EMCO Press Release: Magnetic Free, Ultra-Low Noise, Low Profile High Voltage Modules Suit Portable Designs

EMCO’s P Series of DC to HV DC power supplies offers micro-power outputs in a compact package.
Sutter Creek, California, September 22, 2014 – EMCO High Voltage Corporation today announced the launch of a new line of micro-power high voltage power supplies. The new P Series is designed to meet the demands of mobile, battery-powered detector applications.

“Low profile, small size and ultra-low EMI/RFI and ripple make the P Series ideal for hand-held devices, such as CBRN detectors,” says Mike Doherty, President and CEO of EMCO.

The P Series offers fully regulated and programmable outputs of 0 to 1200 V or 0 to 2000 V in a lightweight, miniature PC-mount package. Consuming less than 4mA at full output and housed in a case less than a quarter-inch tall, the P Series is well suited for battery-powered applications. Featuring a unique inductor/transformer-less design, low noise circuitry and shielded case, the lightweight modules are ideal for very sensitive detector applications. Ripple is less than 100 micro-volts peak to peak. The soft-start feature is specifically designed to protect sensitive detectors used in portable radiation and explosives detection equipment.

A precision on-board voltage reference is provided for full scale, fixed or variable output configurations, which facilitates plug-and-play designs. The P Series provides on-board voltage monitoring as a proportional 1000 to 1 voltage and accommodates a wide input voltage range of 5 to 12 V. Models are available in positive and negative outputs.

Units are available from stock.
