Installation for repair of pulse power supplies

Repair of switching power supplies has its own characteristics. One of them is that it is not always possible to identify all defective parts. And then, when turned on after repair, the PSU usually fails completely. Fuse rarely helps out.

There is a proven way to avoid trouble. I have assembled and have been using a simple installation for repairing pulse power supplies for a long time. It protects the elements of the block from burning out during the incomplete replacement of all defective parts and shows the operability of the block.

The installation consists of the following main elements.
Two mains plugs with unusable cords, an old cartridge with a 230 V 60 W bulb, E27 base, socket, parquet board, electrical tape and fasteners.

I mounted all this according to the given diagram. A general view is shown in the photographs.
Installation for repair of pulse power supplies



The principle of operation of the installation is as follows.
The tested power supply is plugged into the outlet of the installation, after which the input plug of the installation is briefly connected to the 220 V.
If the bulb flashes briefly and then burns to the floor or does not light at all, you can try to turn on the unit directly.

If the lamp is lit completely - immediately disconnect from the network. This indicates that the unit is not working properly, not all defective elements have been replaced. The bulb in this case plays the role of a current limiter, not allowing the main elements of the power supply to fail - a diode bridge, a powerful high-voltage transistor, and others.

The second plug - a jumper is needed to check the operation of the installation, in this case it is plugged into the outlet of the installation. The lamp should light up completely. This is also necessary when the installation checks the bulbs with the E27 base. Currently, there are many types of lamps (for example, LED) that the tester does not ring. For certain reasons, a short-circuited plug is an integral part of the device and is wound with electrical tape.

Installation never let me down. The only thing to keep in mind is that a significant load should not be connected to the power supply at the time of such a check, otherwise the lamp will start to flash or burn almost completely.

It took me about an hour to assemble the installation, and over the course of a month, it helped me repair an automatic washing machine, monitor, and laptop charger.

I successfully continue my research work (R&D) "On the influence of a magnetic field on water meters." After I established where the multipolar magnet is located in the counter SVK15 - 3 - 2, an important moment has come. Magnet Test.

To do this, I partially collected the upper (where the wheels are with numbers) part of the counter. 3 gears and a glass cover has not yet been put. Along the way, he made technological markers with a permanent felt-tip pen so that it would be more convenient for me to collect them in the future. With a tiny neodymium magnet from a CD drive, I began to make circular movements counterclockwise and clockwise around the center of the counter. This is where the multi-pole magnet is located. I also made sharp movements with a magnet on and against the center of the counter. Maintained in all cases the distance to the counter no closer than 30 mm. Where I brought the magnet, pointed an arrow. Excellent results were obtained. It was possible to make the counter spin not only in the forward, but also in the opposite direction. Moreover, with great speed. If such a magnet is mounted on a mini electric drill cartridge, it will be possible to rewind the meter reading by the desired amount in a few seconds. My work on this is not over. There is a complete assembly, assembly in the body, new tests.

I found that the counter can work in two directions of the account.
Not you first! There are many offers on the Internet, such as a removed counter for a vacuum cleaner to “unwind” the counter! smile

I continue my research work "On the influence of a magnetic field on water meters." As an object of research, I use a decommissioned counter SVK15 - 3 - 2 of the Arzamas Instrument-Making Plant named after P.I. Plandin.
I divided the meter case into two parts. And took up the difficult part.

Here are located. Multipole magnet, several gears and a mechanical counter. The multi-pole magnet rotates under the influence of the magnetic field of the impeller located in another part of the meter housing (we will consider later). The rotation of this magnet through a gear system is transmitted to a mechanical counter. This is a common type of counter. Reset buttons to zero, of course, he does not. I found that the counter can work in two directions of the account. It is very important. Consider this point later.

Suddenly the target rose. And almost immediately the exact hit in it! Schwark!
Targets remotely both rise and fall, without any hits and mooring! They can be held even when hit! And if the fighters ask the fellow countryman - the operator to "hold" the targets when their "favorite" ensign shoots, he will receive a deuce in shooting, even if the targets are in rags! I know short-term vacation, but what is “small”? smile

Valery. A friend told me. He, too, as you put it, "Rummaged a bit." And he, the signalman, was sent to correct the work of targets at the training ground. He found that for some reason the target control cable was pulled. Spliced ​​wires. Sits, resting not far from the target. Suddenly the target rose. And almost immediately the exact hit in it! Schwark! Some idiot shot! The target fell over, a friend too. Well, I wet my pants a little, the incident was hushed up, and my friend was released on a short vacation.
I explained how to emphasize the Internet ... This does not mean that this should always be done ...
P.S. Why are there birds !!! He knew a man who, after a hundred grams, spoke with the stars. At the same time, I had a dialogue !!! But, everyone heard only his phrases, and the phrases of stars - only he! )))))))
P.S. On the Internet, if that, a lot of brackets after the text mean that what is said is a joke!

he is one hundred percent interest
Yes, at least two hundred! But, in any case, an associate professor with a portfolio of vodka goes to the store! yahoo
Well, this is a system with a transformer into a power outlet and grounding to water pipes (some idiots are grounded to heating pipes, and some, even to gas pipes).

