    [SOLVED] Slow start 220V single phase induction motor

    Take a look at this article about flat belt pulley crowning: Flat belt tracking on pulleys. You should be able to crown the lower pulley easily with a mill file will the motor is running or take it to a machine shop and have it turned on a lathe. Happy sawing!

    Transistor for Flourescent Ballast

    ballast fluorescent lamps+transistor type Kip: Finally got around to reading the patent, too many other things in the way :( In the text, a NPN transistor 2N3055 is mentioned along with a few other components and some of their values. How did the repair job turn out? Tanuki

    Transistor for Flourescent Ballast

    d882 ballast Kip: "I'd be interested if your program can suggest an NPN transistor by number"? No, Micro-Cap is circuit simulator (SPICE); the user has to select the specific components from a limited library or make their own SPICE model of a part. I think many NPN transistors will work...

    Transistor for Flourescent Ballast

    cfl schematic why they fail Kip Thanks for the pointer on the patent, I didn't read it just looked at the pictures ... 20KHz will be my target frequency then. One other thing, when the lamps fail are they operating or do they fail to start. If they were operating then it was most likely...

    Transistor for Flourescent Ballast

    transistor marking kip Great, the new photos take all of the guessing out of it. Backlighting worked really well. I've got the circuit completed now. The NPN transistor pinout is Pin 1: Base, Pin 2: Collector, Pin 3: Emitter. The emitter is connected to white wire (i.g. ground). Collector to...

    Transistor for Flourescent Ballast

    transistor role in cfl pcb Found this patent issued to Thin-Lite for a switchable two lamp system which has the schematic for your PCB. There are several unloaded components on the PCB and most likely this schematic is the full monty. From what I've reversed so far, it looks nearly identical...

    85 watt fluorescent ballast schematics Kip: Sorry to be delayed so long, I had to repair a friend's computer that had a bad hard drive controller. I started reversing the PCB today and I need some help. I'm creating a micro-Cap simulation scehmatic. Once we get all of the parts and...

    Transistor for Flourescent Ballast

    kip hansen floursecent ballast I found some cross referencs to IR parts. It could be IRFR9024N. http://search.digikey.com Your local wiz-guy should be able to tell between a bipolar transistor and a FET with only a DC volt-meter. If he has an oscilloscope then even better. If you...

    question about step up hihg power DC DC converter?

    dc-dc inverter 4kw Ok, EV motor control. Regardless of the SMPS topology, the SMPS must be bidirectional, i.e. able to move power in either direction, to the load or from it. Most SMSP topologies can be converted to bidirectional operation so Full Bridge is not the only solution. It is a...

    question about step up hihg power DC DC converter?

    step up dc dc converter There was perviously no mention of a motor control. Is there regenative braking? You need to specify more completely what you need and want help for.
