Introduction
1.2.4 - Cooler Power Supply Block
The iXon3 system is designed to be powered from a PS-20 external Power Supply Block (PSB) which is used to supply
power to the Thermoelectric cooler within the camera. The PSB requires an AC mains input between
90-264 V, 47-63 Hz and a maximum supply current of either 1A @ 115V or 0.5A @ 230V. The output of the
PS-20 is 7.5V DC at 4.0A maximum. The PS-20 is tted with a 3-pin IEC connector for the electrical supply input and the
wall socket must be connected to the building’s protective earth system. The connection to the iXon3 is made via a 2.1
mm jack connector.
NOTE:
1. Cooling is only available when the PSB is connected to the camera.
2. In the UK (or other countries using UK standard electrical systems), the mains input into the PS-20 must be
tted with a 240V 5A fuse.
1.2.5 - Software
Your iXon3 may have been supplied with Andor Solis or Andor iQ software, or with the Andor SDK. However it is also
compatible with a range of 3rd party software options offering optimized acquisition control and analysis functionality.
