  • Page 8: Introduction

    Introduction Model 480C02 & model 480E09 are rugged, portable, power sources for ICP sensors. These models are nearly ® identical except model 480C02 is unity gain 1:1 only with no adjustment, while model 480E09 has the additional feature of 3-position gain adjustment (1/10/100). They are powered internally by three replaceable batteries and provide constant current excitation to the charge amplifier within ICP sensors (or to in-line and adaptor style ®...
  • Page 9: Description

    Red (fault, electrical short) Yellow (fault, low battery) EXT PWR – use with 488A03 AC Power Source Gain Select – Rotary Switch Green (connected & no fault) Figure 2: Model 480E09 Signal Conditioner Description Models 480C02 / 480E09 contain three, PP3 size, 9 volt batteries connected in series to provide DC power to internal electronics which provide regulation for approximately 2.6 mA of constant current power.
  • Page 10: Operation

    Operation Internal electronics include a capacitor and resistor that decouples the sensor output signal from the DC power. With no sensor connected, move power switch to “ON” position. The front panel voltmeter measures the battery voltage with full scale set at 27 volts (+27 volts for new batteries), see Figure 1. When an ICP sensor is ®...
  • Page 11 If the sensor amplifier and/or cable are damaged to short open, the meter will indicate in the full scale (yellow) area. Should the sensor amplifier and/or cable be damaged to short closed, the meter will indicate zero volts (red area). Immediately after connecting readout instrument, (oscilloscope, meter, recorder, etc.) to the output jack, the 47 µF coupling capacitor will begin charging through the internal resistor and input resistance of the readout instrument.
  • Page 12 DC Coupling for Low-Frequency Response With the 480C02 / 480E09 connected as shown in Figure 5, the low frequency response of the coupling circuit is determined by the relationship in Equation 2. This requires use of a BNC Tee. Figure 6 below provides a comparison of AC vs DC coupling the same signal.
  • Page 13: Performance Limits

    Performance Limits Output Voltage Limits Certain ICP sensors are capable of 10-volt output voltage swing. Models 480C02 / 480E09 with 27 volt supply will allow the positive-going side of the signal to go to +14 volts. The negative signal side is capable of -8 volts assuming a 10 volt turn-on for the sensor.
  • Page 14: Optional Power Connections

    Battery Life & Replacement Typical battery life is 100 hours at gain of 1 or 40 hours at gain of 10 or 100 when using high quality alkaline batteries, assuming the unit is turned off when not in use. When a BATT Test fail occurs, find and carefully remove the Philips head screw on the back of model 480C02.
  • Page 15: Warranty

    Warranty PCB instrumentation is warranted against defective material and workmanship for 1 year unless otherwise expressly specified. Damage to instruments caused by incorrect power or misapplication, is not covered by warranty. If there are any questions regarding power, intended application, or general usage, please consult with your local sales contact or distributor.
