply during discharge and return through
the HV return and system chassis. This current comes from voltage reversal in under
damped systems and from normal discharge of filter and cable capacitance. The path for
this current should not parallel control signal returns since the resulting voltages could
interfere with normal system operation. The currents developed with voltage reversal at
high rep. rates, could damage the power supply. A resistor in series with the HV output
can be added to limit this current to an acceptable level. Refer to Section 5.2, Page 16 or
the TDK-Lambda High Power online application notes for more information.
The oil-filled HV assembly should not be opened. The oil and components have been
specially cleaned and vacuum impregnated at the factory and the assembly hermetically
sealed. Opening the assembly will compromise performance and void the warranty.
Tanks must only be serviced at TDK-Lambda Americas Inc.

3.6 GROUNDING THE PRODUCT
3.6.1 GROUNDING OF INPUT LINE
The supply is grounded through the ground terminal of the input connector. A protective
ground connection by the way of the grounding conductor in the input terminal is
essential for safe operation.
3.6.2 OUTPUT GROUND CONNECTION
It is important that there be a ground connecting the supply to the load as shown in
Figure 3-3.

Figure 3-3 Output Ground Connection
3.6.3 FOR UNITS WITH O/P VOLTAGE ≤ 6kV
The ground connection is made via the shield of the RG59 coaxial HV output cable
provided with the supply.
3.6.4 FOR UNITS WITH O/P VOLTAGE > 6kV:
The ground connection between the load and the supply must be made with a separate
wire to the 8-32 UNC, ½ “long grounding stud provided on the supply.

4.2.2 ELECTRICAL INSPECTION
Before the power supply is installed in a system, verify that no internal damage occurred
during shipping. A simple preliminary electrical test should be performed. This test is
described below.
4.2.2.1 TEST 1
Purpose: Verify general overload operation.
1. With AC power "OFF" and disconnected, short the H.V. output by connecting the
center conductor of the output cable to its return shield (or ground). This dead short
forces the unit to generate full output current at zero voltage.
2. Set the output voltage control to zero. Connect the AC power to the unit. Turn the AC
power "ON".
3. Turn the he H.V. on and turn up the H.V. control until the power supply is generating
output current into the dead short. The power supply will intermittently turn on and off
indicating the "overload" condition. The unit should continue to cycle in this mode with a
1 sec. repetition rate indefinitely (500mS on and 500mS off). The power supply will go
into overload when max. current is drawn for more than half a second.
4. Turn off the H.V. and A.C. power.
This test indicates the inverter section is generating maximum current and the logic and
overload circuitry works correctly.
4.2.2.2 TEST 2
Purpose: Verify that the power supply generates maximum rated voltage, and the
regulation and feedback circuits are functioning.
1. With AC power OFF and disconnected, connect an appropriate load capacitor to the
power supply output cable.
2. Prepare to charge the capacitor. NOTE: Operating a 502A/102A/152A/202A power
supply into an open circuit (no load operation) will instantly damage the power supply's
H.V. output diodes. Make sure the load (capacitor) is connected and the H.V. output
cable is securely inserted and connected.
3. Turn the voltage control all the way down to zero, apply AC power and turn the HV
ON. By turning up the H.V. control knob the capacitor will charge to the programmed
voltage The power supply may be turned all the way up to its maximum output voltage
provided the load capacitor is sufficiently rated.

83-493-001 Rev. P

4. By turning the voltage control down or turning the H.V. OFF, the capacitor will "bleed"
down through the internal voltage divider resistors used for regulation feedback.
NOTE: An overload condition can occur if the INHIBIT signal is missing, allowing HV
switch to latch-up. It can also occur if the discharge rep. rate is too high to allow the
capacitor to fully charge to V PROGRAM.
Test #2 indicates the H.V. section is working correctly. Tests 1 and 2 generally indicate
the unit is functioning as designed. Although 100% power had not been generated,
these two tests give greater than 90% confidence that the unit is not damaged.
If any inconsistency from the above test procedure is noted, do not hesitate to call
Lambda Americas Customer Service for assistance. If equipped with an oil-filled tank
this assembly should not be opened unless. This oil filled tank has been hermetically
sealed at the factory. Opening the supply or the assembly will void the factory warranty,
and may compromise performance.

For clarification and further technical assistance specific to your applications, please
contact TDK-Lambda Americas Inc.

