- Gentleman, I have started bread boarding my power supply. So far I have it set for the filament transformer and fan to come on first, run for 3 ( adjustable ) min then kick in a relay for 0 to280v to

- You can add a soft start, some do and some don't. A 10 second delay though is a little too long for the soft start on the HV transformer. You only need about 4 to 5 seconds as that's actually over th

- The Henry RF generator using a 4 KW power supply at 4000 VDC and a filter choke only use a .5 second soft start. The 1/2 second delay seems to be plenty even with 30 mf of caps and no filter choke. I

- Larry, Yes, it very well could as the 4-5 seconds was a guess for the longest time. The reason, a ham on this mailer ran a test and sent me the results from a logging oscilloscope which showed the in

- Agreed - most step-starts take way too long. When the step-start is about right, the first and second current steps will be about equal. You can tell this, near enough, by comparing the loudness of t

- See below; ** REPLY SEPARATOR ** That's the way I see it too. One takes a chance of burning one or both out, or overheating the relay contacts. Most use around a 25 watt resistor which is really too

- Lets see..... we got a step start, we got a soft start and we got a sort start. My amp project has a start/stop. What is a sort start? Is that when you "sort of" start or is it when you sort out whic

- If you use short step-start, you can protect the resistor with a slow-blow fuse. Normally the step-start will be too quick to blow the fuse, but if the relay ever fails to close, the fuse will blow i

- I also noticed that the Henry used a 10 ohm 50 watt resistor in the primary of the filament transformer on the 3cx3000a7 tube amps. No relays or anything else. This resistor was for a soft start and
