This is a Technical Specification document for HSR Main Arc Dipole and Quadrupole Power Supplies for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The specification defines requirements for two power supply units: Model A (HSR Main Arc Dipole) and Model B (HSR Main Arc Quad), each with 7000 A maximum output current but different voltage ratings (±400 V and ±100 V respectively). Both units operate as ramped, two-quadrant DC sources with ramp rates of 5–80 A/s, 4–4.5 H and 0.5–0.7 H load inductance respectively, and must achieve short-term current stability of 10 ppm and long-term stability of 30 ppm over a 30-minute to 10-hour period.

The power supplies must meet extensive electrical, safety, and operational requirements including 2200 Vrms ground isolation, FCC Class A conducted line noise limits, and IEEE 519 harmonic compliance. Input power requirements include three AC sources: 480 VAC three-phase for main power and two 120V single-phase UPS-backed supplies for critical and redundant control circuits. The contractor must provide a Programmable Logic Controller (Siemens S7-1515-2PN or equivalent), HMI display, oscilloscope monitoring, two DCCTs (zero-flux current transducers) with temperature-stabilized electronics, and complete current and voltage regulation loops. The specification mandates comprehensive testing including high-potential testing at 2200 Vrms, thermal testing with two 10-hour heat runs at full load, ramp performance verification, and quench protection interface testing. The power supplies must conform to NEMA 2 cabinet standards, include water cooling compatible with BNL's Low Conductivity Water system at 200 PSIG maximum, incorporate multiple interlocks and safety features (lockout/tagout compliance, door interlocks, over-temperature protection), and achieve greater than 85% efficiency and >0.9 power factor at full load. The Contractor is responsible for all packaging, shipping, and delivery arrangements, including custom fabrication of lifting devices in compliance with ASME B30.20-2018.

1 SCOPE

This specification defines the technical requirements for the Hadron Storage Ring (HSR) Main

Arc Dipole and Quadrupole Power Supplies to be used at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at

Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) managed by Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA).

1.1 Background

The EIC Project will design, build, and install the accelerator hardware for a new electron storage ring, an electron injector, and modifications to the hadron ring required to produce an electron-ion collider and infrastructure. It will include one interaction region, with an allowance for a second, and one detector. The facility is designed to meet requirements to ensure high reliability and availability for the user program.

The HSR is formed by modifying the existing hadron ring, and its main arc dipole and quadrupole magnets are superconducting elements connected in series strings around the ring. The two power supplies covered by this specification will be used to supply and precisely regulate ramped current into superconducting magnet loads. One supply, Model A, for the main arc dipole circuit and one supply, Model B, for the main arc quadrupole circuit.

• Power Supply Ground Fault Trip: ±500 mA for more than 2 seconds. The trip shall latch and shall require a manual or remote reset.

• QPA Ground Fault Warning: +/-86mA for more than 1 second. The warning shall latch and shall automatically unlatch after 20 seconds of continuous readings below the warning threshold.

Ground fault warning and trip statuses shall be reported to BSA Controls as defined in the

Protection and Interlocks subsection of this specification.

Strain reliefs shall be of Roxtec seal type or BSA technical representative approved equivalent.

3.1.3.12 Efficiency

Power losses from input to output shall not exceed >85% of the rated output power of the supply at full load. The Contractor shall state the expected efficiency at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of rated output power in the proposal.

3.1.3.13 Output Current Settling After Line Disturbance

During power supply operation, if the input AC (grid) voltage varies by ±5% from its nominal value for a duration of up to 2 seconds, including the transition to the reduced voltage and the recovery to nominal voltage, the power supply shall maintain the output current regulation within the specified short-term stability limits. This input AC voltage sag is expected due to the simultaneous operation of other power supplies in the accelerator facility.

3.1.3.14 Quench Protection Interface

The magnet loads are superconducting. Quench-related functions are divided between the power supply (Contractor scope) and external BNL equipment as follows:

• BNL Quench detection is an external Quench Detection System (QDS). The power supply shall not include integral quench detection.

• Quench protection shall be provided by the power supply (Contractor scope) and shall interface with the BNL Quench Detection System. Quench protection consists of receiving the quench signal from the external BNL Quench Detection System, executing a coordinated fast shutdown of the power stage, initiating the energy extraction sequence defined elsewhere in this specification, latching the fault condition, and reporting status to the PLC and BNL control system. Interfaces are defined in sections 3.1.10 Remote

Interface and 3.1.12 PLC Interface.

