The NFCN 9731-100 provides two separate channels utilizing a shared control unit. Thus, each coil of the Helmholtz coil is powered by a separate amplifier. The current flowing through the coils can be monitored using the built-in RMS ammeters.
The compensation capacitor reduces the overall impedance of the series circuit consisting of the Helmholtz coil HHS 5230 and the compensation network NFCN 9731-100 at the applied operating frequency and allows currents up to 8 Arms at a generator voltage of less than 60 Vrms.
An overvoltage protection circuit connects a damping resistor in parallel to the capacitor when the maximum operating voltage is exceeded (at currents higher than 8 Arms).
