1.1 SCOPE OF MANUAL
This Operator's Manual covers the installation and operation of the Ke pco HSF 600W Series of
Switching Power Supplies. This manual covers only standard (no suffix) and Option C models. For
service information, write directly to: Kepco Inc., 131-38 Sanford Avenue, Flushing, New York,
11355, U.S.A. Please state Model Designation and Serial Number of your HSF Power Supply.
This information can be found on the nameplate of the unit.
1.2 DESCRIPTION
The Kepco HSF 600 Watt Series are hot swappable, high frequency switching, plug-in power supplies. Five models may be selected for outputs of 12V, 15V, 24V, 28V or 48V. They employ forward conversion and power factor correction and are designed to operate in a fault tolerant power
system with a nominal a-c input of 100V a-c to 240V a-c (input voltage range 85 to 264 Va-c), 5060 Hz (input frequency range 47-440Hz). A built-in current balancing cir cuit and OR-ing diodes
allow configuration for hot-swap and parallel-redundant N+1 operation.
These power supplies are designed to be used with Kepco's Series RA 19-4C rack adapte rs. The
RA 19-4C rack adapter accepts up to four 600W modules. All input/output connections are
through a 24-pin connector that plugs in to the rack adapter. All external connections described in
the following paragraphs are made through the rack adapter ’s I/O connector (see Figure 1).
1.3 OPTIONS
Option C models allow independent monitoring of output current of non-metered models by p roviding an integral sense resistor (Rs). Current monitoring is via ±IMO N assigned to p ins 9 (–) and
1 (+) of the RA 19-4C I/O connector: Monitored Output Current (Amps) = Voltage drop across Rs
(Volts) / Rs (Ohms) (see Table 2), where voltage drop across Rs is measured across ± IMON pins
(requires millivoltmeter, range 0 to 200mV). Accuracy is ±10%; contact Kepco if greater accuracy
is required. There is no isolation between ±IMON, alarm circuit an d d-c output. Refer to the RA
19-4C Manual for details.
RoHS-compliant models are indicated by HSF* (e.g., HSF 28*23).

3 FEATURES
3.1 DIP SWITCH CONFIGURATION
The HSF 600W Series incorporates two DIP switches, SW1 and SW2 (see Figu re 4), which must
be configured before the unit is installed in the rack adapter. The DIP switches control the following parameters:
• Positions 1 and 2 allow the output to be controlled either by the front panel Vadj control
(see PAR. 3.4.1) or by remote control using either an external trimpot or voltage source
(see PAR. 3.4.2). These positions can also be configured to allow a master/slave combination to be controlled either by the front panel Vadj control or by remote control using
either an external trimpot or voltage source (see PAR 3.4).
6 HSF 600W 042315
• Positions 3 and 4 either allow the front panel reset button to be used to reset the unit

after a fault or allow Remote on-off via mechanical switch or logic level (see PAR. 3.5).
• Positions 5 and 6 allows alarm signals to be produced from either internal relay, Form C
contacts (one NO, one NC) or open-collector logical alarm signals (see PAR. 3.7.2).
• For standard or C models position 8 of SW1 either disables (default) or enables the
visual alarm indication (see PAR. 3.7.1).
3.2 FRONT PANEL ACCESS.
The front panel provides a power ON/OFF switch controlling input power and a "VDC ON" indicator which lights green when the unit is operating. If the unit is connected in a parallel configuration,
the indicator lights red if the unit shuts off automatically, or the POWER switch is set to OFF.
CAUTION: DO NOT repeatedly toggle the power ON/OFF switch as this may cause unit to
fault.
NOTE: The ON/OFF switch must be set to OFF before removing unit from rack adapter.
If remote on-off is not enabled (see PAR. 3.5), the OUTPUT RESET button restores output power
in the event that overcurrent or overvoltage protection has tripped, or thermal overload or fan malfunction has occurred.
If remote voltage control (see PAR. 3.4.2) is not enabled, the front panel Vadj trimmer (see PAR.
3.4.1) provides adjustment of the output voltage within the limits specified in Table 2; test points
are available at the front panel for monitoring the DC output.

