We provide a soldering/programming/calibration service, for researchers who would like to get a fully functional device without having to assemble one. The hvps-x high voltage power supply is not a commercial product. It hasn’t gone through certification and must be considered as a research instrument. Hence, we are not selling hvps-x units, but are providing an assembly and calibration service. This is an important difference.
Prices do not include shipping. Shipping from new New Zealand is unfortunately quite pricey. Indicative price: NZD 90 (~Eur 50) for a delivery to Europe with the cheaper service. Prices also do not include local import sales (GST/VAT) and/or import taxes that you may have to pay on your end.
Make-it-easy package
This is the all-inclusive option. You get a fully functional unit with calibration and functional report and a back-up configuration file.
- All components and the printed circuit board.
- Soldering of the surface mount devices
- Testing that the microcontroller, flashing the firmware, and performing the initial configuration
- Soldering the low-voltage through-hole components
- Testing the low-voltage side of the board
- Soldering the high voltage components, including shielding the high voltage DC-DC converter
- Testing of the high-voltage components
- Potting the high voltage section of the board with a 3D printed enclosure and silicone elastomer
- Calibration of the output of the power supply with a high voltage probe. Measurement of the output over 21 different voltage and storing the parameters of the best calibration method in the unit. You are providing with a back-up file of the settings, and all the calibration data.
- Measurement of the voltage regulation PID and the switching speed of the optocouplers. Graphs of results provided.
- Includes required accessory to use the hvps-x:
- International 12V power supply with multi-blade input.
- Pair of 5kV (or >5kV for 6kV hvps-x) wires with 2mm banana plug and crocodile clip termination. 1 black, 1 red.
- USB micro cable
- 3D printed protection enclosure.
Price: ~NZD 1690 / ~EUR 940 / ~USD 1030 (for a 4kV unit. Marginal price difference depending on voltage rating. Please ask for a quotation for definitive pricing).
