1.1 SCOPE OF MANUAL
This Operator's Manual covers the installation and operation of the Kepco HSF 600W Series,
Models M and MZ, of Metered Switching Power Supplies. 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 M and MZ models are hot swappable, high frequency switching,
plug-in power supplies that are completely interchangeable with the non-metered HSF Series
(except where noted, this manual applies to both M and MZ Models). 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), 50-60 Hz (input frequency
range 47-440Hz). A built-in current balancing circuit and OR-ing diodes allow configuration for
hot-swap and parallel-redundant N+1 operation. RoHS-compliant models are indicated by HSF*
(e.g., HSF*28-23M)
The HSF M Models use the HSF output to power the VDC ON indicator, internal alarm relay, and
the meter. A minimum HSF output voltage is needed to maintain functionality for these components.
The HSF MZ Models use an auxiliary internal power supply to power the in ternal relay and the
meter, allowing the output voltage to be adjusted down to zero without affecting meter or alarm
performance. The default configuration of MZ models use s an inter nal referen ce vo ltage to power
the VDC ON indicator. An option is provided which allows the VDC ON indicator to be powered by
the HSF output, requiring a minimum voltage to maintain functionality of the indicator.
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).

3.1 DIP SWITCH CONFIGURATION
The HSF 600W Series M and MZ models incorporate two DIP switches, SW1 and SW2 (see Figure 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 of SW1 and SW2 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 PA R 3.4).
• Positions 3 and 4 of SW1 and SW2 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).

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.

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 rack 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.
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
shown in Figure 6A (factory default) To adjust voltage, first place the unit under an operating load.
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 Output
Adjustment Range of all HSF 600W M and MZ Models.
3.4.2 REMOTE VOLTAGE CONTROL
For remote voltage control, set positions 1, 2 and 7 for SW1 and SW2 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), and –COM (pin 10) to the trimmer control or external voltage source.
NOTE:If remote voltage control is not implemented, the factory d efault 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.

To use the internal power supply reference voltage to power the VDC ON/ALARM indicator, set
Position 7 of SW1 to ON and Position 8 of SW2 to OFF (default) (see Figure 8A). Load effect is
±1% maximum. To use the HSF output voltage to power the VDC ON/ALARM indicator, set Position 7 of SW1 to OFF and Position 8 of SW2 to ON (see Figure 8B). Load effect is ±0.6% maximum, however the minimums specified in Table 5 must be observed for the indicator to function.
Table 5 lists the minimum HSF output voltage required to maintain VDC ON indicator function for
this case. Maximum output voltage of unit might cause overvoltage trip if SW2, position 8 is
enabled. If this occurs, turn Vadj trim pot counterclockwise to reduce output voltage, then reset the
unit.

3.5 REMOTE ON-OFF
When power is ON at the source, the output may be turned ON or OFF using the ±RC 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 9B. 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 9A) if remote ON-OFF is not used.
The ±RC pins are isolated from DC output pins and a-c input terminals.
HSF (M) 600W 042315 11
FIGURE 9. DIP SWITCH SETTINGS FOR USING RESET BUTTON OR REMOTE ON-OFF
3.6 RESET (RESTART)
There are three ways to reset the unit:
• If remote on/off feature (see PAR. 3.5) IS NOT in use, press and release the OUTPUT
RESET switch on the front panel.
• 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.
3.7 PROTECTION CIRCUITS
The following protection features are implemented in the HSF 600W Series M and MZ Models:
overvoltage and overtemperature (PAR. 3.7.1), overcurrent (PAR. 3.7.2), fan failure (PAR. 3.7.3),
and undervoltage (PAR. 3.7.4). The HSF provides a configurable visual alarm (see PAR. 3.8.1) as
well as an option to use either relay contacts or logic levels for alarm signals (see PAR. 3.8.2)
3.7.1 OVERVOLTAGE AND OVERTEMPERATURE PROTECTION
If the output voltage of the HSF increases beyond the sp ecified 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 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 the internal temperature of the HSF increases beyond allowable lim its, 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.
3.7.2 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. 3.8.2) and shut down if output current exceeds specifications (see Table 2) for
more than 30 seconds. After shut down, reset the unit per PAR. 3.6.
3.7.3 FAN FAILURE
A cutoff of the fan supply voltage or a decrease in fan speed causes the ou tput to sh ut down and the
fans to turn OFF. Fan failure and all the other protection circuit operations produce an alarm (see
PAR. 3.8.2). After shut down, reset the unit per PAR. 3.6. If fan rotation is out of specification the
power supply will not recover.
3.7.4 UNDERVOLTAGE
M MODELS ONLY: If power supply output voltage either falls below 80% of the programmed (set)
value, or if output voltage is programmed below the minimum values listed in Table 4, an alarm
occurs if the internal relay alarm (factory default, see PAR. 3.8.2.1) 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. 3.8.2.2 to configure the optically-coupled alarm.
12 HSF (M) 600W 042315
MZ MODELS ONLY: If power supply output voltage falls below 80% of the programmed (set)
value, an alarm occurs. 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.
3.8 ALARM SETTINGS
3.8.1 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).
NOTE: On MZ models, the meter is powered by an independent internal power supply and will
most likely remain lit after a failure. Visual inspection of the front panel VDC ON/
ALARM ind ica tor and/or monitoring of the alarm signals is required to detect a failure.
If the ALARM indicator is enabled to light red, the VDC ON/ALARM indica tor must be
powered from the HSF output (see PAR. 3.4.3).
3.8.2 ALARM SIGNALS.
Either of two options are available for signalling alarms: isolated re lay contacts (factory default,
PAR. 3.8.2.1) or logic level alarm sign als ±PF (PAR. 3.8.2.2). The ±PF logic level alarm option
must be used if the power supply is intended to ope rate below the minimum voltages listed in
Table 4.
3.8.2.1 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). These co ntacts 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 10A 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).
3.8.2.2 OPTICALLY-COUPLED LOGICAL ALARM
The second option uses optically-coupled logic level alarm signals, +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 10B. Use this option if the M Model power supply will ope rate below the minimum voltages specified in Table 4.

