20V/Div

SNUBBER SIGNAL TEST

1.Adjust the grid for a “light” load.

2.Turn ON the variable AC supply applied to the primary circuit. See Figure F.76.

3.Slowly increase the voltage until the filter capacitor voltage is 25VDC. See Figure F.77.

4.Adjust the grid load to get 5 amps output from the Power Wave. DO NOT PULL MORE

THAN 7-8 AMPS OUTPUT FROM THE POWER WAVE.

5.Set the Oscilloscope for:

5V/div/

20uS/div.

R1 12E or 12L

R2 402

R3 12F

R4 404

R7 12H

R8 408

0 V

20uS/Div

6.Attach the oscilloscope to each of the follow- ing eight test points. Each test point should look like the oscilloscope picture in Figure F.82.

WARNING

ALL METERS AND OSCILLOSCOPES MUST

BE ELECTRICALLY ISOLATED Isolated
