PJ10KPS-CA 1. Introduction This manual describes the PJ10KPS-CA, a solid-state RF amplifier designed for frequency modulation sound broadcasting, manufactured by R.V.R. Elettronica S.p.A..A control system for the exciters is built into the machine so that in order to have a system with redundant exci- ters, all that needs to be done is to include two exciters in the transmitter such as, for exam- ple, the PTX30LCD exciters made by R.V.R.
Very often installing errors are discovered by dealers. If your dealer cannot help you, contact R.V.R. Elettronica and explain the problem. If it is decided to return the unit to the factory, R.V.R. Elettronica will mail you a regular authori- zation with all the necessary instructions to send back the goods.

MOSFET as active components in the FM amplifying modules. This chapter briefly describes the machine’s main features. Composition The PJ10KPS-CA transmitter is made up of modules inserted in a 19” rack. The main appara- tuses are: • 5 RF amplifier modules at 2.2 kW nominal •...
PJ10KPS-CA The amplifier is supplied complete with all its parts, not really "modules", essential for its operation such as the fans for dissipating the heat generated by the machine inside the room and all the accessories for the electrical and RF wiring. As a rule, the amplifier is supplied as a complete transmitter therefore the two FM exciters that it manages will be provided and connected (a service exciter and a spare exciter).
220 V RS485 Figure 4-1 Block diagram of PJ10KPS-CA The RF signals generated by two exciters (in the redundant configuration) are first attenuated by 6 dB to improve the uncoupling among the stages and then connected to a coaxial relay commanded by the control unit.
Page 16
PJ10KPS-CA The system contains five RF sub-amplifier modules each of which is capable of supplying a maximum of 2.2 kW RF. Each RF sub-amplifier module incorporate a PFC (Power Factor Corrector) power supply that provides the utmost power efficiency for enhanced energy savings and environmental protection.

Between the services, are included the microcontroller cards of RF modules, those of the combiner and power supply and the control unit. Supplying the services of the PJ10KPS-CA with an UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply), the machine also in case of absence of mains power can be managed, naturally limitedly to the functions available (for example configuration or interrogation of the alarms registry).

PJ10KPS-CA GSM Telemetry R.V.R. Elettronica’s plug-in series transmitters, may be optionally fitted with the telemetry device that enables the user to remotely check all the machine’s working parameters and control some of them, and provides the transmitter with the ability to trigger “alarms” when problems arise while the transmitter is on air, possibly sending GSM Short Messages (SMS) to the maintainer’s cellular phone or to any other number stored in the machine’s memory.

PJ10KPS-CA Installation and use This chapter contains the basic instructions for installing and using the PJ10KPS-CA ampli- fier. If necessary, more in-depth information about the operating principles may be traced in the next chapters. Assembly For practical reasons and for transport safety, the machine is usually supplied disas-sembled to the customer.
Page 207
PJ10KPS-CA 3 Insert the first amplifying module into the RF modules compartment [Figure 5-2]. Figure 5.2 The modules have a groove at the top and one at the bottom: insert the modules so that the guides in the compartment fit into these grooves. Slide the module until the two fixing screws fit into their seats.
It is reccomended not to turn on the machine without first have connected the RF exit to the antenna or to the dummy load! The PJ10KPS-CA requires a three power supply 3F (black, brown and grey) + N (blue) + GND (green yellow) able to give 50A for phase. Keep this requirement in mind in connecting to the personal distribution board.
The current exciter is activated (the interlock is released from the exciter) and its power emission is enabled. The power emitted by the PJ10KPS-CA amplifier increases gradually until it attains the level that had been set previously as “Reduced power”. Check the emitted power...

PJ10KPS-CA Figure 5-7 Figure 5-8 On having accessed the Settings menu, use the arrow keys to select the nominal power line (Pwr. Out) and click OK. Use the arrow keys to decrease or increase the indicated percentage value up to the required level. Click OK again to set this value.
In order to enable it, click the EXCITER CHANGEOVER button and check that the LED turns off. In function of the state of the PJ10KPS-CA automatism, the behavior of the machine will be various. In this chapter are described the different cases.
If the mains signal is not OK, the exciters turn off automatically. If the piloting power exceeds the limit during operations, the PJ10KPS-CA is set to the FAULT status and the power supply of the exciters is turned off. A message in the alarms menu signals the fault.
8.6.5 Start-up with exciters in automatic mode The sequence run by the PJ10KPS-CA, when the power supply is activated while it is already in ON status and the exciters are in automatic mode, is identical to the one run for switching from OFF to ON. The only difference is that a screenful displays the countdown for determining the fault of the exciters.
The associated information is communicated to the control unit for displaying and storing the events and for the centralized management of the events that require it. Certain LEDs of the PJ10KPS-CA panel are dedicated to the management of the alarms: Description...
