DESCRIPTION
The Battery Standby Charger (Option BC01 [9669]) con-
sists of a voltage regulator and relay switching circuit mounted
on a printed board to provide acharging current for the storage
battery when the station power supply is operating normally.
The relay switching circuit switches to battery power and
switches the power supply bleeder resistor from the circuit in
the event of a power failure. Typical charge time is 48 hours
for a 55 AMP-HOUR automotive type lead-acid battery, that is
in good condition.
Option 9670/9771 is the same as Option BC01 (9669) with the
addition of an RF Relay and connecting cables. 9670 is used
in tube stations, 9771 is used in solid state stationapplications.
The operation is the same as Option BC01 (9669) in addition
the RF Relay automatically switches the driver RF output
directly to the antenna Relay, thereby bypassing the High
Power RF Power Amplifier. The charger board mounts on the
inside of the rear panel of the driver power supply and all
necessary leads for connection to the power supply and battery
arehangingfromtheboard.The RF Relaymounts on thepower
panel of the High Power Station.
ADJUSTMENT AND TEST
Adjustment
R4 (R16 for Group 2) is set at the factory and normally doesn’t
need adjustment but if the voltage at the black and red battery
leads (with the battery disconnected) exceeds 14.5 Volts DC,
adjust R4 or R16 for 14Volts with the battery disconnected.
Test
To test the operation of the Relay switching circuit, turn off the
station power supply. The relay K1 should drop out and the
station should now be operating on the battery supply.
CIRCUIT ANALYSIS
When the station power supply is operating normally, approxi-
mately 22 Volts AC appears at H3 and H4. This voltage pro-
vides the input voltage for the bridge rectifier CR1-CR4. The
voltage and current regulator consists of Q1 (the pass transis-
tor) and Q2 (the driver transistor). R2 is the current sensing
resistor to limit the short circuit current. A voltage divider
network made up of R3, R4 or R16 and R5, providesa variable
voltage
adjusted with R4 or R16 to set the bias on the base of Q2
which in turn controls the conduction of Q1 (the pass transis-
tor). C1 and C806 provide filtering of the input voltage. The
output of the regulator is fused through F1 to provide over-load
protection. The regulated voltage also provides the voltage to
energize the K1 relay. When the station power supply is off for
any reason the regulator is off because no input voltage is fed
to it. With no voltage applied K1 de-energizes and the battery
is switched in as the power source and the power supply
bleeder resistor is switched out of the circuit. Refer to Figure
1 and Figure 2 for curves of RF Power output of the trans-
mitter against time for intermittent and continuous duty
stations.
