The adjustable high voltage power sup-
ply has all control and photography
functions on the front panel; the main

Low Range switch.
The On/Off power switch provides main
power to the circuit.
The Discharge Switch is a momentary

Transparent Discharge Plate (TDP)
The Transparent Discharge Plate (TDP) has
an object and camera sides. The side with
the colored dot is the object side that fac-
es (or is placed on) the object. This will
provide the brightest corona discharge to
photograph. The camera side faces the
camera.
The transparent section of the TDP has a
better than 90% transparency.
