1-11. POWER AND VOLTAGE CIRCUITS
P O W E R CIRCUITS
PP-4763
Single
ac
power
switch.
Turns power supply ON, OFF.
Protects against overloading power
supply.
Power ON: Connects 115-volt ac source to primary winding, power transformer T-1,
and to fan motor B1.
PP-4763A
Dual ac power switch.
Turns power supply ON, OFF.
In series with both legs of ac input power.
Power ON: Connects either 115-or 230-volt ac source to primary winding, power
SAFETY INTERLOCK SWITCH S1:
Opens input power circuit when unit's top panel is removed.
This is a protective control.
Functional Analysis of Power Circuit Parts
TRANSFORMER T1:
Secondary
winding:
Power secondary supplies full-wave bridge
rectifier
( r e c t i f i e r diodes CR1, CR2, CR3, and CR4).
Two control secondaries supply circuit card assembly PC101 (Al).
SILICON CONTROLLED RECTIFIER SCR1 (Q1):
Connected
in
bridge
rectifier
outlet.
Regulates
dc
output.
REACTOR L2:
Connected
in
ac
supply
to
bridge
rectifier.
Introduces
time delay needed
to operate SCR1
(Q1).
Connected
across
bridge
rectifier's
output.
Provides discharge path for filter reactor L1.
Prevents
continued
firing
of
SCR1
(Q1).
BLEEDER RESISTORS R1, R10:
Connected
across
bridge
rectifier's
output.
Stabilize
power
supply's
operations
during
low-load
conditions.
PP-4763A includes choke L3 in series with R10.
