2000 125A Ferroresonant Rectifier J85502C-1
Issue 8 July 1999
Troubleshooting and Adjustments 7 - 3
Table 7-A: Troubleshooting
Problem
Probable Cause
Probable Corrective Action
1. Rectifier will not start.
(J2A should be
disconnected. If not, the
controller could be shutting
the rectifier down.)
1. No ac input to rectifier.
2. CM2 board is
defective.
1. Check for ac input voltage
to rectifier.
2. Check for ac voltage on
secondary of T2. See SD.
3. Check for +27 Vdc (±5 V)
across C1 on CM2. If not
present, but ac is present on all
secondaries of T2, check the
connection P1/J1 on CM1. If
the connection is okay, replace
the CM2 board per “Replacing
CM2 Control Board” in
Section 8.
4. Check wiring associated
with coil of K1, and contacts
4-7 of K2.
2. Rectifier attempts to start,
but K1 contactor does not
operate, (make “clunk”
sound) and RFA lights.
1. Fuses F1.1- F1.8,
FA1.1-FA1.8, and/or +V,
-V blown.
2. CM2 board is
defective.
1. Check fuses per “Clear
Rectifier Failure Alarm
(RFA)” in this section.
2. Measure output voltage
while rectifier is powering up.
If the output voltage exceeds
29 or 58 volts, the rectifier is
shutting down due to high
output voltage. See Probable
Causes associated with
Problem 4.
3. Rectifier goes to high
voltage at turn-on.
1. Output Volts Adj
potentiometer is set too
high.
2. CM2 board is
defective.
3. Open triac.
1. Turn potentiometer
counterclockwise.
2. Replace CM2 per
“Replacing CM2 Control
Board” in Section 8.
3. Replace triac per “Thyristor
(Q1)” in Section 8.
