  • Page 4: Introduction

    This manual applies to the Fraser IONFIX Compact Generator product range: • IONFIX Compact, 24 V DC input, 30 kV DC output, positive or negative output polarity. • IONFIX Compact, 85-264 V AC input, 30 kV DC output, positive or negative output polarity.
  • Page 5: Safety

    2. Safety Safety Concepts The Fraser IONFIX Compact is a high-voltage switched-mode power supply. It has been designed in accordance with the safety requirements of EN 62368-1:2014 (Audio/video, information and communication technology equipment, Part 1: Safety requirements). This standard is harmonised under the EU Low Voltage Directive and recognised by UL.
  • Page 6 Do not insert or remove high voltage connectors when the generator is powered or its output energised. • Any changes to the equipment without written consent of the manufacturer will invalidate the warranty and CE certification. © Fraser Anti-Static Techniques Ltd 2016...
  • Page 7: Use And Operation

    The IONFIX Compact has simple front-panel controls allowing the output voltage to be set precisely to match the process requirements. The output current is electronically limited, and this limit may be reduced if necessary to suit the particular application.

    4. Installation Checking on delivered equipment The equipment leaves our factory in suitable protective packaging. Please check that it is undamaged when it arrives. If there is visible damage contact the supplier immediately. Check that the parts which have been delivered are the same as you have ordered. Front panel rotation The front panel display and controls of the generator may be rotated by 180°...
  • Page 10 Note that the 4 sockets are internally connected in parallel. Ensure that any unused sockets are plugged with the supplied blanking plugs (Fraser P/N 730218) to prevent dirt ingress. • Do not route HV cables near to sharp metal components.
  • Page 11 Connect the power input cable to the generator. a. DC variant: connect +24 V to the left-hand terminal of the ‘Combicon’ pluggable terminal block (viewed from rear of generator), and 0 V to the right-hand terminal of the ‘Combicon’ pluggable terminal block. It is recommended to fit bootlace ferrules to the stripped ends of the 24 V input cable.

  • Page 15 With a voltage setpoint greater than 20 kV, the ‘Current Limited’ LED indicator will illuminate if the 20 W power limit is reached, even if the programmed current limit is not reached. To adjust the current limit, use the ‘Current –’ and ‘Current +’ to change the setpoint value. For example, if the current setpoint was reduced to 0.5 mA, the following would be displayed: If the current limit is adjusted whilst the HV output is enabled, the setpoint value followed by ‘SP’...

  • Page 17 Remote current limit If the remote current limit function is enabled, an ‘R’ will be added to the ‘SP’ or ‘OP’ after the current readout on the generator display. For example, with HV off and remote current limit enabled: With HV on and remote current limit enabled: If the front panel current limit adjustment buttons are pressed in this state, the following error message will be shown: If both the remote voltage setpoint and remote current limit are enabled, the following will be shown...

    The pins are numbered as shown below (viewed looking into socket on rear of generator): The corresponding 25-way D-type plug is Amphenol L717DB25P or equivalent. Any standard 25-way D-type connector, cable or breakout board can be used to make connections to the remote interface. © Fraser Anti-Static Techniques Ltd 2016...

  • Page 21 External voltage setpoint input (pins 3, 17, 18) The external voltage setpoint input (pin 3) allows the high voltage output level of the generator to be programmed by an analogue voltage signal. To use the remote voltage setpoint function, it must first be enabled by connecting pin 18 (external setpoint enable) to pin 17 (GND).
  • Page 22 The voltage monitor output is protected against short circuit to GND, and applied voltages up to +28 V. The output impedance of the signal driver circuit is approximately 150 Ω. The wiring example below shows a panel meter connected the remote voltage monitor output. © Fraser Anti-Static Techniques Ltd 2016...
  • Page 23 Remote current monitor output (pin 5) The remote current monitor output (pin 5) allows the present output current of the generator to be monitored remotely. This signal may be fed into a PLC system, or used to drive a panel meter (10 V full- scale sensitivity).
  • Page 24 To provide a PLC-compatible signal, connect +24 V (supplied externally or from pin 6) to pin 9, and the PLC input to pin 22. The wiring example below shows the overload output connected to a PLC system using an external power source to provide the 24 V signal level. © Fraser Anti-Static Techniques Ltd 2016...
