12. If this power supply weighs more than 40lb / 18kg (see Section 4 -
Specifications), it must be lifted by two persons. Always use proper lifting
technique.
If power supply was shipped with a fork lift base (the base must be
provided by Dynatronix and must be physically connected to the power supply
housing) use a fork lift to move the power supply. Secure the power supply to
prevent the power supply from falling or tipping.

recommended. Use for other purposes may give unexpected results or cause
damage to the power supply and/or the system it is being used in.
3. Functional Overview
Each 10kW power module contains a boost converter and a buck converter. The boost converter
works in current mode control to provide power factor correction. The output of the boost
converter provides power to the buck converter. The buck converter provides the power supply
output with current or voltage regulation modes. Control of both converters is tightly coupled with
a digital control system.
The standard control panel has a volt meter, amp meter, status indicators, function buttons, and
digital encoders to adjust settings. The optional graphic touch screen control panel provides an
intuitive graphical user interface with easy access to menus and power supply settings. Both
control panels provide digital control signals, a serial host port, and an optional analog control card
for external control.
This switch mode power supply provides DC, pulse, or complex waveform outputs. The DC and
pulse settings can be adjusted using the control panel. Complex waveforms are designed using
the provided computer software application. Multiple complex waveforms can be downloaded to
the control panel and then selected to run using the control panel menus.
The following is a general list of features.
DC, Pulse, or custom waveform output
Programmable ramp output (waveform amplitude ramp)
