BOP 6-125MG

TRANSITION CIRCUIT KIT

1.  DESCRIPTION

Kepco KIT 219-0548 contains components used for a field upgrade of BOP 6-125MG power supplies to allow
smoother transitions through zero power when driving inductive loads at low frequencies and/or at a low rate of
output power changes. This upgrade avoids possible faults under these conditions which can cause the unit to dis-
play an error and reduce output power to zero. 

The Transition circuit detects when the voltage and the current at the BOP output have opposite signs, showing
that the unit is beginning to sink power. This turns on a preload placed between the Front End Module and the Out-
put Module of the BOP. If the Sink power increases to the point that the Source-Recuperation Detector is triggered,
the Front End switches to Sink-Recuperation mode at an increased level of power, as the preload is turned off by
the Source-Recuperation Detector. This permits a sharper transition towards Sink-Recuperation mode. If the Front
End switches to Source mode, the preload is activated for a predetermined period of time in order to boost the
power requested from the Front End, resulting in a sharper transition towards the Source mode.

2.  APPLICABILITY

This KIT applies only to BOP 6-125MG models. Contact Kepco for kits applicable to other models. This manual
