(Use the prices shown only as a guide)
The original matrix is based on one roduced on the Arc Euro Trade site, but it has been updated with current information, and as CPC have dropped most of their heavier transformers ( since they are also supplied by the main Farnell division ), alternatives supplied byRapid have been included. If you find that any of the parts have been superceeded please send a correction as keeping track of these can take some time. All the listed parts are RoHS compliant which was the last time a full check was carried out.
Information on assembling a power supply will be provided later.

With the transformer output windings wired in parallel, the output voltage needs to be between 30V and 55V per winding and current rating should be 2x the motor current set on the controller. |
Bridge Rectifiers:
A suitable bridge rectifier would be 200V at 25A.
200v @ 25A 954-9382 £2.49 (Farnell)
200v @ 25A 395-4203 £2.79 (R.S.)
Smoothing Capacitors:
The smoothing capacitor(s) need to be approx 10,000µF or higher
and the voltage rating = (transformer output volts x S2) +10,
So, using a 25v transformer (25x1.414)+10 = 45.35v Min.
