Selection of the
"15V Power Supply
The positive and negative supply of some
"15V dc power supplies
decay at different rates when ac power is removed. The module’s
output will be biased, based upon the difference in voltage level
between the positive and negative supply. The duration is dependent
upon the magnitude of the difference and the decay rate. For these
reasons, the
"15V dc power supply should have or be equipped with:
•
proper interlocks with machine operation and e-stop circuits
•
an internal voltage-sense relay that drops the
"15V (without
variation in decay rates) upon loss of ac power
•
auxiliary relay to indicate proper operation and voltage
(such as loss of +15V but not –15 V dc)
Power Supply Loading