..I was an emergency signalman. (Not a kind of troops. There was another post. Just appointed when they saw that "I’m a little shy")))). Under the barracks there was a bunker (ZKP), where we had a closet in case we had something to solder ... A partner dragged a cassette player from somewhere and we listened to music. Prapor (our boss) drove us ... Like, there wasn’t any music. Work !!! 220 in our room went through it. And once he took, and cut the wire, and put the usual switch in the gap. Like, you have 36 soldering irons. And 220 ladies, when needed! ...
And then I sat, missed ... And put the neon bulb with one contact into the socket ... (There was no indicator screwdriver))). And she take it and catch fire ... Oops! The ensign also had no indicator!))) He tore the zero !!!
... P.S. And the "earth" in the underground bunker is very good! boss
And if docen has documents in his portfolio, then he is one hundred percent docent !!!)))))

I pay one third. Two thirds of theft
I steal electricity in the autumn, when the supplying organization is in no hurry to turn on the heating, and I have to turn on the electric heating. Water - when they turn off hot for the whole summer! This is not even theft, but some penalties for offices that do not fulfill their contractual obligations! And so, I have everywhere LED lamps and LCD TVs, together with my wife I do not consume much!
Angry, I assumed
If I got angry, I would also recall your shooting at the cops, with their subsequent disarmament, after which they sent you not to the bunk, but to a 900-kilogram (up to 1.5 tons) bear with a PM, and other pranks, from which munhausen opandgot down! xaxa
P.S.
I pay one third. Two thirds steal. I return one third to the general network.
Do you return to the general network paid, or from stolen? xaxa

Angry, I assumed. And about the fact that access to inspectors is limited, I suspected that is why you have not seen them for 25 years. Those that read electricity meters appear once every half a year in the best case, usually much more often. And I live in an unprotected area. In my house, not 3, but several hundred families. I pay for electricity in an interesting way. I pay one third. Two thirds steal. I return one third to the general network. And I extinguish quite powerful emissions in the general network. A light bulb with a burnt base that I showed, perhaps the result of insufficient adjustment of my equipment.But certainly not a bad contact in the cartridge, as they wrote to me here.

I have a big doubt that the counters (as I understand from your comment, it’s not just about the electric meter) have been with you for at least 25 years, those who believe and check you don’t come all these years, do not bother
Doubts are your problems! Read carefully! Where about the counters for 25 years? I'm changing! 3 families live in the house, located in a protected departmental area! Therefore, there are no testers!
For a quarter century, there wasn’t a single inspector in my house, counters change myself
And why are you changing then, why are you stopping with a magnet.
Then, like you, so as not to
pay as without a counter
Models of meters I pointed out! yahoo

Korolev. I have a big doubt that the counters (as I understand from your comment, it’s not just about the electric meter) have been with you for at least 25 years, and those who have been believing and checking you have not come to you all these years, they don’t bother. Change everything yourself, hand over to yourself, seal, take into operation. And why are you changing then, why are you stopping with a magnet. No offence. Presenting a box from the meter, which I installed on hot water last year. Which stood earlier did not pass the next calibration and the water company refused to accept its testimony further. That is, pay as without a counter.

The photo shows the brand of the counter and many of its characteristics. I emphasize your attention. See what is written? ANTI-MAGNETIC. This is what I was talking about. Do not stop with a magnet, do not even try. Moreover, on the counter itself I did not see this inscription. I’ll take readings, I’ll look, maybe there is some kind of badge there.
And now I show a photo of the other side of the box from the same counter.

We see that an intertesting interval of 6 years is indicated here. And your counters have been used without verification for 25 years, at least. They generally do not serve as much, especially in hot water to_clue .
And this is a photo of the meter that stood in my hot water. I took it from the guy from the water utility, which I installed, sealed and commissioned a new one. Selected, it is said very much. I just told him. Why do you need an old counter? Give it to me. Give in good, voluntarily. He gave.

Judging by the design, this counter can probably be stopped with a magnet. We will return to this topic. Regards R555.

