High Voltage Power Supply for Flow Cytometry Research

This case study details the implementation of high voltage power supplies (HVPS) in flow cytometry systems aimed at advancing COVID-19 vaccine research. The document outlines the specific requirements for a power supply that could deliver +250 V with up to 4 W output power, essential for driving lasers in precision life science systems. It describes the challenges faced, including the need for a sophisticated AC-DC source with multiple DC outputs to power various components such as thermoelectric modules and logic controllers. The UltraVolt A series was selected for its reliability, based on the customer's previous positive experiences. The case study highlights the benefits of choosing UltraVolt and Artesyn products, including accelerated development timelines and strong engineering support, which facilitated rapid prototyping and deployment of beta systems. The successful integration of these power supplies is presented as a strategic advantage in the ongoing development of next-generation COVID-19 vaccine technologies.
