High Voltage Power Supplies

Bruker high voltage power supplies find their main applications in IOT- and Klystron based RF transmitters in Particles Physics. Our high voltage power supplies provide high voltages of up to 50 kV at broad range from 1 kW up to several Megawatts. The compact solid-state design is based either on the latest switch mode technique or in case of highest power applications based on SCR (Thyristor) control.

Unsurpassed stability of up to 99.9%, due to minimal fluctuations, ensures reliable and stable operation, in either Pulsed or DC mode. In case of an arc event the dissipated energy is well defined. As an option, solid-state crowbar circuits are available. Standalone and failsafe operation is enabled due to full integration of all main elements of the emitter tube such Cathodes, Grids, Heater, Ion Pump into one system.
