[0034] The working principle of a converter detection circuit in this embodiment is as follows:
[0035] Connect the voltage regulator connector to the spring-loaded voltage regulator (TY-8 type), the filter connector to the filter (LBQ-12), the first connector J2 to the converter (DBL-4500), the second connector J9 to the converter (DBL-4500), and the converter (DBL-4500) to the DC regulated power supply using cables respectively;
[0036] Adjust the voltage regulator potentiometer so that the resistance between pin 7 of the first connector J2 and pin 2 of the second connector J9 is 200Ω±10%.
[0037] The power supply for the DC regulated power supply is 27VDC;
[0038] When the power switch is closed, the AC voltage and current dual display meter and the digital display frequency meter are connected to the 220VAC power supply and are in working condition.
[0039] When the start switch is closed, the converter (DBL-4500) starts, the first indicator LED1 lights up, and the AC voltage and current dual display shows 115V±3%, while the digital frequency display shows 388-420Hz. The above operations aim to achieve the purpose of testing the converter's start-up.
[0040] Based on the above operations, further:
[0041] When the load switch is closed, load-1 and load-2 close simultaneously. At this time, the forced exhaust fan starts running and the load module is connected.
[0042] Close the overload switch to connect the rated full load or 10% overload load;
[0043] Under an ambient temperature of 20±10℃ and a rated voltage (27V) of the DC regulated power supply, a heating test was conducted according to the parameters shown in Table 1, as shown below:
[0044]
[0045]
[0046] Table 1
[0047] The experimental results were as follows: the DC regulated power supply voltage was 27VDC, the current consumption was no more than 280A, the output voltage was 115V±3%, the frequency was 388-420Hz, the output current under full load was 39.1A, the output current under 10% overload was 43A, and the efficiency of the DC regulated power supply was no less than 52%, where efficiency = output power / input power × 100%. The above operations were intended to achieve the purpose of testing the converter's heating and rated data.
[0048] Building upon the above operations, we can go a step further:
[0049] After the heating test, under thermal conditions and at the rated voltage of the DC regulated power supply, the no-load current of the converter is checked to be no greater than 75A. This is to achieve the purpose of testing the no-load current of the converter.
[0050] Building upon the above steps, the following further steps can be taken:
[0051] Use a screwdriver to remove the DC end cover and attach the reflective strip to the rotor;
[0052] Run the converter under no-load conditions at its rated voltage (27VDC regulated power supply). Slowly adjust the centrifugal control potentiometer while simultaneously using a non-contact tachometer aligned with the reflector strip to measure the converter's speed. When the second indicator LED2 illuminates, record the tachometer reading; it should be within the range of 9600±500 R / min. This aims to test the converter's automatic disconnection device.
