MAGNUM Ultrasonic Generators -

Types GM , GMR

Overview

Power Sonics newest line of ultrasonic generators (power supplies) employs the latest solid state IGBT technology to replace the rugged and reliably performing PSCR generators built for many years. These brand new designs represent years of development and testing to ensure reliability while adding new product and diagnostic features not available before.

Individual Generator Features

Types GM (used with "flat" transducers) and GMR (used with "radial" transducers) generators are our newest power supplies and use modern IGBT technology. They are designed to be highly self protective and self diagnostic. Types GM and GMR Power Generator IGBT technology AC POWER ON Operational LED's (Green) - Indicates that the line circuit breaker is turned on and 115 Volts is available for control and power. ULTRASONIC POWER ON (Green) - Indicates that the generator is supplying power to the transducer and that the transducer and power circuits are functioning properly. The solid state circuitry utilizes active power devices which have higher peak current and voltage ratings over previous power devices. Circuit design features match the generator and output signal to various applications and operate effectively in less than ideal bath conditions. An integral, cleanable air filter is standard. Diagnostic LED's GENERATOR ON (Green) - Indicates that the IC control has supplied a signal to turn on the rectifier and high frequency circuit. Interchangeable with Power Sonics, Westinghouse and other makes of Magnetostrictive Equipment CONTROL POWER ON (Green) - Indicates that the control voltage is operational and is at the proper voltage level. The entire line of Power Sonics generators has been designed to be directly interchangeable with equipment previously manufactured by Westinghouse Electric Corp. and other magnetostrictive manufactured equipment. OVER VOLTAGE (Red) - Indicates that a fault has occurred in the high frequency circuit of the generator. OVER CURRENT (Red) - Indicates that the AC line current is too high from either a component or transducer problem. Front Panel Display The front panel displays multiple lights which indicate operational and trip conditions of the generator. Green LED's indicate ON conditions while Red LED's indicate trip conditions. The status of the lights directs the user to the probable cause of the current condition through instructions supplied with the generator. OVER TEMPERATURE (Red) - Indicates that the temperature of the heat sink is too high for proper operation. Optional Features A factory installed Microcontroller based timer with start/stop and reset feature. =
