    Step 4. Connect the other side of coaxial cable to the load. The cone teflon insulator is used at the cable end to prevent the discharge between central cable wire and the cable braid (see fig.2). You may use additional wires for connection: solder the high voltage signal wire to the central cable w...

    Step 5. Switch on the high voltage by hv on/hv off switch. The output high voltage pulses should be generated. Increase the amplitude and frequency by corresponding knobs as necessary. The output pulses frequency in internal triggering mode is about proportional to the rotation angle of frequency re...

    Overheat mode npg-15/2000(n) generator has 75 ohm impedance coaxial output connector. If the generator operates on unmatched load with impedance not equal to 75 ohm then part of energy inevitably reflects from the load, returns back to generator, and dissipate in it. About all of generated energy re...

    Generator, i.E. Internal generator frequency sets the upper limit for external triggering pulses frequency. Please rotate frequency regulation knob to the most clockwise position to allow the maximum external triggering pulses frequency. The minimum repetition rate is 50 hz. The lower frequency resu...
