EMERGENCY SHUTOFF and THERMAL MANAGEMENT

EMERGENCY SHUTOFF

When dealing with large currents, safety dictates that an easily accessible shutdown switch is available.
The PMC BOOSTER has shut a shutoff as the large button labelled "STOP". If this button is pressed, the
cell switch opens which terminates the experiment and any current being supplied to the cell.
If this button is pressed, it must be rotated and pulled back out to engage the booster again.

THERMAL MANAGEMENT

A fan is installed on-board of the PMC BOOSTER. If the temperature of the booster rises to a sufficient
level, this fan will start to help dissipate this heat. The airflow of the PMC CHS08A is designed in such a
way to properly ventilate the most extreme conditions. Therefore, in typical test conditions this fan will not
be active.
If the fan starts, it will stop when the temperature returns below the temperature threshold.
