CE301AXE, CE301BXE, and CE301CXE

Xenon Power Supply Specification

The CE300 power supply is designed to run xenon arc lamps in a constant-current mode. The supply is designed to run the Osram XBO 300 and Cermax family lamps. The output power is adjustable from 270 to 315 Watts with a built-in potentiometer. EMI line-filtering is built-in to the unit. The CE260BXE is the same as the A-model except it does not have Y-capacitors in the line filter section. The CE301BXE has smaller Y-capacitors to meet the 100 mA leakage requirement of many U.S. hospitals.

Output power: 270 - 315 Watts
Output voltage compliance: 12.0 to 17.0 V operating, >110 VDC during ignition.
Output regulation: output power held to within +/- 5% over all input, output, and environmental conditions.