Something I didn’t see you before so much, Valery. Before I said that I couldn’t, yet I couldn’t, put an accent mark in words. You also need to think about the fact that someone can offend, they say, he is forced to perfectly pronounce the words, not taking into account, for example, the dialect of the area where he grew up or lives. And he (she), knows 20 languages, 10 dialects, 15 slangs and the voices of birds understands)))
in the dress it says DISABLED and your address converges
My wife's sister wrote a statement to turn off the wired telephone. They came, turned off in the shield on the site. The phone both worked and still works, although phone bills have stopped coming. But the doorbell I had to reconnect! xaxa

Korolev, as usual, I am enclosing several funny, truthful and instructive stories, in this case, about manipulating counters. A friend told me. He assembled a stopping system, rewinding old-style electric meters. Well, this is a system with a transformer into a power outlet and grounding to water pipes (some idiots are grounded to heating pipes, and some, even to gas pipes). The installation was located in the bathroom. Suddenly, he was busy with something at the doorbell. Opened without asking who is there. And this is a man checking with energy sales. Well, a friend was confused, fussed, rushed to the bathroom to hide the transformer. It was immediately exposed. The reviewer said. man, you hit. You pi ... l have electricity from the state, and it is not known how many years. The fine will be huge. But that's not all.You used a hazardous installation for people with grounding on pipes. Article. And that's not it. You won’t pay me off with bribe money. Where do you work, what can you steal or have you already stolen? Somehow they agreed and a few days later the inspector arrived by car, took the transformer from the bathroom. Various valuable (for an understanding person) materials that my friend stole at the factory, where he worked for several years. They found a common language, agreed. ***** I had one time hard with finances. I did not pay long for electricity. The guys from the energy supply came, clicked on my machine guns in the shield on the site and sealed them with stamped paper. I thought I spit on this seal. I need to work, earn money, there are orders. And how without lipadrism? In a couple of weeks I’ll pay, they will come, they will officially turn it on. For now, try to carefully turn on the machines without damaging the piece of paper. And it almost happened, but at the last moment, the piece of paper was damaged. Okay, I think, verification will not come earlier than in a month. Something will think. And they came in a few days !!! And they noticed that the seal was broken. What arrogance on my part! The shield was locked, the code from which only I and the neighbors knew. There were no neighbors at home. How can I teach a lesson how to cut off the power of an apartment without opening the shield? They managed to pull out the phase wire through the minimum slots, cut it and push it back into the shield. I watched it through the peephole and partially listened to their joyful remarks, what kind of specialists they are. After some time, I was able to correct my financial situation, I paid the debt for electricity. I called the power supply and asked to connect. They said that at such a time our installer will come and connect. Monter came and declared. I came to DISCONNECT your apartment for not paying. You moron, uncle. They sent you to turn on the light for me, I paid off the debt, here I have documents confirming payment. Not, he says, it’s written in my outfit DISCONNECT and your ADDRESS converges. But then he realized that this was a bureaucratic mistake. He opened the shield to him, plug in, I say. And he, and how to connect, I do not know, I can not figure out the wires. Listen, what the hell are you an electrician, I’ll let you down from the stairs, I said. Here, you see, your colleagues bit the phase wire from the machine, insulated and stuffed it back into the shield. And you cannot find. Under my leadership, he did it. Until now, when I pay the next electricity bill, I recall this story.

For exposing the violator, the believer receives a bonus.
For a quarter century, there was not a single inspector in my house, I change the counters myself, I ask you to seal it - they give stickers. Himself set, seal yourself! xaxa

My grandfather said, “Document”, if he is in “Portfolio”, and if he is in “Portfolio”, then “Document”, although he went to Magazin for vodka! smile
Valery, and before sending my message I reread its text and thought that some would justify ... But I decided not to change the text

So I'm not just ...)))). I actually read it with such stress twice, and tried to understand what you meant by that phrase! ... And when it came to, I laughed out loud.))))
. And I don’t know how to put an accent mark, if this is even possible here.

On the Internet, everyone is already accustomed to capitalizing if you need to emphasize the stressed vowel. (Eg. "Document", "Portfolio", "Docent", etc.)))))))))

