2. Description
The 0 – 500 V DC power supply provides four inde-
pendently adjustable DC voltages, and is especially
intended for operating electron tubes, including
Helmholtz coils.
The DC voltages are stabilised and regulated, float-
ing and galvanically isolated from one another,
short circuit proof and secure from external volt-
ages The output voltages are shown by four ana-
logue displays.
The DC power supply U33000-115 is for operation
with a mains voltage of 115 V (±10%), and the unit
U33000-230 is for operation with a mains voltage
of 230 V (±10%).

4.1 General information
•
Before switching on the DC power supply, set
all four voltage regulators to zero (turn fully to
the left).
•
Connect the power supply to the experimental
setup.
•
Do not switch the power supply on until the
experiment has been fully assembled.
•
Changes to the experimental setup must only
be made with the power supply switched off.
•
Set the required voltages.
•
Before switching off the DC power supply, set
the voltage regulators to zero again (turn fully
to the left).
4.2 Changing the fuse
•
Turn off the power switch and unplug the
mains plug.
•
Unscrew the fuse holder on the rear side of the
housing with a screwdriver.
•
Replace the fuse and reinsert the holder in its
socket.
