HELIUS^TM RF GENERATORS

RF Generator General Specifications

• Solid state models are 50/60 Hz AC Mains compatible.
• All models include an Accu-Match remote control interface.
• All models include AC line cords without connectors on the user interface end. Specify custom lengths, if required, at time of order placement.
• Unless specified in the Manitou part # column, a specific OEM part number will be assigned once the product’s parameters are defined.
• All Helius models are equipped with a common exciter I/O connector. All other models may include an exciter I/O as an option. Please specify at time of order placement.
• All models are CE marked. Contact Manitou for information regarding compliance to other global electrical and safety standards and the product’s operation with your process application.

Helius Series General Specifications
All models are housed in a 19" wide rack mount chassis, except for the Helius-OEM 13.56 MHz model, which is designed in a compact form factor. Unless otherwise specified, the RF output impedance is 50 ohms resistive and will require the use of an additional application specific impedance matching device to ensure proper and safe operation powering typical plasma processes. This family of products typically operates within a narrow frequency band, which is defined as +/- 2% of the ordered center frequency. The center frequency is fixed and is NOT field-adjustable. Frequency agile operation is not available on operating frequencies at or above the 27 MHz band.

Helius VHF Series RF Generators

The Helius VHF series of RF generators typically covers both ISM and other industry specific frequencies. These products may be ordered with user specified output frequencies. Contact Manitou for additional information.

Series Helius VT RF Generators 

The Helius VT series are typically used for high power applications. Their hybrid design (solid state driver/ vacuum tube final amplifier) is designed to drive CO² laser cutting and welding systems and very high power plasma processes including sputtering and etching.

Helius VT series General Specifications
All models are constructed in a stand-alone electronics rack enclosure. These high power RF generators are also available with AC Mains input voltages other than 208 VAC upon special order. Specify AC Mains frequency at the time of order placement.
