Programmer User guide

For single quadrant operation (I+, V+) the Model 430
Programmer can control various unipolar switching or linear
supplies. Shown here is the AMI Model 08150PS-430 1200 watt
switching supply combination. This system offers great value,
small size, and minimum heat generation. The Model 430
Programmer has also been tested on older supplies such as the
HP6260B linear power supply; it can breathe new life into your
system by offering state of the art control capability.
Bipolar operation (I+, V-/+) is obtained by adding a Model 601
Energy Absorber unit to take full advantage of programmed
magnetic field profiles, and other situations requiring fast ramp
down rates.
AMI’s lowest-power standard bipolar power supply system, designated 05100PS-430-601, has the Model 08150PS configured at 100 A/ 10
V, and in conjunction with the Model 601, supplies 100 A at 5 V to the load. The system comes mounted in a 19” rack style cabinet.
Specifications for this and other standard AMI bipolar systems are outlined below. AMI’s highest-power standard bipolar power supply
system, the Model 05500PS-430-601, is pictured on the last page of this brochure. Other ratings and configurations are available.

For true high-current four-quadrant operation (I+/-, V+/-) the Model
430 is configured with the Model 4Q06125PS Power Supply to
provide smooth, linear sweeps through zero current with constant
ramp rates across the entire operating range. The magnet system
can easily be fine tuned by making precise adjustments to the current
through the use of the convenient velocity sensitive encoder dial. This
system, designated 4Q06125PS-430, comes standard in a 19” rack
style cabinet, and is depicted on the cover page of this brochure.
For higher voltage or current, series and parallel configurations of the
4Q06125PS are available (designated 4Q12125PS-430 and
4Q06250PS-430). For smaller magnets, four quadrant power supply
systems (designated 4Q1005PS-430 and 4Q1010PS-430)
incorporate the smaller Kepco BOP supplies and are offered for
smaller magnet requirements. Specifications for standard AMI four
quadrant systems are outlined below.
Other ratings and configurations are available.