The logic alarm circuit is a diode transistor optical coupler (see Figure 11). The transistor is normally 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 12 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.

3.9 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.
3.10 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 ma ster 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 previous unit. The difference between the master and the lowest voltage slave must not exceed 2% of E
NOM
.
• The voltage separation between master and subsequent slave(s) (V
where N = number of units in parallel.

0.16V. Turn off the master, then turn on another unit (slave 1 ) and adjust for 160 mV less than the
master. Turn off slave 1 and turn on slave 2 and adjust for 160mV less than slave 1.
When all units are turned on, the unit adjusted to the highest voltage will be the master. The
meters of all units read the voltage on the bus. If a unit fails, the VDC ON indicator of that unit is
either off or red, however the meter of a failed MZ Model may continue to read the voltage on the
bus since it is powered by a separate internal power supply.
5.2 PARALLEL CONNECTIONS, M MODELS
When using parallel-connected M 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. The minimum load (Amperes) = N x (I/10) where N = the number of units in parallel, I = Nominal current
rating of individual power supply (Amperes). For applications requiring either no load or lower
than minimum load conditions, the MZ Models are recommended.
5.3 PARALLEL CONNECTIONS, MZ MODELS
If parallel-connected MZ models are controlled individually, either a minimum load or voltage set
restrictions are required to avoid slave “idle” or slave “oscillating output” conditions; the idle and
oscillating output conditions show slightly different indications depending on the position of SW1
position 7 as defined below. NOTE: If the minimum load is maintained, voltage set restric-
tions are not required.
is 0.48/3 =
If position 7 of SW1 is set to off (default, see PAR. 3.1), the VDC ON indicator is powered from the
output; therefore when a slave is idle, the output is o ff, VDC ON is off, and the alarm is set. The
oscillating output condition means that the unit alternates between briefly idle and output on (the
VDC ON indicator will appear dim as it goes on and off, and the toggling relay will be audible).
If position 7 of SW1 is set to on (see PAR. 3.1) so that the VDC ON indicator is powered from the
internal power supply, when a slave is idle, the output is off, VDC ON lights red, and the alarm is
set. The oscillating output condition means that the unit alternates between briefly idle and output
on (the VDC ON indicator will toggle between briefly amber and green, and the toggling relay will
be audible).
5.3.1 MINIMUM LOAD
The minimum load (Amperes) = N x (I/10) where N = the number of units in parallel, I = Nominal
current rating of individual power supply (Amperes). For applications requiring no load o r lower
than minimum load conditions, see voltage set restrictions of PAR. 5.3.2. Load effect specifications will not be met when units are operated in redundant mode with load less than 10% per unit.
For loads less than 10%, voltage stabilization may be affected if units are turned off and on via the
front panel, causing voltage on the paralleled bus to rise as high as 8% for 5 seconds maximum.
This can be avoided by using the remote on-off feature to turn the units off and on.
5.3.2 VOLTAGE SET RESTRICTIONS
To avoid slave “idle” all parallel-connected units’ output voltage must be set within 1% or 200mV
of each other (whichever is lower) and be at least 80% of their nominal (rated) output voltage
(90% for 48V model).
