DRSSTC System Instructions
Please read this manual in its entirety before building, testing, or operating your
Plasmasonic DRSSTC system.
Pre-Setup Inspection
Pre-setup inspection must take place EACH and EVERY time you set-up and operate
your Plasmasonic DRSSTC Tesla Coil system. This inspection process ensures that all
connections are properly secured and that reduces the likelihood of a failure due to an
improperly placed or connected component, wire, or other system component.
1. Check and ensure that all cables, wires, and connections are properly secured
and connected among all the subassemblies within the system. You will be
looking for any loose wires, connectors, or terminals that may have come undone
during the shipping / handling process. You should be making this check EACH
and EVERY time before you assemble and operate the Plasmasonic DRSSTC.
2. There are two thermistors components on the Power Distribution Assembly.
These are labeled RT1 and RT2 on the Power Distribution board. It is extremely
important to ensure that these components are vertical and that there is
approximately 0.5” space between each of them. During handling, these
components do have the tendency to move towards each other. Ensure there is
adequate space between the components prior to powering up the Plasmasonic
DRSSTC. Also, be sure not to overly move these components, as excessive
movement of the leads may cause them to break overtime. The following photo
shows the location of these two components and the proper spacing each should
have. Failure to have proper spacing between the two components may result in
arcing and ultimately failure of the components.