5.1 DETERMINING CAPACITOR CHARGE TIME
The ratings of these supplies are as follows: 500A – 500 J/s, 102A – 1000 J/s, 152A –
1500J/s, 202A-2000J/s average charge rate. Although the measure of Joules/sec
equates to Watts, Stored Energy per unit time is more convenient when working with
energy storage capacitors. The peak charge rate determines the capacitor charge time.
The average charge rate determines the total power delivered from the power supply. It
is possible to charge a capacitor at 1650 J/sec, but to discharge it at a low rep. rate
producing an average of 100 J/sec. The following formulas can be used to determine the
average and peak charge rate.

5.2 VOLTAGE REVERSAL
When the capacitor or PFN is discharged, a high peak current may flow out of the power
supply as a result of voltage reversal. This occurs in a system which is under damped in
order to clear the high voltage switch after each pulse. The average value of this peak
current added to the normal output current may exceed the rating of the HV diodes in the
power supply. This current can be measured with a current transformer as shown in
Figure 5.2.

83-493-001 Rev. P

A series terminating resistor (or series inductor or clamp diode) must be added as shown
if the average value of the peak current exceeds 110% of the normal output current.
When choosing Rs, ensure it can withstand the full output voltage across it as well as
the power dissipation caused by discharging Co (see Table 5.1) and Cc (20pF/ft) (65.62
pf/m) each cycle as well as conducting the normal output current. It’s power dissipation
can be calculated as Pd = (Io² Rs) + ½ (Co + Cc) V² (REP RATE).

5.3 PARALLELING UNITS
The 500A/102A/152A/202A power supplies are designed for simple parallel operation.
The input power and HV output should be connected directly together. The REMOTE
connectors on the input panel can also be connected directly together using a “daisy
chain” ribbon cable from the system controller. Each of the power supplies operate at the
same time with the total charge rate equal to the sum of each.
Sometimes when operating several units in parallel, the high total power generates noise
which interferes with the power supply control. This is usually due to the many
interconnecting control cables acting as an antenna picking up noise. The problem
usually appears as one or more of the power supplies shuts down when the output
voltage increases beyond a certain level. Dressing the control cables as short as
possible and close to ground or using shielded cables should help. In severe cases, it is
necessary to wrap the cables several times through high permeability ferrite cores at the
input panel of each unit.
The 500A/102A/152A/202A power supplies can also be used as an Isolated High
Voltage continuous DC power source by adding an external filter capacitor. The value of
the filter capacitor depends upon the value of the allowable output voltage ripple value.
For parallel operation into DC loads, please contact TDK-Lambda Americas Inc.
Customer Service Department. (See Section 5.6).

5.4 MEASURING HIGH VOLTAGES

WARNING: EXTREME CAUTION MUST ALWAYS BE EXERCISED WHEN
TAKING ANY HIGH VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS. IT SHOULD BE DONE ONLY
BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL WHO ARE TRAINED IN THE SAFETY ASPECTS
OF WORKING WITH HIGH VOLTAGE.

A sample of the output voltage is available at the REMOTE connector. If it is desired to
measure the HV output externally, care must be taken to understand the accuracy of the
measurement.
When making a DC measurement, such as when the power supply is holding voltage on
a capacitor, any HV probe and DVM combination can be used. The Fluke 80K-40 probe
with any 10M input resistance DVM is adequate up to 40kV. Building a simple resistor
divider using appropriate HV resistors is also very straightforward. Keep in mind that all
HV resistors, including the one in the Fluke probe, exhibit a negative voltage coefficient,
changing by up to 4% from zero to max. voltage. De-rating the resistors and calibrating
at the operating point solves this problem.
The value of the resistor R1 and R2 (Figure 5.3) can be calculated as follows:

VM =

R2
x Vo
R1 + R 2
where Vo is the High Voltage being measured.

Making a pulsed measurement with an oscilloscope requires a compensated HV probe
having a wide bandwidth. Simply connecting a DC probe, through the proper resistance,
into a scope yields a slow response only adequate for low rep. rate systems. As with DC
probes, the pulsed probe resistor voltage coefficient is a problem. In addition, damage to
the resistors can occur during pulsing due to high electric field gradients. Also, stray
capacitance to nearby objects can significantly alter the pulse response. For a highperformance, shielded probe to 40KV use a Tektronix P6015 or Ross Engineering
VD60-8.3-A-K-LB.
Measurements accurate to better than 0.1% can be achieved using a bias technique.
For example, if a 40V signal (40kV divided by 1000) is to be measured accurately, the
minus input of the DVM would be biased up 40V. The original signal, with respect to
ground, is fed to the plus input of the DVM. The bias can be measured accurately for
absolute measurements, or relative measurements read directly as the line or load is
varied. In the same manner, an oscilloscope return can be biased for accurate peak
measurements during pulsing.

