Abstract
An apparatus for energizing a large scale medical imaging system, preferably in the form of a CT scanner so that the scanner operates off an uninterruptable power supply in the event that the external power falls below sufficient power to operate the system so that system operation remains uninterruptable. The system is designed to operate off a broad range and types of external power supplies including those providing DC, single or three phase AC power. The system therefore can operate from a common single phase AC outlet. In addition, power factor correction is provided so that the system can correct for phase differences between the voltage and current at the input line created by the input impedance of the system.
