A remotely controlled high voltage power supply system for multiwire and drift chambers

The authors describe a remotely controlled power supply multichannel system delivering a current of 200 mu A per channel up to 5.5 kV, and allowing voltage setting as well as current monitoring. The system is presently used in the charmed meson photoproduction experiment (NA1) at SPS, CERN. The nove...

description The authors describe a remotely controlled power supply multichannel system delivering a current of 200 mu A per channel up to 5.5 kV, and allowing voltage setting as well as current monitoring. The system is presently used in the charmed meson photoproduction experiment (NA1) at SPS, CERN. The novel characteristics of the system are: 16 independent channels, under remote control of a standard CAMAC- minicomputer interface, and a console that allows the manual control and read-out of a maximum of 16 systems. This system can usefully replace the conventional power supplies, eliminating high voltage distribution encumbrance and often several kilometers of high voltage cables. (4 refs).
