VPS6 Power Supply |
|
I/O Module | Each lamp system has an Input/Output module to collect remote interlock and control information. Two I/O configurations are available (see below). |
Customer I/O Module | For installations where lamps are controlled as a single group. |
Multi-Row I/O Module | For installations requiring more than one row or control group; up to three groups can be supported by one module. The I/O Module provides interlock connections for:
|
VPS I600 and VPS I250 |
|
All specifications are for a 10.5 in. (270 mm) single lamp system. Larger systems are made by adding more irradiators and power supplies. Irradiator modules placed end-to-end form illumination systems of unlimited length, i.e. multiples of 10.5 in. (270 mm). Items with an asterisk (*) increase proportionately with the number of lamps in the system. | |
