Modular Design
Through the introduction of additional 5 kW units,
the output power of the standard Carrera 5 can be extended up
to 15 kW. This enables, for the first time, higher power applications
to benefit from primary switched technology. A load share arrangement
ensures that the power output is equally sourced where more than
one 5kW unit is installed.
ARC Management
Through a combination of an intelligent arc recognition
system and the high switching frequency of the power unit, it
is ensured that should any arcs occur they are extinguished extremely
quickly. This minimizes the additional energy that would otherwise
continue to fed into the arc. Full power is returned within 3
ms to allow the evaporation process to continue. With the aid
of a user-set limit for the acceptable arc rate, process integrity
can be maintained for processes such as ion assisted deposition.

Supplies
The
Carrera series of power supplies uses primary switched mode technology
to offer high efficiency and fast arc detection and recovery in
a compact unit. Based on a modular design, the Carrera can be configured
for maximum outputs ranging from 3kW to 15kW.