5.5 DETERMINING AC LINE CURRENT
P
IL = Line current
IL =
VL PF X EFF
P = Average output power
VL = Line voltage
PF = Power factor (.65 min)
EFF = 0.85
Ex: A 152A operating from 115V – 10% and delivering 1000W average.

IL =

1000
x 0.9 =17.5 A
(115)(.65)(0.85)

When charging very large capacitor banks requiring many seconds or minutes to reach
end-of-charge, the power supply will display a load fault and go into a 50% duty cycle
protection mode. If this feature is defeated and the power supply is allowed to charge for
an extended period, the peak output power, not the average power, must be used to
determine line current. (See Section 5.7).

5.6 CONTINUOUS HV DC OPERATION (CONSTANT VOLTAGE)
The 500A/102A/152A/202A supplies can be used as a constant voltage supply by the
addition of an external filter capacitor. The value of this capacitor will determine the
ripple voltage on the DC output.

∆ VPK − PK =

1.4( Po max)
Vo)(Co)( Fs )
Where: Po max = Maximum output power in watts
Vo = Output voltage in volts
Co = Total output capacitance in microfarads
Fs = Lowest switching frequency (40KHz)

When operating as a DC supply care must be taken not to draw more than the J/sec
rating of the unit.
Also, if the filter capacitor is inadvertently shorted, it may ring which can damage the
supply (Section 5.2).

CHAPTER 6 MAINTENANCE AND CALIBRATION

6.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TRAINED IN THE SAFETY ASPECTS OF HIGH
VOLTAGE SHOULD PERFORM CALIBRATION.
The calibration steps described in this section require operation of the power supply with
the cover removed. Proceed with extreme caution as hazardous voltages are exposed
throughout the unit.
Safety glasses must be worn to prevent serious injury in the event of a component
failure (e.g., power transistors readily explode during fault conditions).
Because the power supply does not receive proper cooling with the cover removed, it
must be cooled by an external fan placed next to the supply to cool the inverter and HV
section (min. air flow 100 CFM (2.83 M3/min.)) when operating at full power. Operation
at full power with cover removed should be limited to less than five minutes.

6.2 MAINTENANCE
No maintenance is required under normal operating conditions. Occasional vacuum or
blow-out of the chassis may be required when operated in extremely dirty environments.
The oil-filled HV assembly must not be opened. The oil and components have been
specially cleaned and vacuum impregnated at the factory and the assembly hermetically
sealed. Opening assembly will compromise performance and void warranty. HV Tanks
must only be services at TDK-Lambda Americas Inc.

6.3 CALIBRATION
Calibration of the output voltage is accomplished with trim pot RP4 located on the control
board. This is the top PC board of the inverter assembly. RP4 is a 25 turn trim pot.
Slowly turn it clockwise to decrease the output voltage for a given VPROGRAM. Factory
set for 10V rated voltage for standard version. Refer to Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of product
specification for Linearity and Accuracy.

exposure. If the exposure cannot be completely characterized or an oxygen deficient atmosphere is possible
or anticipated, SCBA is recommended. Work gloves that are resistant to hydrocarbons are recommended.
Gloves made of polyvinyl acetate (PVA) are not water-resistant and are not suitable for emergency use.
Chemical goggles are recommended if splashes or contact with eyes is possible. Small spills: normal antistatic
work clothes are usually adequate. Large spills: full body suit of chemical resistant, antistatic material is
recommended.
SPILL MANAGEMENT
Land Spill: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Recover by pumping or with suitable absorbent.
Water Spill: Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Confine the spill immediately with booms. Warn other
shipping. Remove from the surface by skimming or with suitable absorbents. Seek the advice of a specialist
before using dispersants.
Water spill and land spill recommendations are based on the most likely spill scenario for this material;
however, geographic conditions, wind, temperature, (and in the case of a water spill) wave and current direction
and speed may greatly influence the appropriate action to be taken. For this reason, local experts should be
consulted. Note: Local regulations may prescribe or limit action to be taken.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS
Large Spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later recovery and disposal. Prevent entry into waterways,
sewers, basements or confined areas.

SECTION 7

HANDLING AND STORAGE

HANDLING
Avoid contact with skin. Prevent small spills and leakage to avoid slip hazard. Material can accumulate static
charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). When the material is handled in bulk, an
electrical spark could ignite any flammable vapors from liquids or residues that may be present (e.g., during
switch-loading operations). Use proper bonding and/or ground procedures. However, bonding and grounds
may not eliminate the hazard from static accumulation. Consult local applicable standards for guidance.
Additional references include American Petroleum Institute 2003 (Protection Against Ignitions Arising out of
Static, Lightning and Stray Currents) or National Fire Protection Agency 77 (Recommended Practice on Static
