Lincoln Electric LN-9 SVM127-A - Manual (Page 54)

POWER INPUT CIRCUITS
The 115VAC is applied (usually from the welding power
source) via the input connector and through the circuit
breaker and R1 resistor to the power board, the T2 trig-
ger transformer, and the T1 transformer.
The 24VAC developed at the T2 trigger transformer is
applied to the trigger board. There it is rectified and
regulated to 20VDC and used to operate the wire feed-
er trigger circuitry.
The 28VAC produced by the T1 transformer secondary
is applied to the power board. There it is rectified and
regulated to 15VDC. This 15VDC powers the electron-
ics on the power, control, and voltage boards. The
10VAC secondary voltage is rectified, regulated, and
utilized by the meter board.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LN-9 is a semiautomatic wire feeder that allows
the user to preset the arc voltage and wire feed speed.
The wire feed speed is internally monitored and regu- lated to the preset condition. When the LN-9 is cou-
pled to an appropriate Lincoln constant voltage power
source, the arc voltage is also regulated to match the
preset voltage.
