Special Effects Applications
Single Electrode And Proximity Powered
For the Neon Artist Working With Specialized Gas Displays
Eliminates Those Unsightly Ground Return Wires
Single electrode drivers need only one electrode to power a display. This is a great advantage when attempting to avoid unsightly power return wires used on artistic and special designed systems. Units operate on the electrical capacitance of the discharge tube and require positive grounding for optimum performance. Drivers will operate all gas discharge displays.

NEONIZER

For Small Displays, Light Sabers, etc.

Neon Transformers, Neon Power Supplies

Input: 12VDC 500ma
Output: ~3kv open circuit

Small thumb-sized unit operates from included 12VAC/0.5 amp wall adapter, or directly from a 12V battery source for wireless operation. Device will light up a 24" piece of 12 mm thick neon tube using only one electrode. Can also be used with gas display figurines without electrodes by capacitance feed. Powers 2-4' displays. Connects to closest electrode. Open frame construction of 1 x 1 x 3" is easily enclosed for small specialized neon art pieces.

PVM400
High-powered front panel adjustable output plasma driver operates from 115 or 220 vac and is intended for large plasma-globes, columns and large gas filled display vessels up to 30 inches. Rectangular shaped unit is 2 x 3 x 10" deep and is built on an aluminum chassis with plastic cover. A 2 x 3" panel contains the fuse power adjust control, indicator lamp and power cord exit. Output end is open with a 12" 30 Kv high voltage and 4 ' grounding lead. Factory set open circuit voltage shutdown protects the transformer from to light and no load operation. Internal circuitry protects against short circuits. Open circuit voltage is 20 Kv with a short circuit current of 25 ma load lines at 125 watts of output. The power adjust control varies the frequency from 15 to 35 kHz and controls output current. Full load output line current is 1.5 amps.

This unit can also be used with a high voltage multiplier stack for obtaining DC voltages over 100 Kv. This setup allows current charging of high energy capacitors without the need for "lossy" current limiting resistors.
