====== Power Supply / Speaker Model 962 ====== {{962.jpg?150|}} ===== Description ===== The Model 962 Power Supply is designed to power the TEN-TEC Models [[560]]/[[561]]/[[563]]/[[564]] and [[585]] transceivers. The supply delivers 20 amps at 13.5 Vdc from a 115/230 Vac 50/60 Hz source. Circuit features include an electronic over-current sensor which shuts off the output if the current demand exceeds 22 amps. The over-current shut down condition is reset by cycling the POWER switch from ON to OFF and back to ON. The output voltage is available through a 4 x 14 guage 3 foot cable and connector. The cable carries +13.5 Vdc, ground and the "hot" side of the AC primary and mates directly to the POWER jack on the [[560]]/[[561]]/[[563]]/[[564]] and [[585]] transceivers with a [[80572|4 pin AMP MATE-N-LOC]] connector. Two RCA phono jacks on the back of the supply also provide +13.5 Vdc for low current (2 or 3 amps) auxiliary applications. {{962_schematic.pdf | 962 Power Supply Schematic from WB4JTR}} From WB4JTR - In the 962, the regulator pass element was moved to the negative side of the bridge so that the collectors of the power transistors could be grounded -- eliminating the requirement for the mica insulators and protective plastic covers. ===== Specifications ===== ***Input Voltage:** 105 - 125 Vac or 210 - 250 Vac, 50-60 Hz. ***Output Voltage:** 13.8 Vdc, internally adjustable from 11.5 to 15.0 Vdc. ***Output Current:** 20 Amps full load, 22 Amps maximum for 5 minutes. ***Current Limiting:** Electronically disables output. Factory set threshold at 22 Amps. ***Regulation:** -3% at output connector for no load to 20 Amps full load. ***Ripple:** 20 mV peak to peak at 20 Amps. ***Speaker Impedance:** 8 ohms ===== Difference Between Models 961 and 962 ===== __From a post on the Ten-Tec Reflector:__ "they regulate the neg (-) line in the 962, where they regulated the pos (+) line in the older [[961]]."
