A wide range of flexible pulse delivery systems can be designed and constructed to suit specific customer requirements. Samtech have successfully delivered a number of these bespoke systems for a range of industrial and research based applications, including: -

   • Anti-microbial control, Biocidal treatment and Pathogenic inactivation through systems that enable:-
      - Pulsed Electric Field Treatment
      - Ozone Generation
      - Pulsed Ultra-Violet Light Sources
      - Cold Plasma Generation
   • High power ultrasound generation for acoustic source research
   • Plasma and corona discharge generation
   • Antenna drivers

The Pulse Delivery Systems have a modular design, comprising: -

   • Primary power supply (capacitor charging unit, 1kJ/s to 8kJ/s)
   • Trigger generator (Samtech type TG-01)
   • High performance switch (Samtech type CSS-01)
   • Pulse forming section (or sections)

It is the pulse forming section that is designed specifically for customer requirements. This can take the form of a discrete capacitor store to provide a “double exponential” pulse shape, or can be based on co-axial transmission lines enabling different pulse profiles to be generated and electrically matched into a particular load. For example the load may be a Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) test cell that possesses “electrical impedance”. In many cases the pulse forming section can be designed to exactly “match” this impedance, ensuring maximum power transfer to the test cell without any pulse reflection.

Most of the pulse delivery systems are housed within standard 19” rack units (600mm wide by 800mm deep), with the height depending upon the design, but usually in the range 1000mm to 2000mm. Optically de-coupled remote control options for the triggering system are also available.
