• If the power supply is
≤ 190V AC, CPC 100 cannot provide the full output
power at the 800A AC output.
The same applies when an external current booster is used. Therefore, in
order to gain the full output power, provide a sufficient power supply
(190V ... 240V AC).
General
• Before connecting or disconnecting test objects and/or cables, turn off
CPC 100 by either the POWER ON/OFF switch or the Emergency Stop
button. Never connect or disconnect a test object while the outputs are
active.
• Make sure that a test object’s terminals that are to be connected to CPC 100
do not carry any voltage potential. During a test, the only power source for a
test object may be CPC 100.
• At their output sockets and especially in the cables connected to them, in
operation the high-current 400A DC and 800A AC outputs generate a
significant amount of heat (approx. 300W/m at 800A). To prevent burns, use
gloves when touching the cables while in operation or a short while after.
• Do not insert objects (for example, screwdrivers, etc.) into any input/output
socket.
• Never use the test cards Quick and Resistance to measure the resistance
of windings with a high inductance because turning off the DC source results
in life-threatening voltage levels.
For this kind of measurement only use the special winding resistance test
card RWinding!
Caution: The connector "Ext. Booster" is always galvanically connected to
mains, regardless whether or not an external booster is selected on
the software tab Options | Device Setup, the green warning
warning light (0) is on, the outputs are turned off or the Emergency
Stop button is pressed.
Handle with extreme caution. Do not use any other booster cables
than the ones supplied by OMICRON.
Note: Even if you switched off CPC 100, wait until the red I/O warning
light is fully extinguished.
As long as this warning light is lit, there is still voltage and/or current
potential on one or more of the outputs.
