SPECIFICATIONS 
 

 

CAUTION:

 

ALL SPECIFICATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. 
CUSTOMERS ARE NOT NOTIFIED WHEN CHANGES OCCUR UNLESS THEY 
HAVE ARRANGED FOR CONFIGURATION CONTROL WITH ULTRAVOLT’S 
CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT (“CSD”) THROUGH THE “-Q” SUFFIX 
PROGRAM. ONLY THOSE ITEMS OF GREATEST SIGNIFICANCE WILL BE 
POSTED ON ULTRAVOLT’S WEB SITE, IN THE PRODUCT-CHANGE NOTICE 
SECTION.

 

 

Since each channel of the 

UltraVolt HV Rack

®

 system is custom configured with a specific model of 

UltraVolt

®

 

high-voltage power supply, the end user should refer to UltraVolt’s datasheet for the electrical specifications of that 
model. 
 

Storage Temperature 

Storage temperature range is -55C° to +105C°. 

 

Operating Altitude, Humidity & Temperature: 

UltraVolt HV Rack

 Series operating performance is guaranteed between sea level and 10,000ft in non-

condensing relative humidity up to 95% between temperatures of +10°C and +40°C.  

 
Shock and vibration 

TBD 

 

AC Power 

The AC input power is universal auto-ranging. It operates between 85 to 250VAC at 47 to 63Hz. The power 
entry module is EMI/RFI-filtered, IEC 320/C20 inlet. 

 

Fuse 

AC power is fused through a 5mm x 20mm, time-delay fuse located on the rear panel. The fuse must always be 
replaced with the same type and rating, as per the 

UltraVolt HV Rack

 power supply’s rating label. 

 

HV connectors 

The 

UltraVolt HV Rack

 system is equipped with a configurable output plate for each high-voltage output 

channel. Each rack can have custom-configured high-voltage output and return connectors, according to 
customer requirement. The basic 

UltraVolt HV Rack

 system includes Alden B110US 40kV industrial high-

voltage output connectors and a two-way binding post return for each channel.   

 
Package 

Chassis dimensions: 17.00” wide x 18.50” deep x 5.00” high (431,8 x 469,9 x 127,0mm). Width is measured 

chassis side to opposite side; depth is measured from the back of the front-panel mounting flange to chassis 
rear and does not include rear-panel connector protrusion; height is measured chassis top to chassis bottom 
and does not include the height of rubber feet mounted on the bottom. 

 
Front-panel dimensions: 19.00” wide x 0.125” deep x 5.25” high (3U) (482,60 x 3,18 x 133,35mm). These 

measurements do not include handles or controls. Front-panel mounting holes are configured for both #10-32 
and M6 rack configurations. 

 
Weight: Approximately 30 pounds (11,2kg), configuration dependent; approximately 40 pounds (14,93kg) 

shipping.
