Magna-Power XR50-80

Innovative and Scalable

Magna-Power Electronics XR Series combines the best of DC power processing with microprocessor embedded control. A combination of high and medium frequency power processing technologies improves response, shrinks package size, and reduces cost. XR Series power supplies are current-fed and are more tolerant to abusive loads than conventional switching power supplies. This technology allows the power supply to operate under short-circuit conditions, open-circuit conditions, and everything in between.

XR Series power supplies offer both master/slave parallel and series operation. This enables two or more power supplies to be placed in parallel for increased output current or in series for increased output voltage. With master/slave operation, power supplies operate at near equal voltage and current. The process of master/slaving power supplies is plug & play with the use of Magna-Power Electronics UID46 option, which can be added at any time. 

XR Series power supplies can operate as a voltage source or current source depending on the control settings and load conditions. If the power supply is operating as a voltage source and the load increases to a point beyond the current command setting, the power supply automatically crosses over to current mode control and operates as a current source at that setting.

Designed for Safety

The XR Series power supplies have extensive diagnostic functions -- all of which, when activated, take command to shut down the system.gnostic functions include phase loss, excessive thermal conditions, over voltage trip, over current trip, fuse clearing, and program line. Program line monitors externally applied analog set point signals to insure they are within the specified range. Upon a diagnostic fault condition, main power is disconnected and the diagnostic condition is latched into memory. Pressing the clear key clears the memory. All diagnostic functions can be monitored through a rear connector. Furthermore, control functions can also be set through the rear connector to allow simultaneous control of one or more XR Series units.

XR Series supplies have three levels of over voltage/current protection: shutdown of controlling insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT¿s), disconnect of main power, and input fuses. After an over voltage/current trip condition, the supply must be reset.

Electronic Output Stage

The new and novel XR Series output stage utilizes constant power loading under all conditions via an electronic bleed resistance. This electronic bleeder means stability under all operating conditions and faster fall times, without affecting the overall system efficiency.
