I — INTRODUCTION
SCOPE OF MANUAL This Quick Start Guide covers
the installation and operation of the Kepco HSP Series of
voltage and current stabilized d-c power supplies. Full
specifications are listed in the applicable Operator’s Man-
ual that can be downloaded from the Kepco web site at
www.kepcopower.com/support/opmanls.htm/#hsp
FACTORY DEFAULTS This guide covers only units as
shipped from the factory with the three DIP switches set to
default configuration (see Figure 1). For other configura-
tions, refer to HSP Operator Manual.
DESCRIPTION The HSP power supply (Figure 1-1) is
basically a voltage and current stabilized d-c source with a
relatively sharp crossover between voltage and current
mode operation.
HSP power supplies are nominally rated at either 1000 or
1500 Watts of output power, and include active power fac-
tor correction (PFC). HSP 1000W power supplies are
designed to operate over the universal a-c power mains
voltage range of 90-277V (47-63Hz), with operation from
125-420V d-c also available. HSP 1500W products provide
full power over the a-c mains range of range of 180-277V
a-c, and 1000W output power from 90-132V a-c; contact
Kepco for information on operation over other source volt-
age ranges. Cooling is provided via an internal d-c fan.
HSP permits adjustment of both output voltage (V
O
) and
current limit (I
MAX
), either by internal (front panel pot) or
external (resistance or voltage) methods, selected via DIP
switches accessed through the top of the unit. Protection
against overvoltage, overcurrent and overtemperature fail-
ures is provided.
FIGURE 1. DIP SWITCH FACTORY DEFAULTS
The HSP power supply is specifically designed for use with
Kepco RA 60 or similar plug-in rack adapters as a hot
replaceable module in a redundant power system. Bench
top operation is also supported. Forced current sharing and
output blocking diodes enhance power system reliability.
Mechanical keying eliminates the risk of incorrect module
insertion. Tool-operated latches on the front panel guard
against casual removal of an operating module.
OPTIONS M models include a digital meter which dis-
plays either voltage or current as determined by a front
panel switch. Another switch allows display of either
actual HSP Output or the setpoint. B models are intended
for battery charging applications, and include a Float/
Equalize switch to preset two different voltage values
using two separate front panel adjustment pots.