explanation of each.
3.3 KEYING
Keying of the HSF 600W is established at the factory. The output voltage determines which key
pins are installed (see Figure 3, Detail A). When the proper holes in the r ack adapter are b locked
by keying screws installed by the user, only a power supply of the correct voltage can be inserted
in the rack adapter slot. Refer to the RA 19-4C Manual for rack adapter keying instructions.
1. VDC ON/ALARM indicator. Lights green when unit is operating. Can be configured by DIP
switch to light red to indicate loss of output voltage in parallel configurations.
2. V.ADJ Output voltage adjustment tr immer: Adjusts output voltage within limits specified in
Table 2 (see PAR. 3.4.1). Not functional if remote voltage control is enabled (see PAR.
3.4.2).
3. DC output test points (+, –): Connect to voltmeter to monitor output voltage.
4. OUTPUT RESET switch. Used to recycle power in the event of an alarm condition (see PAR.
3.6). Not functional when remote on/off control is enabled (see PAR. 3.5).
5. POWER ON/OFF switch. Applies power to the unit. CAUTION: Power must be OFF before
unit is removed from the rack adapter.
6. Retaining Latches (2). Prevents inadvertent removal of unit from rack adapter (see PAR.
3.9)
FIGURE 5. FRONT PANEL CONTROLS, INDICATORS AND TEST POINTS
3.4 OUTPUT VOLTAGE CONTROL
Output Voltage can be controlled from either the front panel (PAR. 3.4.1) or externally using a
trimpot or voltage source (PAR. 3.4.2).
3.4.1 FRONT PANEL VOLTAGE CONTROL
Output voltage can be manually adjusted with the voltage adjustment control, Vadj (see Figure 5
for location) when DIP switches SW1 and SW2 (see Figure 4 for location) are configured as

Then monitor the (+) and (–) test points on the front panel with a precision voltmeter and turn the
voltage control to the desired operating value. Refer to Table 2 for the recommended Adjustment
Range of all the HSF 600W Models.
3.4.2 REMOTE VOLTAGE CONTROL
For remote voltage control, set positions 1, 2 and 7 as shown in Figure 6B. This removes control
from the front panel Vadj control and allows the output voltage to be adjusted by either an external
trimmer pot (resistance) or by an external variable voltage source connected across the rack
adapter I/O connector pin 12 (RV, Remote Voltage) and pin 10 (–COM, Common) as shown in
Figure 7. At the rack adapter I/O connector use a shielded wire 6.6 feet (2M) maximum in length,
for connection of REF (pin 2), RV (pin 12), a nd –COM (pin 10) to the trim mer control or external
voltage source.
NOTE: If remote voltage control is not implemented, the factory default for positions 1, 2 and 7 of
DIP switches SW1 and SW2 must be restored (Figure 6A).
FIGURE 6. DIP SWITCH SETTINGS FOR CONTROL OF OUTPUT VOLTAGE
It is possible that overvoltage protection may be triggered if the output voltage is decreased to a low
level very quickly when the power supply is at a low load condition.
RESIST ANCE: Connect the external trimmer as shown in Figure 7A. Suggested value for the trimmer control is 5K ohms. Referring to Figure 7 (A), Resistor R is used to obtain minimum output
voltage required to ensure proper operation of the alarm relay and LED indicator; see Table 4 for
values. NOTE: Output voltage may not adjust to 0V due to residual trimmer resistance.
VOLTAGE. By adjusting an external 0 to 6V voltage source (0 to 5.5V for the 48V model), the HSF
power supply output voltage can be adjusted as specified in Table 2. To ensure proper operation of
the alar m rel ay an d LED indi cator do not adjust external voltage below minimum listed in Table 4.
Connect the voltage source across the RV and –COM pins as shown in Figure 7B.

