Versatile Operation
The Plasmaloc Series consists of six generators: three PL
models which cover the frequency range of 25-125kHz; and three PL-HF models which cover the range of 90-460kHz.
The optimum frequency for a specific plasma reaction is
easily selected with the front panel variable frequency control. Maximum forward power output ranges from 750 to 3,200
Watts, depending on the model. The front panel power meter displays either the forward power leaving the generator or the load power absorbed by the plasma.

Precise Power Control
Precise power control is provided by a sampling of the output power, using a directional coupler. Both forward and load power leveling are provided and may be set from either
the front panel or by a process computer through the accessory input. Setability of the plasma power is better than ±0.4% of the maximum rated power, and absolute accuracy is better than ±1.5% of the maximum rated power.
To eliminate the need for an external impedance matching network, each Plasmaloc generator includes an internal variable seven-position step transformer, designed for
plasma impedances between 50 and front panel plasma impedance control knob and observing the increase in load power, an optimum match can easily be achieved.
A high degree of operational reliability is assured through the use of conservatively rated solid state components. ENI's
hybrid combining of power amplifier modules couples the output of a number of transistors to achieve the total generator
