If you love radio engineering so much that you have made it your main and only job, then it is unprofitable for you to rewind transformers. The craft of manufacturing transformers is an unbearable routine for a creative person, a depressing routine.

Almost any transformer can be replaced by others of a similar design. Abundant experience of such replacements has been accumulated by telerepair practitioners.

Before replacing a failed transformer, you need to make sure that it has completely failed and, if possible, clarify the cause of the failure. It is also necessary to make sure that the circuits fed by the secondary windings of the transformer do not have short circuits, and the fuse current corresponds to the recommended one, etc.

Sometimes it is possible to repair a transformer by soldering a terminal that has burned out outside the winding. This happens quite often, since the conductor not involved in the working magnetic field is loaded more than the conductor in the winding itself.

If the transformer does not have a short circuit in the turns, and one of its secondary windings is cut off, then such a transformer can still be operated by switching the load to the surviving windings, for example, using TVK-70 (output personnel transformer) or TVK-110 with a blown winding 5-6 (Fig. 1). For galvanic isolation with such a replacement, a capacitor with a capacity of 0,047 ... 1 μF is used.

Transformers in repair practice

A break in the feedback winding in the TVS-110LA (output line transformer) can also be eliminated by switching its load to the surviving winding of line reverse motion damping. To do this, the quenching lead 1 is soldered from the TVS and the housing lead is soldered in its place, having unsoldered the latter from petal 2. The feedback wire is soldered from petal 3 to 2. Thus, the quenching wire is unused, which does not affect the operation of the TV.

It is advantageous to disassemble some burned-out transformers and assemble fully functional TS and TVS from the surviving parts. The high-voltage coil from TVS-AM rarely fails, and placed in TVS-110-LA "pulls" even a kinescope with a diagonal of 61 cm! As a rule, when the "twisted" TS-160 and TS-180 (TS-180-2) fail, only one of the two coils is burned out.

Professional repairmen have developed techniques for quickly replacing some transformers with others that are at hand or less scarce. When carrying out such work, it is convenient to use reference books, for example [1]. But in most cases, only schematic diagrams of TVs with transformers for interchange are at hand. I want to give practical advice on the interchangeability of transformers.

Workshops that accept TVs for scrap have accumulated a significant number of TC-180 transformers. These transformers are capable of replacing any other power transformer for unified tube TVs. For example, to replace transformers TS-180 (TS-180-2) with a TS-160 transformer, a contact strip from a burned-out TS-160 is strengthened with threads. The TS-180 pinout scan is shown in Fig.2.

Transformers in repair practice

The replacement of TDKS-9 or TVS-110P5 with a TVS transformer from a tube TV (TVS-110L) is described in [2].

After the "Great Depression of the 30s" of the past century, commercial structures of all countries took a course towards deunification and a decrease in maintainability. Our repairmen felt the echo of this event on themselves while repairing imported equipment. This is where without good interchangeability techniques there is simply nothing to do ...

It is very difficult to give complete information on all replacements of all imported transformers. I will give only a table of the most common replacements for TVS-110PTs-15 (18; 26) terminals of imported transformers in the RFT TV.

Transformers in repair practice

And what to do with transformers that can no longer be used without rewinding? Do not throw them in the trash ... It is better to collect unusable transformers in a box and, if you find a specialist in rewinding, then give it to him. Such disposal will free the workshop from unnecessary trash and give the rewinder raw materials to work with.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Fuel batteries - capacity tripled 21.10.2005

Fujitsu Laboratories, in collaboration with NTT DoCoMo, has developed a high-capacity fuel cell prototype as well as a prototype methanol-powered external mobile phone charger.

In both cases, methanol of a higher concentration is used - over 99%, instead of the previously used 30%. This allows you to charge the batteries of three mobile phones with a consumption of only 18 ml. methanol.

In theory, fuel microbatteries with the same occupied volume are ten times more efficient than typical lithium ion batteries and three times more efficient than the stored energy density. In addition, methanol can be obtained from biological waste, which makes it possible to reduce environmental pollution along the way.

According to Fujitsu, a single fuel microcell using high concentration methanol can produce 1 watt of power.
