Description
The SCA-2008 Simmer Supply is an advanced device designed to maintain a low-current discharge in flashlamps, significantly enhancing their lifespan and operational stability. This simmer supply is an indispensable component for ensuring the reliable performance of laser systems, where consistent and stable light output is critical. By providing a steady simmer current, the SCA-2008 helps to prevent the damaging effects of frequent high-voltage ignition, thereby extending the life of the flashlamp and maintaining optimal performance. Constructed to operate efficiently with an input voltage of 230V AC, this device is capable of delivering a maximum output voltage of 200V and a current of up to 800mA. With a power capacity of 70W, the SCA-2008 is designed to meet the demands of various laser applications, offering a restrike rate of approximately 3 Hz. This makes it suitable for laser systems that require either serial or external triggering, providing versatility and adaptability in diverse operational environments. The SCA-2008 Simmer Supply is engineered with user convenience in mind, featuring automatic voltage adjustment according to the current set point and the V/A curve of the flashlamp. This ensures optimal performance without the need for constant manual recalibration. Additionally, the device is equipped with robust protection mechanisms, including safeguards against short circuits and open circuits, enhancing its reliability and safety in use. With no requirement for external cooling and the ability to operate in a wide range of temperatures, the SCA-2008 is both practical and durable, making it an ideal choice for maintaining the integrity and efficiency of laser systems.