3.5 REMOTE ON-OFF
When power is ON at the source, the output may be turned ON or OFF using the ±R C signals if
the remote ON-OFF feature is enabled. Note that when remote ON-OFF is enabled, the RESET
OUTPUT switch does not function. Remote ON-OFF is enabled by setting DIP switch positions 3
and 4 as shown in Figure 8B. The +RC and –RC signals (at the rack ad apter I/O connector, pins
15 and 8, respectively) then turn the unit on or off. These pins accept a logic level (2.4V to 24V
“high” and 0.0 to 0.4V “low”), or a contact closure. When the ±RC pins are open, using either a
mechanical switch or a high level logic signal, the HSF 600W output is cut OFF. When the ±RC
pins are shorted, the output returns to within specifications. At low level logic, the maximum
source current is 1.6mA and at high level the sink current is 1.0mA. Positions 3 and 4 of bo th DIP
switches must be restored to the factory default setting (Figure 8A) if remote ON-OFF is not used.
The ±RC pins are isolated from DC output pins and a-c input terminals.
FIGURE 8. DIP SWITCH SETTINGS FOR USING RESET BUTTON OR REMOTE ON-OFF
3.6 PROTECTION CIRCUITS
The following protection features are implemented in the HSF 600W Series: overvoltage and
overtemperature (PAR. 3.6.1), overcurrent (PAR. 3.6.2), fan failure (PAR. 3.6.3), and undervoltage (PAR. 3.6.4). The HSF 600W Series provides a configurable visual alarm (see PAR. 3.7.1) as
well as an option to use either relay contacts or logic levels for alarm signals (see PAR. 3.7.2)
3.6.1 OVERVOLTAGE AND OVERTEMPERATURE PROTECTION
When the output voltage of the HSF 600W Power Supply increase s beyond the specified values
(see Table 2), the output is cut OFF and the fan turns OFF. To restart (reset) the unit, press and
release the OUTPUT RESET switch on the front panel or, if the remote on/off feature is in use
(see PAR. 3.5), open connection between the RC p ins and then reco nnect the pin s. The un it may
also be restarted by turning the POWER ON/OFF switch to OFF, waiting 40 second s, then setting
the POWER switch to ON.
10 HSF 600W 042315
When the internal temperature of the HSF (M) 600W Power Supp ly increases beyond allowable
limit, the output is cut OFF and the fans turn OFF. The restart cycle (Power ON) should not begin
until the temperature returns to within specifications. To restart (reset) the unit, set the POWER
ON/OFF switch to OFF, wait until unit cools, then set the POWER switch to ON. The power supply
cannot be reset using the remote ON-OFF feature unless the power supply remains shut down for
at least 40 seconds.
3.6.2 OVERCURRENT SETTING AND PROTECTION
The output characteristic of the power supply is a square type, and the unit is set to produce an
alarm (see PAR. 3.7.2) and shut down if output current exceeds specifications (see Table 2) for
more than 30 se con ds . After the cause of overcurrent is removed, the power supply output is automatically restored.and shut down if output current exceeds specifications (see Table 2) for more
than 30 seconds. Once unit shuts down, to recover either: a) press and release the front panel
OUTPUT RESET switch, or b) open and close connection across ±RC terminals, or c) remove a-c
input power (set POWER switch to OFF), wait 40 seconds, then restore a-c input power.
3.6.3 FAN FAILURE
A cutoff of the fan supply voltage or a decrease in fan speed causes the output to sh ut down and the
fans to turn OFF. Fan failure and all the other protection circuit operations produce an alarm (see
PAR. 3.7.2). To restart (reset) the unit, press and release the OUTPUT RESET switch on the front
panel or, if the remote on/off feature is in use (see PAR. 3.5), open the connection between the
±RC pins and then reconnect the pins. The unit may also be restarted by turning the POWER ON/
OFF switch to OFF, waiting 40 seconds, then setting the POWER switch to ON. If fan rotation is
out of specification the power supply will not recover.
3.6.4 UNDERVOLTAGE
If power supply output voltage either falls below 80% of the programmed (set) value, or if output
voltage is programmed below the minimum values li ste d in Table 4, an alarm occurs if the internal
relay alarm (factory default, see PAR. 3.7.2.1) is enabled. To restart (reset) the unit, press and
release the OUTPUT RESET switch on the front panel or, if the remote on/off feature is in use
(see PAR. 3.5), open the connection between the RC pins and then reconnect the pins. The unit
may also be restarted by turning the POWER ON/OFF switch to OFF, waiting 40 seconds, then
setting the POWER switch to ON. To enable the alarm function when operating below the minimum values listed in Table 4, refer to PAR. 3.7.2.2 to configure the optically-coupled alarm.
3.7 ALARM SETTINGS
3.7.1 VISUAL ALARM.
When the unit is connected in a parallel configuration, the front panel VDC ON/ALARM indicator
can be configured to light red if the respective power supply output voltage is lost or if the POWER
switch is set to OFF. This is enabled when DIP switch 1, position 8 set to ON. This can be useful
to indicate the loss of output voltage from one parallel-connected power supply that may not be
readily apparent. The visual alarm is normally disabled: DIP switch SW1, position 8 set to OFF
(factory default).