The power supply shall accept a quench signal input from the external BNL Quench Detection

System. The quench signal interface shall be Transistor-Transistor Logic (TTL) logic level. The signal details are:

• Polarity: Positive

• Voltage level 5V

• 50 Ohm termination

Upon receipt of a quench signal, the power supply shall execute the quench protection sequence consistent with the energy extraction architecture defined below and align with Figure 2.

Step-1: The quench link is pulled down by the quench detectors.

Step-2: The QPA controller waits for 10ms (configurable) for the beam abort to be completed.

Step-3: The trigger pulse to power supply modules is removed and then the crowbar gates are triggered.

Step-4: After 1ms delay of crowbar triggered, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) Q3 and

Q4, triggers are removed. IGBT must interrupt the power supply current within 20ms.

Step-5: After 20ms (Configurable), the DC contactors are deenergized. If IGBT has interrupted the current, the DC contactor opens at near zero current.

Step-6: If IGBT’s did not interrupt the current, the DC contactors will interrupt the power supply full output current (Worst case. This time must be less than 70ms)

The quench-triggered fault condition shall latch in the power supply. Reset shall be possible only through a coordinated reset procedure consistent with the external BNL Quench Detection System reset and shall be remotely resettable through the PLC interface.

The crowbar system shall incorporate redundancy through two independent trigger circuits, each backed by an independent external UPS-supported AC power supply. Triggering shall be accomplished via either a quench link or a self-trigger mechanism. The self-trigger voltage shall be configurable in both hardware and software, with separate setpoints for the Model A dipole and

Model B quad. These voltage setpoints shall be selected to ensure that triggering does not occur during normal ramp up/down operation. As shown in Figure 3.

The QPA shall provide main power supply isolation via a dedicated disconnecting switch. The

IGBT shall serve as the primary disconnect mechanism, with a DC contactor serving as the secondary disconnect mechanism. If the IGBT fails to open, the DC contactor shall be designed with arc suppression systems capable of interrupting the power supply while operating at rated current. The DC contactor shall meet the specifications defined in the A1 Specification Data Sheet.

All IGBT currents and gate driver circuits shall be monitored and interlocked with the PS/QPA fault system. Failure of any individual gate driver shall raise a PS/QPA fault, causing the power supply to initiate a controlled shutdown sequence. The IGBTs shall be sized properly by the

Contractor to meet the redundancy and specification requirements. A typical four IGBT configuration is shown in Figure 4. In the case of one IGBT failure the other parallel IGBTs shall be able to carry the rated current for continuous operation.

3.1.3.15 Energy Extraction

The stored magnetic energy in the superconducting magnet load shall be safely removed during quench events and other fast-shutdown scenarios through an external energy extraction circuit.

The energy extraction resistors are external BNL equipment and are not within the Contractor scope of this procurement.

The energy extraction architecture for each configuration is a center-tapped resistor arrangement as specified in the Attachment A1 Specification Data Sheet (Model A — HSR Main Arc Dipole:

0.1 Ω + 0.1 Ω center-tapped; Model B — HSR Main Arc Quad: 0.048 Ω + 0.048 Ω center-tapped;

see Figure 3]). The maximum magnet discharge voltage is 700 V for Model A and 336 V for Model

B, as specified in the Attachment A1 Specification Data Sheet.

Because the energy extraction resistors are BNL equipment and will not be available at the

Contractor's facility, the Contractor shall propose a factory test method that demonstrates the power supply's quench protection response and energy extraction operation without the BNL energy extraction resistors present. The proposed test method shall be submitted for BSA

Technical Representative approval as part of the test plan review.

3.1.3.16 Protection and Interlocks

The following devices or systems shall be incorporated in the power supply and shall be used to interlock the power supply to internal and external control devices. All the interlocks and controls of each power supply shall be connected to the PLC. All faults shall latch until reset.

Some of the interlocks described below are required to be wired in series with the master interlock relay. The master interlock relay is defined as the relay that, when de-energized, will de-energize the main contactor regardless of any other state or condition, and shall do so without any semiconductor devices. De-energizing the main contactor shall remove line voltage from the power components, but not the control components.