Korolev, I like your message, I liked the frankness that where and how you have equipment and magnets. And for some reason, I believe that by tinkering, you succeeded in what you write about. Fundamentally, I will not look for documentation on these meters. Just keep in mind that it is possible to create strong residual magnetization. I have information that Some believers have in their kit Modern Means to determine the fact of the use of strong magnetic fields to influence the meter.The fines have always been large, and now, they are simply gigantic. For exposing the violator, the believer receives a bonus. Will always look for a way to expose. I have a shield standing outside the apartment, on a common platform. Please check, double-check the readings of my meter, but there is no reason to go to my apartment. Checking, by the way, a man acquaintance. We met by chance, he was in my apartment, when I injured my leg, I could not walk. And I had to sign in his journal, confirm the correctness of his data. After all, he is also rechecked at the top!)). He told me. You have a modern counter, until 2023, whether it’s a year, there will be no complaints. I’ve been checking your house for 12 years, long before you bought this apartment here.

and how did you use magnets from the speakers - one ring
Yes, I wrapped the tape around the ring, so more aesthetically, I found a place - in the upper right quarter behind the counter.
many argue that u stop the electric meter with a magnet
Counter "Mercury - 201", a neodymium magnet to the left of the LED - it works for me! I have a counter in the hallway. good

No, well, it works on certain types, I guess. But personally, I did not come across such. And my friends borrowed powerful magnets, they returned them back, they said, it doesn’t work, just like they didn’t spin. Many different people and counters. By the way, it is curious, but how did you use magnets from the speakers - one ring (magnet) or together with the glands? And many more claim that they stop the electric meter with a magnet. These counters also come in different systems. And when there is an aluminum disk, or, as now, they are forcing everyone to put electronic ones on, it will not work. Recently, my friend bought a "secret" electric meter. With a remote control. I speak seriously. It turns out that such meters are serially assembled not in any basement, but at the factory. There are modes. Disable, reduce the current reading by as much, as much and as many percent. Unwind is not provided, it is correct. Checkers can fill. I asked a friend, but how did you change the old meter to this new one and put it into operation, sealed up. And he has a friend in the energy distribution company, he replaced and sealed. Well, such a counter costs three times more than usual, without a remote control. But a friend drives moonshine on an electric stove, so that he will pay off quickly. Before, before each race, he rearranged the jumper with the risk of being noticed by neighbors or a believer.

Change the cartridge ... Bad contact. It warms up - "where it is thin", here it burns out.)))
I watched this. Especially in cheap ceramic cartridges.
Yes, not described.

Damn ... I read it twice ... Only then I realized that I put the stress in the wrong place ...
I am laughing with myself, you moron ...)))))

By the way, I want to say about the stop counters. Full of crap.
I have been working on the SGV-15 "Betar" perfectly for several years simple, from old computer (case) speakers! yes

Yes, there is a magnet in the clip of the disk, and in the drive engines, too, of course, I am in the know. Only not neodymium. Weak magnets stand there, as in the engines of trains, moonwalkers, cars from the 70s. And the chandelier is not just Chinese, but domestic. I also thought of not contacting in the cartridge, but given that the antennae are pressed to the base from two sides, it is not clear how it happened. The bulb is only 40 watts of power, the internal fuse has tripped. The light bulb worked fine for several months. Nobody touched the chandelier, why, suddenly, there was no contact. Okay, I think this will not happen again. I want to add about magnets. It is not entirely correct to call everything neodymium, as it is now fashionable. It is more correct to call rare earths.At one time I traded on Avito various components. All announcements were accepted. Ad for the sale of various magnets Admin immediately covered. I asked him why. Got an answer - sale with the content of rare earth elements. Prohibited. That's because I wrote about neodymium magnets. And speakers, speakers - please sell. And in many, if not most modern, magnets with rare earth elements. The admin, apparently, did not know this. Recently I went to a small plumbing shop. Behind the counter, apparently, the owner of the store. I look, in the corner, a subtle announcement of the sale of neodymium magnets, but there are no samples of the magnets themselves. I asked to show. He was frightened, fussed, said, but why would they stop the water meters, right? (Plumbing shop, buy a counter and a magnet, a set)). I say, I need for scientific work, I’m writing a dissertation on the interaction of magnetic fields))). Then he showed. But I did not buy from him, it seemed a little expensive. Bought from a friend. By the way, I want to say about the stop counters. Full of crap. You can magnetize so that the counter stops. Forever and ever. There on the impeller its magnet is weak. And in modern counters there is an anti-magnetic screen, not overpower. Checked.
R555
Here, too, in the magnetic lens control system
I’ll tell you a secret that the magnet also stands in the clamp of the disk to the spindle! The question is not for me, but rather for our Chinese comrades. When I buy a chandelier, I immediately change cartridges, thank God, you can still find normal ones! Judging by your picture, it was worthless contact in the cartridge! smile

