Overview

The CAEN Mod. AG524 is a double width board (10 TE wide) that houses 6 Independent high voltage channels available with either positive or negative polarity. The channels share a Common Ground. The output voltage can be programmed and monitored in the 0 ÷ 12 kV range with 1 V monitor resolution. The Maximum current full scale is 100 μA, with 10 nA Iset/Imon monitor resolution.

Double width (10 TE wide), 6 channel for Mod. AG524

Consult our connectors reference page for technical information.

The board features the CPE HV output connectors and the relevant coaxial cable connectors (Mod. A997) are also available.

Independently programmable for each channel:

Output voltage
0 ÷ 12 kV step: 1 V
Current limit 0 ÷ 100 μA step: 10 nA
V Ramp up/down
1 ÷ 500 V/sec step: 1 V/sec
TRIP parameter If trip= INFINITE, “overcurrent” lasts indefinitely. TRIP range: 0 ÷ 999.9 s; 1000 s = Infinite step = 0.1 s

Safety features allows the module to perform as a current generator and includes:

Channels
can be enabled or disabled through the Global Interlock logic.
Overvoltage and Undervoltage warning when the output voltage differs from the programmed value.
Overcurrent detection when a channel attempts to exceed the programmed current limit, it signalled to be in “overcurrent” and enter in a TRIP status. The output voltage is varied to keep the current below the programmed limit for a programmable TRIP time, then the channel is switched off. If TRIP is set to “constant current mode”, the channel behaves like a current generator.
Hardware VMAX
maximum output voltage can be set, via front panel potentiometer, at the same common value for all the board channels. VMAX value can be read out via software.
Safety Board Interlock this protection disables the HV generation when the HV outputs are not connected to their loads.

Accessories available:

  • HV coaxial cable connector (Mod. A997)
