The PVX-4000-2kV is a high voltage pulse generator designed for high impedance capacitive loads and offers the choice between an internal or external power supply option. This unit offers a 0 V to ±2000 V settable output voltage and 2% to 98% duty cycles. With the internal source PVX-4000-2kV, 40 Hz to 30,000 Hz repetition rates are supported. The PVX-4000-2kV is compatible with automated applications through RS-232 and USB computer interfaces, which allow for complete control of the instrument. In addition, the PVX-4000-2kV can be externally triggered, has a Sync output for interconnection to other equipment and can be monitored through the Voltage Monitor BNC connection using an oscilloscope.

*Please contact BNC if you are interested in purchasing the PVX-4000-2kV unit with an internal power supply.
