The SolaHD MCR Series provides excellent noise ltering

and surge protection to protect connected equipment from

damage, degradation or misoperation. Combined with the

excellent voltage regulation inherent to our ferroresonant

design, they can increase the actual Mean Time Between

Failure (MTBF) of protected equipment. These units are a

perfect choice where dirty power caused by impulses, swell,

sags, brownouts and waveform distortion can lead to costly

downtime because of damaged equipment.

Regulation

SolaHD CVS Series power conditioners will hold output volt-

ages to ±1.0% or less with input variations as great as ±15%

(115 V ±15% or 120 V +10%/-20%). Units operated at less

than rated load will maintain approximately ±1% regulation

over a wider input line voltage variation. Output meets NEMA

voltage specications even when input voltage drops to 65%

of nominal. The output versus input voltage relationship for a

typical CVS is show in Figure A.

Figure A: Load Variation

Note: SolaHD MCR Series line regulations: ±3% for 60 Hz;

±5% for 50 Hz. The typical performances shown in Figure B

indicate that most of the residual changes take place near

the lower (95 V) and upper (130 V) ends of the input range.

It is possible to improve output regulation if line variations

remain within a restricted range near the center of the name-

plate range (for example, 100-120 V).

Figure B: Line Regulation

Normally, the output voltage will rise as the load is

decreased. Typical percentages for changes in resistive

load from full to zero load as shown below.

Input Characteristics

SolaHD power conditioners include a resonant circuit that

is energized whether or not it is serving load. The input

current at no load or light load may run 50% or more of the

full primary current. As a result, the temperature of the unit

may rise to substantially full-load level, even at light or no

load. Input power factor will average 90-100% at full load,

but may drop to about 75% at half load and 25% at no load.

In any case, the current is always leading. The input no load

watts are about 12.5% of the VA rating.

Frequency

Output voltage varies linearly with a change of frequency of

the input voltage. This change is about 1.5% of the

output voltage for each 1% change in input frequency and in

the same direction as the frequency change.

A constant voltage regulator will protect both itself and its

load against damage from excessive fault currents. Fusing

of load currents may not be necessary. The actual value of

short-circuit current varies with the specic design and

rating. Units may be operated indenitely at short-circuit.

This characteristic protects the unit itself as well as the load

and load circuit being served. Typical overload

performance is shown in Figure D.

Motor Loads

Because of the fast response time of the SolaHD circuit,

any current-limiting characteristic must be taken into

account for transient overloads such as motor starting and

solenoid operation. In general, the SolaHD constant voltage

regulator must have a capacity nearly equal to the maximum

demand made on it, even for an instant. To determine the

power rating of the regulator, peak motor-starting current or

solenoid inrush current should be measured or power factor

correcting capacitors should be used to reduce the starting

VA of the load.

Response Time

An important advantage of our SolaHD ferroresonant

transformer is its fast response time compared with other

types of AC regulators. Transient changes in supply voltage

are usually corrected within 1½ cycles or less; the output

voltage will not uctuate more than a few percent, even

during this interval.

Figure D: Overload Performance

Figure C: Power Factor

Power Factor

SolaHD power conditioners regulate any power factor load.

Output voltage is a function of load current and load power

factor (see Figure C). If lower voltage under lagging power

factor is objectionable, correction may be made with capaci-

tors at the load. “Median” value of output voltage will vary

from the nameplate rating if the load has a power

factor other than that for which the transformer was

designed. Load regulation will also be relatively greater as

the inductive load power factor is decreased (see Figure C).

However, the resulting median values of output voltage will

be regulated against supply line changes at any reasonable

load or load power factor.

Efficiency

The copper magnet wire and lamination material used in our

ferroresonant products are selected to achieve

efciencies of 90% or higher. Whether or not an external load

is being served, current will be drawn from the line whenever

the primary is energized, since the capacitor remains

connected in the circuit.

Overload and Short Circuits

When the load is increased beyond the regulator’s rated

value, a point is reached where the output voltage suddenly

collapses and will not regain its normal value until the load is

partially released. Under direct short circuit, the load current

is limited to approximately 150-200% of the rated full load

value and the input watts to less than 10% of normal.

Operating Characteristics of the CVS & MCR Series

Except as noted, all characteristics of SolaHD CVS products also apply to the MCR series.

Temperature

Our SolaHD ferroresonant power conditioners are very stable

with respect to temperature. The change in output voltage

is only 0.025%/°C. Units are factory adjusted to +2%/-0%

of nominal, with full load and nominal input voltage. This

adjustment to the high side of nominal is to compensate for

the natural temperature drift of about 1% that takes place

during initial turn-on or warm-up. When the unit warms up to

operating temperature, the voltage typically falls about 1%.

At a stable operating temperature, the output voltage will

change slightly with varying ambient temperatures. This shift

is equal to approximately 1% for each 40°C of temperature

change. The normal maximum temperature rise of a SolaHD

power conditioner may fall anywhere in the range of +40°C

to +110°C depending on the type and rating. The nominal

design ambient range is between -20°C and +50°C (-20°C

to +40°C for 70 - 1000 VA, 60 Hz portable models).

External Magnetic Field

In almost all applications, this effect may be disregarded.

Our exclusive SolaHD “wide outside leg” construction

reduces stray magnetic elds to a practical minimum. On

critical applications, care should be taken in orientation of

the core with respect to critical circuits to minimize the effect

of the eld.

Phase Shift

The phase difference which exists between input and

output voltages is in the range of 120 degrees to 140

degrees at full load. This phase difference varies with the

magnitude and power factor of the load, and to a lesser

extent, with changes in line voltage and load power factor.

Transient Protection

Our ferroresonant power conditioners protect input transients

(caused by lightning and load switching) from damaging the

sensitive electronic load. A typical surge protective device

(SPD) tries to “clamp” a transient by diverting it to ground.

A ferroresonant power conditioner “blocks” the transient.

This ‘blocking’ action is achieved by total physical separation

from input (primary) to output (secondary). Because of

this difference in operation, it is difcult to apply the same

specications to a ferroresonant power conditioner. Some

parallels can be made however.

One, is that under load, the let-through voltage of a

ferroresonant power conditioner (SPD refers to "clamping

voltage”) is less than 10 V above the point where the sine

wave would normally be at any given time. The ferroresonant

power conditioner is an “active tracking” suppressor with

several advantages. The Ferro power conditioner will not

shunt the transient to the ground line as SPD devices

typically do. Shunting the transient to ground can cause the

disturbance to be transmitted to other sensitive loads within

a facility. This can pose serious problems with electronic

or microprocessor-based equipment, especially if there is

poor grounding within a facility. Other advantages provided

by ferroresonant power conditioners include noise ltering,

ltering of harmonic distortion and protection against voltage

uctuations such as sags or swells. These features are not

provided by standard surge protection devices but are often

misrepresented or misused by SPD manufacturers trying to

market their product as a “Do All” power quality device.
