Main Features

  • SHV Male to Dual 4mm Banana Plug Cable
  • Rated Voltage: 5000V
  • Cable Length: 0.3m (11.8in)
  • Banana Plugs: Red / Black, 4mm
  • Fits: AHVAPN1KV20MABN, AHVAPN1800V20MABN, AHVAPN2000V20MABN

Description

The AHVAPN…BN high voltage amplifiers have a banana-jack output. Many piezo stages, test fixtures and HV cables use SHV connectors. The AHVAPNBN2SHV connects the two: the red and black banana plugs go into the amplifier output, and the SHV male connector goes to your SHV cable or load.

The cable is rated 5000V. This is well above the ±2000V maximum output of the AHVAPN2000V20MABN. The short 0.3m length keeps the added cable capacitance low.

Only for these three models. All other ATI high voltage amplifiers already have an SHV output and do not need this cable.

How to Connect

  1. Turn off the amplifier and wait for the output to discharge.
  2. Plug the red banana plug into the red output jack and the black plug into the black jack of the amplifier.
  3. Connect the SHV male connector to your SHV cable, piezo or test fixture.
  4. Check all connections, then turn on the amplifier.
Safety: The amplifier output can reach ±2000V. Never connect or disconnect the cable while the amplifier is on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which amplifiers need this cable?

Only the banana-output models: AHVAPN1KV20MABN, AHVAPN1800V20MABN and AHVAPN2000V20MABN. Other ATI high voltage amplifiers have an SHV output.

Why use SHV connectors for high voltage?

SHV connectors are made for high voltage. They cannot mate with standard BNC connectors, so a high voltage line cannot be plugged into low voltage equipment by mistake.

Is 5000V enough for my amplifier?

Yes. The highest output in the AHVAPN series is ±2000V (AHVAPN2000V20MABN). The cable is rated 5000V.

How long is the cable?

0.3m (11.8in). If you need a longer run, connect a standard SHV cable to the SHV end.

Do I also need a power supply?

The amplifiers run from 24V DC. If you do not have a 24V supply, see the AHVAPS24V 24V power supply.
