Due to stringent requirements on the spatial harmonic content of ISABELLE's magnetic field, the magnet power supplies for the half-cell prototype must be dynamically accurate and stable to within 0.01% of their full-scale rating. Depending on the application, the full-scale current of various units comprising the system ranges from +-50 A to 4000 A. The system, as constructed is fully controllable and programmable either manually or with a control computer. The magnet power supply system described was constructed and interconnected with the half-cell computer control equipment. A number of power supply units were tested with inductive test loads in both the manual and the computer control modes. Test results on stability and speed of response indicate that all systems perform according to specifications.