Over temperature protection of power electronic components is required. The over temperature detection devices shall be thermostat type switches (or equivalent) with contacts that are electrically isolated from the heat sink and shall be capable of meeting the high potential test specified in Section 4. The thermostats shall be automatic reset type with normally closed contacts.

The trip point of the thermostat shall be set to protect the power electronic components from exceeding the manufacturer's recommended maximum safe operating case temperature.

A single water flow switch shall be provided at the output of each power supply. The power supply shall use the Proteus series 7000, series 8000, or the IFM Electronic SA5000 water flow switches, or BSA approved equivalent. In order to use any other water flow switches, they must first be approved by the BSA technical representative in writing. The water flow switches shall be wired to the PLC for interlock control and alarm indication.

The power supply shall have a DC over current sensing device that has an adjustable trip setting from 10 percent to 110 percent of rated DC output current. The over current device shall use an independent shunt or Hall Effect current sensor, such as a LEM (Liaisons Electroniques et

Mecaniques) unit, for current sensing. The DC over current device shall be wired directly in series with the master interlock relay coil, so that an over current condition shall open the master interlock relay contacts. The DC over current device shall also provide status information to the PLC for other interlock control and alarm indication.

Door interlock microswitches shall be mounted on all hinged doors of the power supply control cabinet that lead to high power AC and DC circuitry. The switches used shall be the type that have a bypass capability. The door switches shall be wired directly in series with the master interlock relay contacts. The door interlock microswitches shall provide status information to the PLC. The door switches to be used must be reviewed and approved by the BSA technical representative in writing.

The temperature of the power supply cabinet shall be monitored by Resistance Temperature

Detectors (RTDs), which shall report their temperatures back to the PLC for analysis and processing. An over temperature interlock shall be provided. The device shall be adjustable between 100 °F and 200 °F.

Control circuits shall be designed in a fail-safe manner so that loss of power does not result in a hazardous operating condition or cause any damage to the power supply. Protective interlock circuits and power supply controls shall be designed so that reactivation of the interlock circuit

(i.e., completing the circuit) will not result in an automatic restoration of power to the equipment.

The power supply shall have DC over-voltage protection and interlocking circuitry, which shall be capable of protecting the power supply from over-voltage conditions at the DC terminals. The over-voltage protection equipment shall also provide a detection circuit that will be wired directly to the master interlock relay contacts. Status information shall also be provided to the PLC.

Provisions shall be made for external BNL interlock inputs. At minimum, the following interlock inputs shall be provided:

• System security

• Machine protection / access interlock (from the HSR machine protection system)

• Quench link signal

The specific signal definitions, contact forms, voltage levels, and response times for all external interlock inputs shall be coordinated with the cognizant BSA engineer for each interfacing system.

Interlocks shall be wired directly in series with the master interlock relay through an appropriate terminal board. Status of the remote interlocks shall be monitored by the PLC and annunciated.

BSA will provide isolated contacts for these interlocks. The open circuit voltage seen by these contacts shall not exceed 26 VDC. The voltage the interlock inputs at the power supply shall not exceed 48 VDC in either the open or closed state.

The status of all interlocks shall be locally annunciated through the Human Machine Interface

(HMI). The following is a list of some of the statuses that shall be required at a minimum, with the capability to add more:

• Input AC line fault: Over-current, Over-voltage, phase loss, phase sequence

• DC Output fault: Over-current, Over-voltage

• Power supply over temperature: Cubicle, power electronic components, transformers

• Water fault: flow, pressure, over-temperature

• Blown fuse indication and location

• Door interlocks

• External interlocks (load, security, machine protection, quench link signal)

• Ground fault

• Power supply states: OFF, Standby, ON, FAULT

All cabinet temperatures shall have a temperature sensor with an analog output that shall be monitored for operating conditions and sent to the PLC for analysis and processing.

3.1.3.17 Safety Considerations for Capacitors

For capacitors with voltages above 50 V (DC) or stored energy greater than 10 Joules, fully visible, manual-grounding devices shall be provided to render the capacitors safe while they are being serviced. Capacitor discharge and grounding points shall be clearly marked, and the circuit shall prevent transferring charges to other capacitors.