Either of two options are available for signalling alarms: isolated relay contacts (factory default,
PAR. 3.7.2.1) or logic level alarm signals ±PF (PAR. 3.7.2.2). The ±PF logic level alarm option
must be used if the power supply is intended to operate below the minimum voltages listed in
Table 4.
3.7.2.1 INTERNAL ISOLATED RELAY ALARM
The first option, the factory default setting, uses an isolated internal relay offering normally closed
(NC) and normally open (NO) contacts referenced to an isolated common (AL COM). Th ese contacts may be used to configure “close on failure” or “open on failure” alarm circuits. (Refer to the
Series RA 19-4C Manual for alarm configurations for multiple HSF power supplies.) Setting positions 5 and 6 of the DIP switches as shown in Figure 9A selects this option. The NC (pin 6 of the
rack adapter I/O connector) and NO (pin 7) signals are referenced to Alarm common (pin 14).
3.7.2.2 OPTICALLY-COUPLED LOGICAL ALARM
The second option uses optically-coupled logic level alarm sig nals, +PF (pin 5 of the rack adapter
I/O connector) and -PF (pin 13), provided directly from the Kepco RKW power supply that is the
heart of the HSF. This option is selected by setting positions 5 and 6 of the DIP switches as shown
in Figure 9B. Use this option if the power supply will operate below the minimum voltages specified in Table 4.
FIGURE 9. DIP SWITCH SETTINGS FOR OPTICALLY COUPLED LOGICAL ALARM
The logic alarm circuit is a diode transistor optical coupler (see Figure 10). The transistor is n ormally conducting. When the alarm is activated upon detection of power loss, overvoltage, fan
fault, overtemperature or overcurrent condition, the transistor cuts off and the collector emitter circuit is open. Figure 11 is a timing diagram of the power fail signal.
The default state of the alarm is logic low. The sink current for the optocoupler is 50mA maximum,
the maximum collector to emitter saturation voltage is 0.40 Volts, and the collector to emitter voltage is 40 volts maximum. The PF signals are isolated from the AC input and DC output.

3.8 LOCAL/REMOTE SENSING
HSF 600W Power Supplies allow remote error sensing which can compensate up to 0.4 Volts per
load wire. Local/Remote error sensing is configured b y means of separate DIP switch es mounted
on the RA 19-4C Rack Adapter (see RA 19-4C Rack Adapter Operator Manual). Either local or
remote sensing MUST be used, otherwise the units will not operate.
3.9 RETAINING LATCHES
HSF 600W series power supplies are provided with (2) retention latches located at each side of
the bottom edge of the front panel (see Figure 5). These latches work in conjunction with the RA
19-4C rack adapters to prevent unauthorized or inadverte nt module extraction from an operating
power system. The latch is engaged by loosening the cap-head screw approximately 1/2 turn
CCW (use 5/32" hex key) and sliding the latch down to the bottom of the slot, then retightening the
cap-head screw CW until snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! To release, follow the same procedure,
except lift the latch to the top of the slot. Be sure to move the latch completely up or down to
ensure full engagement and disengagement of the latching mechanism. When the HSF power
supply is not installed in its plug-in rack adapter, it is recommended that the latch be secured in
the open (up) position to prevent damage.
NOTE: Retaining latches must not be used to secure the HSF power supply in the rack
adapter for shipping purposes.

4 LOAD CONNECTION
Connect the load to (+) and (–) terminals at the rear panel of the Rack Adapter (see RA 19-4C
Instruction Manual for details).
5 CONNECTING MULTIPLE POWER SUPPLIES
All connections to multiple HSF power supplies must be made via the I/O mating connectors at
rear of the Rack Adapter or by the Rack Adapter DIP switches. These connections, including the
configuration of the two internal HSF DIP switches, are described in the Rack Adapter Instruction
manual, and include:
• Using one power supply to control the output of multiple supplies.
• Using parallel master/slave configurations (for increased current or redundancy) where
the user either predetermines the master or allows the load to determine which is the
master. These configurations also cover the use of the Current Balancing feature of the
HSF power supply.
• Using series configurations (for increased voltage).
• Using open-on-fail or close-on-fail alarm schemes with multiple power supplies.
5.1 ADJUSTING THE VOLTAGE
NOTE: Refer to the RA 19-4C Rack Adapter manual for alternatives to the standard master/
slave parallel configuration described below.
To adjust the paralleled units, turn off all the units except one (designated as the master) and
adjust to desired voltage using the front page trimmer and monitoring the front panel voltmeter.
• Each slave must be adjusted to a slightly lower voltage than the pr evious unit. The dif ference between the master and the lowest voltage slave must not exceed 2% of E
• The voltage separation between master and subsequent slave(s) (V
SEP
) = 2% E
where N = number of units in parallel.

When all units are turned on, the unit adjusted to the highest voltage will be the ma ster. If a unit
fails, the VDC ON indicator of that unit is either off or red.
5.2 PARALLEL CONNECTIONS, STANDARD AND C MODELS
When using parallel-connected standard (no suffix) and C Models, a minimum load is required to
avoid the slave becoming “idle.” When the slave is idle, the output is off, no lights are lit, and the
alarm is set.
