The 215 is a high voltage power supply designed for use with photomultiplier, lead sulphide and lead selenide detectors. The output is continuously variable between -300V and -1500V at up to 2mA and is fully short-circuit protected.

The output voltage can be monitored on the 217 display and set using a front panel operated adjustment, or can be controlled externally by application of a dc level. This can be programmable when used in conjunction with the 262 unit.
The unit can be switched off independently from the 217 bin by a front panel toggle switch or remotely which provides a shut down facility that can be used with a microswitch in safety interlock systems.

Specification
Output: 350 to 1500V negative at up to 1.5mA from a HV BNC connector. Adjusted by potentiometer or internal control voltage.
Stability: 100 ppm/°C, 25 ppm for 10% change in line voltage
Ripple and noise: 100 ppm pk-pk
External control: 0 to 10V via 3.5mm jack socket
On/Off switch: Independent from main bin. Mounted on front panel of 215.
Display: HV output is displayed on analogue/digital display of 217.
