DC WELDING OUTPUT
When the polarity switch is placed in either DC position, the
AC voltage from the main transformer secondary is applied
to the SCR bridge. The SCR bridge and choke circuits are
connected in the conventional full wave bridge and filter
configuration, resulting in a controlled DC output. Since
the choke is in series with the negative leg of the bridge
and also in series with the welding load, a filtered DC is
applied to the output terminals. The bypass board pro-
tects the internal circuitry from interference.
When the machine is in the DC mode, the background cir-
cuitry provides an added boost of voltage to the output
terminals. This circuitry is controlled by the control board.
