|
The fan in the EZL power supply is making a terrible noise - keep an eye on it, it sounds like it might give up soon.
Monday, April 23, 2018, 10:47: The back panel was opened. Original entry stated EZL power supply issue. Corrected to BIAS PS. High voltage
group notified. Fan replacement required. |

Ramped coil to 60A (0.4V) (attachment 2)
Ramped bias to 51kV, but then TP6 turned off and there was a momentary 0.2A decrease in the TGHT current. No spike in BIAS current seen, maybe |

|
The resistor/varistor combinations across the target + / -, tube + / - and target- / tube + have been remade and moved to the back of the power supplies
to limit the corona discharges at higher voltages. Pictures attached. |

|
I have removed the resistor/varistor combinations that go between the poles of the target and tube heaters, and between those two supplies. I tested
all the components to make sure they were still working after the sparks - for the record the varistors clamp at 23V, not 33V as implied by the schematic.
