HCK Series high voltage AC-DC capacitor chargers

The HCK series are highly-stable DC power supplies, designed specially to meet the requirements of capacitor charging and capacitor conditioning. They feature a robust output resistor to be able to withstand the demands of a pulsed load.  The control circuit is designed for fast transitions from constant current to constant voltage operation.

The equipment is suitable for both continuous and pulsed charging, this is achieved using an adjustable constant current without overshoot. Capacitors with a resistive component are also suitable as loads. Usually, an external protective resistor is not required. It is, however, recommended for applications with very high levels of stored energy.
