FUNCTION

The mains voltage is connected to the diode bridge (3) via a RFI-filter (1) and the main contactor (2). The mains voltage is rectified and smoothed by a filter (4) and is then connected to the transistor switch (5). The transistor switch converts the DC-voltage into high frequency pulses which are applied to the main transformer (6).
The transformer provides isolation from the mains and transforms the voltage to the rated output level.
The secondary voltage/current is rectified through the diode bridge (7) and smoothed through the the LC-filter (8). The control unit (10), which is supplied by the control transformer (9), monitors actual DC-current by means of the shunt (11), actual DC-voltage, and controls the transistor switch (5) until set and actual values correspond.
