2. Safety Precautions
Before proceeding any further through this manual, this section should be read thoroughly to
protect yourself and your equipment.
1. To properly operate this power supply, only electric cords with a dedicated ground wire are
to be used.
2. The electric cord providing power to the machine should be plugged in only to a grounded
outlet that complies with U.L. and/or OSHA safety requirements, or local regulations.
3. Do not open the power supply cabinet, there are no user serviceable parts. This power
supply contains components that could remain charged and pose an electric shock hazard
for an extended period of time after AC power has been removed from the unit.
4. Remove AC power from this unit before moving the power supply or servicing the power
supply (including output bus wiring changes) or any equipment connected to this power
supply. Follow your lock out / tag out procedures to ensure that power is not unexpectedly
applied.
5. This unit contains no user serviceable parts. All repairs or modifications to this unit must be
done at the Dynatronix factory, or at an authorized Dynatronix Service Center, or by a
qualified service technician. See the Table of Contents section for a list of authorized
service centers in the USA and Europe.
6. DO NOT wear metal objects on hands or wrists while working with this power supply.
7. If the equipment is used in a manner other than mentioned in this manual, the protection
provided by this equipment may be impaired.
C A U T I O N
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK, UNIT MUST BE CONNECTED
TO EARTH GROUND.
REMOVE POWER BEFORE
OPENING PANELS.

8. This symbol indicates a protective earth connection.
9. This symbol means to consult the product manual for additional information.
10.This label indicates where high AC or DC voltages are located inside of the unit. Be aware
of these locations if power is needed for any work being done inside of unit. Not doing so
may endanger yourself and your equipment.
11.This label indicates where components or surfaces are operating at temperatures which
might cause injury either directly (burn) or indirectly (involuntarily moving body into another
danger). This label is used most often on the output transistor heatsinks.
12.If this power supply weighs more than 40lb / 18kg (see Section 4 - Specifications), it must
be lifted by two persons. Always use proper lifting technique. If power supply was shipped
with a fork lift base (the base must be provided by Dynatronix and must be physically
connected to the power supply housing) use a fork lift to move the power supply. Secure
the power supply to prevent the power supply from falling or tipping.

13.Use of this product for purposes other than those specified in this manual is not
recommended. Use for other purposes may give unexpected results or cause damage to
the power supply and/or the system it is being used in.
3. Functional Overview
The 36kW Diamond power supply contains two 18kW power modules. Each 18kW power module
contains a boost converter and a buck converter. The boost converter works in current mode
control to provide power factor correction. The output of the boost converter provides power to
the buck converter. The buck converter provides the power supply output with current or voltage
regulation modes. Control of both converters is tightly coupled with a digital control system.
The power supply comes with a remote control panel. The standard remote control panel has a
volt meter, amp meter, status indicators, function buttons, and digital encoders to adjust settings.
The optional graphic touch screen control panel provides an intuitive graphical user interface with
easy access to menus and power supply settings. Both control panels provide digital control
signals, a serial host port, and an optional analog control card for external control.
This switch mode power supply provides DC, pulse, or complex waveform outputs. The DC and
pulse settings can be adjusted using the control panel. Complex waveforms are designed using
the provided computer software application. Multiple complex waveforms can be downloaded to
the control panel and then selected to run using the control panel menus.
The following is a general list of features.
DC, Pulse, or custom waveform output
Programmable ramp output (waveform amplitude ramp)
Manual Cycle Control
Real Time Cycle Control (RTC)
Amp Time Cycle Control (ATC)
User Configurable Totalizer(s) (one per output channel)
Fan speed based on internal temperature
Configurable power fail recovery
Remote operate/standby control (isolated digital input)
Host port control (RS485)
Optional analog control (4-20mA, 05V, 0-10V)
Digital calibration
Optional color graphics display with touch screen (5.7” QVGA)
