Specifications
You can monitor process values for the following:
target life timer, out-of-set point timer; over-
voltage timer, and over-current timer.
You can control the synchronization of multiple
independent units with the Pinnacle Plus+ Sync
Pulse source controls. With this feature, multiple
units may be synchronized at 0º. Additionally,
units connected for Sync Pulse operation can
share hard arcs.
By having your Pinnacle Plus+ supply
reconfigured at the factory, the unit can become a
building block in a master/slave system, thereby
allowing Pinnacle Plus+ power installations of
greater size than 10 kW.
You can select one of eight target-life counters
from the active front panel, Pinnacle Remote
Active Panel, User port, or serial (Host) port.
Target life can be monitored from the Pinnacle
Remote Active Panel, the active front panel, and
the serial port.
Note: The User port has priority when selecting
targets.
• You can monitor micro arc density and hard
arc density from the Pinnacle Remote Panel,
the active front panel, and the serial (Host)
port.
• You can change arc trip level voltage. You
can enable or disable micro arc handling but
hard arc handling is always enabled.
• Monitoring options include: arc count per
second and arc count per run. Additionally,
you can have the unit indicate when a set
number of hard arcs have occurred in the
process run.
200 µJ/ kW with micro arc handling active.
