Spellman’s XRV series of X-Ray high voltage power supplies
sets the standard for compact 1.8kW to 6.0kW high perfor-
mance X-Ray inspection generators. Spanning an output volt-
age range of 160kV to 450kV in negative positive or bipolar
output configurations there’s a model available for virtually
every application requirement.
Active power factor correction circuitry reduces input cur-
rent requirements while minimizing line related EMI. Spellman’s
proprietary inverter topology allows for unprecedented efficien-
cies and power densities. A solid encapsulated high voltage
section further reduces size and weight and provides reliable
maintenance free operation.
DSP based SMT control circuitry provides your choice of
USB Ethernet and RS-232 along with analog interfacing
simplifying OEM system integration. The two DC output current
regulated filament power supplies are controlled via sophisti-
cated emission current regulation circuitry to provide accurate
and stable X-Ray tube currents. Comprehensive fault diagnos-
tic circuitry and Arc Sense Arc Quench and Arc Count func-
tionality is also incorporated into this compact space saving
X-Ray generator.

GUI CONTROL SOFTWARE FOR XRV
The GUI is specifically designed for controlling XRV series
power supplies. As an alternative to the analog control the
GUI will allow the user to control all necessary functions of
the HVPS from a user-friendly windows based menu.
Additionally the GUI can be use as a diagnostic tool when
the HVPS is controlled via the analog interface.
Features of the GUI control:
•Automatic warm-up X-ray tube
•Max watts operation
•Timed or Continuous Exposure modes
•Configuration menu for user
options setting of HVPS
•Fault and status monitor

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Device Classification
The device described herein is a Security Radiological Power Supply. Using Annex H of the
“Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory
Use”, EN61010-1, we have concluded that the model XRV SERIES is classified as a Class I
device. Based on our analysis, the device makes no protection against the ingress of water.
This device is designed for continuous operation. The device is required to be connected to
protective earth ground.
1.2. Intended Use
The XRV SERIES is a negative output 3kW or bipolar output 4.5KW high voltage switching
power supply which incorporates the latest in high frequency, high power switching
technology used to drive an x-ray tube, as well as to serve as a source of a reliable high
voltage for other type of loads. The Power Supply operates from 180-264 Vac 50/60Hz
power line. The Power Supply is air-cooled with 4.7 ” fan located on the Rear Panel. Air is
pulled in through filtered slots in front of the unit and exits in the rear of the HVPS Enclosure.
The Power Supply is designed to meet the FDA safety requirements Title 21, part 1020,
section 20 (21 CFR 1020.40 Cabinet X-ray Systems) as used in the NDT application.
1.3. Interferences Between Equipment
The device was designed and manufactured to minimize electromagnetic or other
interferences. Tests have been performed to evaluate potential risks that could originate
from the device itself or the surrounding environment. All test results were acceptable, and
there has been no evidence of interference in its intended application.
1.4. Device Description
The Unit provides a high voltage potential for the cathode X-ray tube with two separate
filament supplies. There are two basic power supply sections for this purpose:
(Single-ended version) negative or positive high voltage output, continuously
programmable from 0 to Maximum kV DC and with a maximum operating rated specified
current.
(Bipolar version) positive and negative high voltage outputs, continuously programmable
from 0 to Maximum kV DC and with a maximum operating rated specified current.
Dual DC X-ray tube filament supply, floating at the high voltage potential, programmable
from 0 to Maximum ADC. User selectable filament supply has two separate outputs, one
for the small filament and another large filament.
XRV SERIES Page 3 118116-001 REV C

Both outputs connect to the x-ray tube through a single modified three-pin HV receptacle
(J1). The outputs are designed to drive through a shielded HV cable (cable supplied by
customer).
The Power Supply is computer controlled via RS232, USB, Ethernet or an Analog User I/O
available through a 25 pin DB connector. External Interlock and Warning are accomplished
via the rear panel connector J2.
2. WARNINGS & SAFETY INFORMATION
This power supply produces extremely high voltages. DO NOT attempt to adjust any load
connection with high voltage on. DO NOT attempt to open the power supply enclosure unless
you have studied the manual and know the internal layout. Of course, you should never reach
into the enclosures unless the power has been disconnected and you are sure that the output is
fully discharged. Be sure of your ground connections.
Assume that high voltage is always ON is the best way to avoid hazard to personnel. Always
shut off the supply circuit breaker(s) and follow an appropriate grounding procedure to
discharge the output before touching any exposed connections.
DO NOT rely on the unit's instrumentation or controls to determine that the output is safely
discharged. The sensors are driven by amplifiers, which are powered by an internal low voltage
power supply, as are the indicator LEDs. There may be dangerous voltages present on the
output, even if the unit appears "dead".
If not manually discharged, the output may remain charged long after power is disconnected!
Be sure that you have a complete understanding of at least all of the information in this manual
before attempting installation. DO NOT allow anyone else to perform any part of the installation
process or attempt servicing of the power supply unless they have also read the manual. If
there are any unanswered questions, please do not hesitate to contact the manufacturer for
further information.
DO NOT obstruct the cooling inlets or outlets; overheating may result, which may damage the
power supply.

3. UNPACKING
Remove the unit from its shipping container, but do not discard the packing materials; retain the
packing materials and carton in case the unit needs to be returned. Inspect the unit for dents or
other damage, which may have occurred during shipping. In the unusual event that shipment
damage has occurred, contact the transportation company and the manufacturer immediately.
If additional materials have been enclosed in the shipping crate (such as cables etc.), inspect
them as well. Then put them aside and DO NOT proceed until the operation manual has been
completely read and understood.

4. INSTALLATION
Install the Power Supply in its designated place. Make sure that AC power is off to Power
Supply. Turning power to the unit is the last step of the procedure.
Only persons who are properly trained are allowed to carry out the installation

4.5. Supply Voltage
Before the XRV Power Supply is installed, it is critical that the unit meets the correct input
voltage level. It is not field selectable.
To meet the safety requirements the Power Supply has two separate input voltages. The
Auxiliary supply is fed at all times and the Main supply is interrupted via a door switch of
safety contactor when the High Voltage output is not required.
