Zusammenfassung:Power converter unit (1,1') capable to convert an electrical input power into a bipolar output power and to deliver this output power to at least two independent plasma processing chambers (9a, 9b .. 9n), the unit (1,1') comprising: - one power input port (2) for connection to an electrical power delivering grid (7), - at least two, preferably more than two, power output ports (3a, 3b, .. 3n) each for connection to one of the plasma process chambers (9a, 9b, ... 9n), - a control device (4) configured to control the unit (1,1') to deliver the bipolar output power to the power output ports (3a, 3b, .. 3n), using control parameters of at least one of: power, voltage, current, excitation frequency, or threshold for protective measures, such that at least one of the control parameters at a first power output port (3a) is different from the corresponding control parameter at a different power output port (3b, ... 3n).
