KEPCO SINGLE OUTPUT, 1U, 50 WATT
HOT SWAP PLUG-IN POWER SUPPLIES
I — INTRODUCTION
The Kepco HSF-1UR, 50 Watt Series hot swappable, high
frequency switching, plug-in power supplies with built-in
power factor correction (PFC) employ forward conversion
and are designed to operate in a fault tolerant power system with either a-c or d-c input. A thermistor soft-start circuit limits start-up surge. Built-in OR-ing diodes (all models)
and a forced current share circuit (all models except 3.3V)
allow configuration of all models for hot-swap and parallelredundant N+1 operation. Outputs of 3.3, 5, 12, 15, 24, 28
or 48V are available (see Table 1).
These power supplies are designed to be used with
Kepco’s Series RA 19-1U rack adapters. The RA 19-1U
rack adapter accepts up to four 50 Watt, 100 Watt or 150
Watt units (see Figure 2). All input/output connections are
through a 24-pin connector that plugs in to the rack
adapter. All external connections are made through the
rack adapter. I/O signals and implementation of HSF
options are described in detail in the RA 19-1U Rack
Adapter Manual. Surface mount technology permits efficient component layout for minimum mounting space.
EMI filtering is designed to meet FCC Class B rating and
VDE 0871 Class B rating. Table 1 contains specifications
that vary for each model of the HSF-1UR 50 Watt Series.
Common specification are listed on page 5.
HSF-1UR
50W SERIES
OPTIONS. There are four options available: T, C, X and
Y. Features for all models are the same, except as follows:
The heart of the standard 50W HSF-1UR (no options) models is a Kepco RKW power supply (28V model not available).
T option (-1URT) models use a Kepco RTW power supply
instead of the RKW. T option models weigh less, and have
improved efficiency (input current) specifications. All voltages are available.
C option (-1URC) models include a current sensing resistor, allowing external current monitoring within ±10% (contact Kepco if greater accuracy required). In addition, a 28V
model is available with Option C. All voltages are available.
X option (-1URX) remote control models are identical to T
option, but also include the ability to turn the unit on and off
from a remote location. All voltages are available.
Y option models (-1URY) are identical to T option, but also
include both current monitoring and remote on-off capabilities. All voltages are available.
When the input is cut off, the output is maintained for 15
milliseconds minimum (25 for T, C, X and Y models). If the
power supply shuts down due to an output overvoltage
condition, it is then necessary to wait 60 seconds minimum
(30 for T, C, X and Y models) before turning the unit on
again.
II — FEATURES
FRONT PANEL ACCESS. The front panel provides a
power ON/OFF switch controlling input power and a “VDC
ON” light which indicates when the unit is operating. NOTE:
The ON/OFF switch must be set to OFF before removing unit from rack adapter. The front panel “MASTER
ON” LED lights when 1) the unit operates independently, or
2) the unit is used in parallel redundant configurations while
a) the output is less than 10% of nominal or b) the output is
within 10% to 100% of nominal and the unit is functioning

as a master. In parallel redundant configurations, the module with the highest voltage functions as the master. The
other units are slaves, and track the output voltage of the
master. Refer to Current Share Bus (CSB) on page 4 for
details. The front panel Vadj trimmer provides adjustment of
the output voltage within the limits specified in Table 1; test
points connected to the +S and –S lines are available at the
front panel for measuring the output.

BUILT-IN OR-ING DIODES. OR-ing diodes allow
configuration of all models for hot-swap and parallelredundant N+1 operation where current distribution is not
equal and the idle unit takes over in the event of failure.
FORCED CURRENT SHARE CIRCUIT. (Not applicable to 3.3V models.) When units are configured for N+1
parallel redundant operation, it is desirable for current to
be divided equally among the paralleled supplies. When
the CSB (forced Current Share Bus) lines of paralleled
HSF-1UR units are connected together, the load current is
forced to divide equally between all paralleled units; units
operate at less than maximum, reducing stress and
increasing reliability of the system. If one unit fails, the
remaining units will continue to supply the load, and the
load current will be divided equally among the remaining
operating units. The failed unit is automatically isolated
from the circuit by a built-in isolation diode. Refer to Cur-
rent Share Bus (CSB) on page 4 for details.

REMOTE ON-OFF. Remote on-off (X and Y models
only) is via ±RC assigned to pins of the RA 19-1U I/O connector: off = no voltage, short circuit, or 0 to 0.8V, on = 4.5
to 12.5V (or 12.5 to 24.5V via 1.5K Ohms). To reverse onoff polarity contact Kepco. There is no isolation between
±RC, d-c output and alarm circuit. Refer to the RA 19-1U
Manual for details. NOTE: POWER switch must be ON for
remote control to be active.
CURRENT MONITOR. Current monitor (C and Y models only) is via ±IMON assigned to pins of the RA 19-(X)B
I/O connector. Monitored Output Current (Amps) = Voltage
drop across R
sum of R
S
(mVolts) / REQ (mOhms) where REQ is the
EQ
(see Table 1) + trace resistance to point where
current monitor is connected, approximately 4mOhms. The
voltage drop across R
is measured across ± IMON pins
EQ
(requires millivoltmeter, range 0 to 250mV). Accuracy is
±10%; contact Kepco if greater accuracy is required. There
is no isolation between ±IMON, alarm circuit and d-c output. Refer to the applicable RA 19-1U Manual for details.

ALARM CIRCUIT. The HSF-1UR includes an isolated
internal relay offering normally closed and normally open
contacts referenced to an isolated common (see above for
isolation restrictions for remote on-off or current monitor
options. These contacts may be used to configure “close
on failure” or “open on failure” alarm circuits (“close on failure” not available for X and Y models). (Refer to the
RA 19-1U Manual for alarm configurations for multiple
HSF-1UR power supplies.)
KEYING. Keying of the HSF-1UR is established at the
factory (see Figure 3). The output voltage determines
which key pins are installed. When the proper holes in the
rack adapter are blocked by keying screws installed by the
FIGURE 3. REAR CONNECTOR AND KEYING
user, only a power supply of the correct voltage can be
inserted in the rack adapter slot. (Refer to the RA 19-1U
Manual for rack adapter keying instructions.)
