  • Page 6: Introduction

    Chapter 1 Introduction Power Amplifier Type 2732 has been especially designed to drive Modal Exciter Type 4824 but can be used with any vibration or modal exciter requiring a 120 VA power amplifier. The rated AC output is 120 VA into a 4 Ω exciter or resistive load. The power amplifier has a usable frequency range from 40 Hz to 15 kHz (full capacity) or DC to 150 kHz (reduced capacity).

    >10 k Ω. If DC Static Centering Unit Type 1056 (optional) is used, the output from Type 1056 – using a BNC to BNC cable – must be connected to the Signal Input DC socket of Type 2732. Signal Input AC: BNC socket providing a capacitive-coupled input to the amplifier.
  • Page 10 CHAPTER 2 Controls Current Monitor: BNC socket providing output of the amplifier output waveform (including DC component) for display on an oscilloscope. The monitor signal is the amplifier output current as 0.1 V/A.

    Mains Voltage Setting Type 2732 can be powered from a 100 V, 120 V or 230 V ± 10% (50 – 60 Hz), single-phase AC mains supply. To select the correct mains voltage setting, use a small screwdriver to remove the...
  • Page 14: Operating Procedure

    CHAPTER 3 Operation Mains Socket Connection Once the mains voltage setting and fuse are correct, use the power cable provided to connect the mains to the mains input socket of the amplifier. Note that for maximum operating safety, the protective (green/yellow) conductor of the cable should be connected to a suitable earth, such as the earth contact of a mains outlet socket.

    Power Amplifier Type 2732 – User Manual Warning Lamps and Fault Detection If one of the red warning lamps lights, a fault has occurred in the system. Under such circum- stances, the test is automatically stopped to protect the amplifier and exciter. To help establish the cause of the shut-down, some probable faults are given in Table 3.1.

    Characteristics Signal Inputs The signal inputs of Type 2732 have a minimum input impedance of 10 kΩ. The AC signal input is for connecting an exciter controller or generator and is capacitive coupled giving a ±0.5 dB lower limiting frequency of approximately 15 Hz. The DC signal input is direct coupled enabling a DC offset voltage to be applied for centering the exciter armature.
  • Page 17 100k Frequency (Hz) 010219 The power output of Type 2732 is direct coupled. Its output impedance, shown in Fig.4.1, depends on the feedback setting selected using the V/C Mode switch. Fig.4.2 Maximum output current rating of Type 2732 as a function of frequency Maximum current 5.5A...

    010217 Distortion The percentage of harmonic distortion produced by Type 2732 is shown in Fig.4.4. Considering the 120 VA power output rating of the amplifier, the amount of distortion is very low. This can be attributed to the generous amount of feedback applied and the use of a direct-coupled input.