Korolev. I decided to talk about a recent, not entirely clear case. At the time of inclusion, the incandescent light bulb in the chandelier burned out. Not just burned out, and banged. This does not surprise me. It happened that the flask flew out of the basement and flew overhead through the whole room. However, after replacing, I decided to inspect the burned out bulb. Found a rather strange picture. The spiral burned out on both sides. Of course, an internal fuse (one that is in the form of a thin wire in a spiral circuit) has blown. The tungsten spiral sprayed onto the flask inside. A typical, familiar picture. But! I found that there was also some kind of dusting on the flask outside (it was erased with a fingernail). The base burned through and through! The tip of the nail comes in. He took a small neodymium magnet from the CD drive. Yes, not described. Everyone knows that these magnets are in hard drives. Here, too, in a magnetic lens control system. The cap is barely magnetized. Not galvanized steel, as I thought at first. Well, yes, the Jester with him, with the base material. Metal is not so thin. I can’t understand how it is, despite the fact that the contacts of the cartridge, the wires did not burn out, and in the four other horns of the chandelier the bulbs remained intact. I enclose a photo of the light bulb. Regards, R555.

Straight ingenious, ten years ago did the same, the current in the case from the computer BP

The light bulb can play the role of a load (select by current and voltage), the protection role (select by a higher power), bypass with a switch. Current protection by automatic device, thermoresistance, etc., select PSU current.

Couplers, brackets are, adapt was not made for one day, of course.I wanted to do it faster, I need it all the time. Not for the sake of putting on the site. I am ready for other homemade products, everything is in order with the design. I will publish it.
And boast of age .. I'm older, a few years. I honestly say, I’m not a cool solder (contour, streamlined, etc. soldering criteria). And different punishments were applied to me for miscalculations in my work. Sophisticated. Starting from, I brought beer 10 cans of 3 liter glass from the tank, I brought one by tram. Or. You take the loafers from the workshop to the bastards’s utility rooms and so that by the morning 1000 absolutely working picture tubes are written off. Only without injuries. Demand from you.

I do not know why I did not like the electrical tape. How many colleagues I know, at best, they attach a light bulb to the plug and wiring to the outlet
But in the distant 1969, at the station of young technicians, in the Palace of Pioneers and Schoolchildren, they taught me that you have to respect your work and try to do everything well, but it’s worthless! You did not have plastic brackets for the cable, or at least just plastic ties? You didn’t make a one-time adapt! Moreover, they posted it on public display - learn and repeat, good people! I also worked as a regulator of radio equipment, only the devices were more serious, so they punished me even for “sharp” soldering! scratch

I decided not to put off my venture with high-current thermal parts in a long drawer and, for starters, I removed 3 parts from unnecessary import boards

I haven’t looked for data yet, but I checked with a digital multimeter how they react to heating. In different ways, in the sense that in 2 resistance increases with heating, and in 1 decreases. I can say for sure that these parts are designed for at least 220 V and high current. But I'm interested in their speed. Also on the killed PSU for halogens I saw a tiny thermal fuse, on the case it says 130 gr. Celsius. His speed is probably high, but I don’t know what kind of pressure and current it is designed for. Today I will experience all this. I do not want to greatly complicate the device circuit.

In fact, I have an idea. No incandescent bulb needed. The board from the old monitor is lying around, you need to take the posistor from it, which is in the circuit of the demagnetization loop of the kinescope, and the board from the flat monitor is lying around, take from there that limits the inrush current when turned on, the thermistor. It will turn out fast, with a switch on the hand it’s not real, and different devices can be checked. So far, the circuit has not completely taken shape in the head, but these 2 components, I think, come in handy.
Author
I largely agree with the criticism. It should have been modestly called. Not an installation, but a device for repairing pulse power supplies. Regarding the switch. Included through an extension cord. I’ll put a backlit switch. I do not know why I did not like the electrical tape. As far as I know colleagues, at best, they attach a light bulb to the plug and wiring to the outlet. And when he worked at the factory as a regulator of Soviet color TV, we had no protection at all. Just think, the PSU broke up when it was turned on - threw it into the box, went, took a new one from the picker. More than sure, I’ll do everything wisely, as they advise me, so there will be those who cite, they say where you have a ground wire in the circuit ...
Of course, it doesn’t pull on the "installation", or rather to call it - "device", "block" or "device".
And the scope is artificially narrowed: so you can check almost any electrical device. The limitation is only on the power consumption of these devices.
Installation for repair of pulse power supplies
What is this settingif not even an elementary switch? I will not say anything about electrical tape. scratch
This is not a "setup for repair ", and" installation for control (test) inclusion after repair. "After all, it does not directly repair it.
A similar installation was already published here.
