6.5  Maximum Power Limit

The myVolt Touch Power Supply has a maximum power output 
of 100 Watts.

Per Ohms Law:  

Power (P) = Current (I) x Voltage (V)

If the maximum power is reached during an electrophoresis run, 
the non-constant parameter will be limited to prevent exceeding 
the maximum power output

.

CAUTION:  

It is not recommended to run the power supply at or 

near the maximum wattage, as this will cause the power supply 
and gel tank to get hot.  Most standard electrophoresis buffer 
concentrations will not have such low resistance that the current 

and voltage level will come close to the maximum power limit.

6.4  Automatic Cross Over

During an electrophoresis run, the power supply will attempt to 
maintain the constant voltage or amperage setting, depending on 
which parameter is set to “CONSTANT”.

If, during a run, the non-constant parameter setting (limit) is met 
due to the resistance of the load, the power supply will 
automatically “cross over” so the non-constant parameter will 
now be the constant and limiting parameter.  A red outline will 
appear around the new “constant” value.

In CONSTANT CURRENT mode, the power supply will output 

the set mAmp current parameter, and the voltage will fluctuate 
relative to the resistance of the load (buffer concentration in the 
attached electrophoresis tanks) up to a maximum of the voltage 
setting that has been chosen.
