    LOAD resistance. These parameters can easily be adapted to meet special requirements. Contact Avtech (info@avtechpulse.com) with your special application! To specify the two channel option add the suffix -D to the model number. To specify the regular DC offset option, add the suffix -OS to the model number.
  • Page 7: Regulatory Notes

    If interference is observed, check that appropriate well-shielded cabling is used on the output connectors. Contact Avtech (info@avtechpulse.com) for advice if you are unsure of the most appropriate cabling. Also, check that your load is adequately shielded. It may be necessary to enclose the load in a metal enclosure.

    Directive 2002/96/EC categories 1-7 and 10, as stated in the "Article 2 - Scope" section of Directive 2002/95/EC. DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC (WEEE) European customers who have purchased this equipment directly from Avtech will have completed a “WEEE Responsibility Agreement” form, accepting responsibility for WEEE compliance (as mandated in Directive 2002/96/EC of the European Union and local laws) on behalf of the customer, as provided for under Article 9 of Directive 2002/96/EC.
  • Page 9: Ac Power Supply Regulatory Notes

    AC POWER SUPPLY REGULATORY NOTES This instrument converts the AC input power to the +36V DC voltage that powers the internal circuitry of this instrument using a Tamura AAD130SD-80-A switching power supply. According to the manufacturer, the Tamura AAD130SD-80-A has the following certifications: UL60950-1 IEC60950 -1...
  • Page 10: Installation

    INSTALLATION VISUAL CHECK After unpacking the instrument, examine to ensure that they have not been damaged in shipment. Visually inspect all connectors, knobs, and handles. Confirm that a power cord and an instrumentation manual (this manual), are with the instrument. If the instrument has been damaged, file a claim immediately with the company that transported the instrument.

    5. Do not attempt any repairs on the instrument, beyond the fuse replacement procedures described in this manual. Contact Avtech technical support (see page 2 for contact information) if the instrument requires servicing. Service is to...
  • Page 12: Environmental Conditions

    ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS This instrument is intended for use under the following conditions: 1. indoor use; 2. altitude up to 2 000 m; 3. temperature 5 °C to 40 °C; 4. maximum relative humidity 80 % for temperatures up to 31 °C decreasing linearly to 50 % relative humidity at 40 °C;...
  • Page 13: Fuses

    FUSES This instrument contains four fuses. All are accessible from the rear-panel. Two protect the AC prime power input, and two protect the internal DC power supplies. The locations of the fuses on the rear panel are shown in the figure below: Fuses #1 and #2 Fuse #4 Fuse #3...
  • Page 14: Dc Fuse Replacement

    DC FUSE REPLACEMENT The DC fuses may be replaced by inserting the tip of a flat-head screwdriver into the fuse holder slot, and rotating the slot counter-clockwise. The fuse and its carrier will then pop out. FUSE RATINGS The following table lists the required fuses, for units without the -D option: Recommended Replacement Part Nominal Fuses...
  • Page 15: Front Panel Controls

    FRONT PANEL CONTROLS The exact layout of the front panel will depend on the options ordered Note: not all units will have all of the controls shown above 1. POWER Switch. This is the main power switch. When turning the instrument on, there may be a delay of several seconds before the instrument appears to respond.
  • Page 16 This overload indicator is only likely to come on in two situations:  Briefly at startup. This is not a cause for concern.  When the load impedance is too low (< 50 Ω). In this case, turn off the instrument and connect the proper load.
  • Page 17: Rear Panel Controls

    REAR PANEL CONTROLS 1) AC POWER INPUT. An IEC-320 C14 three-pronged recessed male socket is provided on the back panel for AC power connection to the instrument. One end of the detachable power cord that is supplied with the instrument plugs into this socket.
  • Page 18: General Information

    GENERAL INFORMATION BASIC CONTROL The AV-110D-PS is a DC-1 MHz variable-gain linear amplifier. The gain is variable from 0 to +15, and is adjusted by rotating the “GAIN” control. Units with the -INV option can also be switched to inverting mode, where the gain is variable from 0 to -15.
  • Page 19: Operational Check

    2) Set the signal generator to produce a ±2V, 10 kHz waveform. (The input impedance of the AV-110D-PS is 1 kΩ). Connect a cable from the SYNC connector of the signal generator to the TRIG input of an oscilloscope. Set the oscilloscope to trigger externally.
  • Page 20 5) Set the gain control to minimum (0.0). Turn on the amplifier and the signal generator. 6) Rotate the gain control to its maximum setting. The Channel B waveform should increase to ±30V, and have a shape similar to that of the Channel A waveform. 7) This completes the operational check.
  • Page 21: Mechanical Information

    There are no user-adjustable internal circuits. For repairs other than fuse replacement, please contact Avtech (info@avtechpulse.com) to arrange for the instrument to be returned to the factory for repair. Service is to be performed solely by qualified service personnel.
  • Page 22: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE REGULAR MAINTENANCE This instrument does not require any regular maintenance. On occasion, one or more of the four rear-panel fuses may require replacement. All fuses can be accessed from the rear panel. See the “FUSES” section for details. CLEANING If desired, the interior of the instrument may be cleaned using compressed air to dislodge any accumulated dust.
