THEOR Y OF OPERA TION IDEALARC SP-250 Figure E.1 -Block Logic Diagram NOTE: Unshaded areas of Block Logic Diagram are the subject of discussion THEORY OF OPERA TION SECTION ...................... Section E Power Supply Operation ......................
E-1 THEOR Y OF OPERA TION E-1 IDEALARC SP-250 INPUT LINE VOL T AGE AND MAIN TRANS- FORMER The desired single phase input power is connected to the SP-250 through a line switch located on the front panel. A reconnect panel allows the user to configure the machine for the desired input voltage.
E-2 THEOR Y OF OPERA TION E-2 IDEALARC SP-250 OUTPUT RECTIFICA TION AND FEED- BACK CONTROL The AC output from the main transformer secondary weld winding is rectified and controlled through the SCR rectifier assembly . Output voltage and current are sensed at the shunt and output terminals and fed back to the control board.
E-3 THEOR Y OF OPERA TION E-3 IDEALARC SP-250 CONST ANT VOL T AGE OUTPUT The controlled DC output from the SCR rectifier assembly is filtered by the capacitor bank and the out- put choke, which is in series with the gun and welding load, resulting in a constant voltage output at the out- put terminals of the machine.
E-4 THEOR Y OF OPERA TION E-4 IDEALARC SP-250 WIRE DRIVE MOTOR AND FEEDBACK The wire drive motor is controlled by the control board. A motor speed feedback signal is generated at the motor tach and sent to the control board.