Permanently connected bleeder resistors shall be used for all capacitors with working voltages greater than 50 V and stored energy greater than 10 Joules. Capacitors in series shall have separate bleeder resistors. Automatic-shorting devices that operate when the equipment is de-energized or the enclosure is opened shall be used where practical. The time required for a capacitor to discharge to safe voltage (50 V or less) shall be less than 1 minute. Bleeder resistor sizing must conform to the National Electrical Code (NEC).

Capacitors used in parallel shall be individually protected, where necessary, to prevent the stored energy from dumping into a faulted capacitor and causing the capacitor to overheat catastrophically. Care must be taken in placement of automatic-discharge safety devices with respect to fuses. If the discharge will flow through the fuses, a prominent warning sign must be placed at each entry indicating that each capacitor must be manually grounded before work can begin.

A fan shall be added for ventilation to cool the capacitor bank so the capacitor bank temperature does not rise above 45 °C.

3.1.4 Power Semiconductor Ratings

3.1.4.2 The continuous current rating of all power semiconductors shall be at least two (2) times greater than the maximum Root Mean Square (RMS) current the device will conduct during operation of the power supply.

3.1.4.3 The power supply shall limit on/off or other induced switching transients to 50 percent of the published inverse and forward voltage ratings of all power semiconductor devices.

3.1.4.4 The power semiconductors shall be water cooled. The units shall be mounted and clamped on water-cooled heat sinks according to the recommendations of the semiconductor manufacturer. The maximum junction temperature shall not exceed 100 °C under worst-case load conditions. Individually cooled power semiconductors heat sinks shall have an over-temperature protection scheme, such as thermostat-type switches, mounted close to the power semiconductor which shall be set to trip before the device junction temperature reaches 100 °C. The output of these switches shall interlock the power supply and give status to the PLC. The Contractor may elect to support over-temperature protection using an alternate procedure. The Contractor shall provide calculations showing the expected temperature rise with their proposed cooling and protection scheme. This shall be approved by a BSA technical representative in writing. The over-temperature monitoring circuitry shall meet the high potential test specified in Section 4. Deionized water is required and will be provided at the resistivity specified in the Attachment A1

Specification Data Sheet.

3.1.4.5 All power semiconductors shall be mounted with consideration for replacement and maintenance accessibility. The Contractor's preliminary drawings shall show their position in the power supply.

3.1.4.6 For any power switching elements used in hard turn-off or switching control, suitable snubber circuits shall be provided to protect from voltage spikes and to reduce the EMI generated. These shall conform to MIL-STD-461.

3.1.4.7 For personnel safety and to aid in troubleshooting, there shall be firing pulse transformers or drive optical isolation for any power switching elements so that the low-level pulse generation circuitry is isolated from the high-power circuitry. Isolation levels must be approved during by the BSA technical representative. Low-level control circuitry and components shall not have any exposed voltages greater than 50 V with reference to chassis ground.

3.1.5 Acoustic Noise Requirements

The noise level three feet away from the power supply from all sources within the cubicle, including cooling fans, shall be less than 70 dB when the unit is on and operating.

3.1.6 Additional Features

3.1.6.1 The main contactor shall provide a pair of auxiliary Normally Closed (NC) contacts to a power supply interface connector for the BNL safety system. These contacts shall open when the power supply goes to the ON state and the main contactor is closed.

3.1.6.2 An Emergency Off switch — red, "mushroom" style, twist to reset — shall be provided in an easily accessible location on the front and rear of the power supply. This switch shall meet the certification requirements of IEC 60947-5-5 or equivalent. Activating the

Emergency Off switch shall instantly de-activate the main contactor, remove power to any power conversion circuits, de-energize the output to zero volts, latch a fault, and indicate the fault to the remote communication interface and locally to the front panel.

3.1.6.3 Control and other auxiliary power shall come through a separate control power transformer which is connected to the load side of the 480 V line circuit breaker. When the circuit breaker from the 480 VAC line is in the OFF position, the control power must be able to be energized from an external 120 VAC molded case plug. Control power shall have a separate fuse or fast-acting circuit breaker. Presence of control power shall be indicated by a pilot light on the front panel. There shall be an isolated 24 VDC at 3 A control power available at a terminal strip in the rear of the enclosure for BSA use.
