DESCRIPTION
The MASTR® II Site Equipment 12/24 Volt Power
Supply provides up to 429 watts to power a MASTR II 800
or 900 MHz site equipment receiver, system circuitry, and
transmitter. The nominal 12 volt output is actually 13.0 Vdc
and provides a maximum of 3 amperes to power the receiver and system circuitry. The nominal 24 volt output is
actually 26.0 Vdc and provides a maximum of 15 amperes
to power the transmitter power amplifier.
The 60 Hz Model (19A149979P1) operates from a
nominal 121 Vac, 60 Hz source. If a 208/220/240Vac, 60 Hz
source is used, an external step-down transforme r (sim ilar to
19C307148P1) must be used with the ’979P1 supply. The
50 Hz model (19A149979P2) provides the same output as
the ’979P 1 supply , but operates from a nomina l 23 0 Vac, 50
Hz source. The output vo ltag e will change a maximum of +
1.6% for each + 1.0% change in the input line frequency.
NOTE
A ferroresonant power supply is designed to work
specifically at a given frequency. The 60 Hz and 50
Hz supplies should be used at their nominal frequency ± 2 Hz.
The power supply’s step-down ferroresonant transformer provides excellent line voltage regulation. For the
rated input line voltage range ( ±20% for P1, ± 15% for P2),
the output vo ltage will not vary more than 2 %. A ferroresonant power supply provides inherently excelle nt l ine volt age
surge protection, and fewer parts for h igh reliability. No active se micond uctor de vices are use d which could re duce reliability.
The output voltages will vary depending on the load currents that the supply is being asked to source. As the load
current rises, the output voltage will drop. Typical output
voltages for various load currents are as follows:
The operation and servicing of the power supply are
completely accessible from the front. The ON/OFF switch
and all fuses are located on the front panel. The low profile
slot type fuse holders contai n t h e p ri m ar y fuse(s) F1 ( F 1 a nd
F4 for P2), the high current output fuse F2, and the low current output fuse F3. The primary fuse(s) protect the input
wiring to the ferroresonant transformer (one 10 amp fus e for
P1, two 5 amp fuses for P2). The output fuses F2 (20 amps)
and F3 (5 amps) prov i de ext e rnal overload prot ection.
The 60 Hz supply provides a courtesy dual AC receptacle. Th e primary line current fuse ( F1) also provides ov ercurrent protection for the dual receptacle. The 60 Hz supply
draws 5 amps under nominal conditions and 7 amps under
all conditions. Thus, the dual courtesy receptacles are rated
for 3 amps.
CIRCUIT ANALYSIS
In the 60 Hz power supply (’979P 1), the ON/OFF
switch (S1) provides line voltage to the power supply
through the primary line fuse F1. Line current fl ows throu gh
F1 to the courtesy receptacle prior to S1. This allows line
voltage to always be available at the receptacles. Current
then flows through the primary of stepdown transformer
(T1) via the 200°C thermal fuse. The thermal fuse would
only open in the unlikely event that an internal short would
develop in the transformer. The varistor (VR1- 150 V rating) provides addition input line voltage suppression.
In the 50 Hz power supply (’979P2), the ON/OFF
switch (S1) is a DPST type switching both primary AC
lines. In addition, both input lines have 5 amp fuses (F1 and
F4). The varistor (VR1-275 V rating) provides a ddition al input line voltage suppression. When power is applied, current flows through the primary of step-down transformer
(T1) via the 200°C thermal fuse. As in the 60 Hz model, the
thermal fuse would only open if the transformer devel ops an
internal short.
The step-down transformer (T1) is a ferroresonant type
which has inherently good input line voltage regulation.
This eliminates the need for additional high current regula-

tors. C9 serves as a resonating capacitor across the secondary taps of the transformer.
The transformer steps the input voltage down to approximately 28 Vac across two secondary windings. Each
winding drives two separate full wave bridge rectifiers consisting of D1A, B through D4A, B. The rectifiers are dual
diode packages and are mounted on heat sink HS 1. During
the first half of the period diodes D1B, D2A, D3B, and D4 A
are conducting and delivering current which is summed at
the input to the high current filter. During the second half of
the period diodes D1A, D2B, D3A, and D4 B are conduct ing
and also deliver ing current which is summed at the input to
the high curren t filter. The high current filter consists of C1C4, C7, L1, and R1. It is designed to reduce the output ripple to less than 100 mV p-p for any current load up to 15
amps. It also keeps transient responses greater than 22 volts
and less than 30 volts. Resistor R1 is a 30 ohm, 50 watt resistor that serves two functions. One, it acts as a bleeder resistor to discharge the capacitors when the supply is turned
off. Two, it provides a minimum current load to prevent the
output voltage from ever rising above 30 volts under any
load condition. The high current filte r s o ur ces up to 15 amps
through the 20 amp fuse F2 to the high current output port
F801A on the rear wall of the chassis. F801A-1 and F801A2 are A + and A-, respectively, and connect to the transmitter
power amplifier.
The two secondary windings are also center tapped to
produc e a step-down voltage of around 14 Vac which is also
fed to the two full wave bridge rectifiers. During the first
half of the period, diodes D2A and D4A provide a conduction path for current going to both the high current filter and
the low current filter. During the second half of the period,
diodes D1A and D3A provide the conduction path for current going to the high current filter and the low current filter. The low current filter consists of C5, C6, L2, and R2. It
is designed to reduce the output ripple to less than 100 mV
p-p for any current load up to 3 amps. It also keeps transient
responses greater than 11 volts and les s than 18 volts. Re si s tor R2 is a 100 ohm, 10 watt resistor that serves two functions. One, it acts as a bleeder resistor to discharge the
capacitors when t he supply is turned off. Two, it provides a
minimum current load to prevent the output voltage from
ever rising above 18 volts under any load condition. The
low current filter sources up to 3 amps through the 5 amp
fuse F3 to the low current output port J801 on the rear wall
of the chassis. J 801-1, 2, 3 and J 801-4,5,6 are A+ and A-,
respectively, and connect to the receiver and system circuitry.
neously). When receiving only (a 3 amp load out of J801)
the output voltage is less than 15.8 Vdc at J801 and less
than 29.0 VDC at F801A.
MAINTENANCE
For disassembly, remove 8 screws and lift off top cover.
Disassembly is required before working on the power supply. When replacing any component be certain to use an
identical component. Thermal joint compound is required
between diodes D1, D2, D3, and D4 and the heat si n k.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, disconnect power supply
from the AC input power source before removing or
replacing any co mp on ent or assembly.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING
The troubl e-shooting procedur e in Table 1 may be helpful in isolati ng a defective component or assembly in a malfunctioning power supply. When a component or assembly
is identified as defective, replace the defective component
with an identical component. Be sure to check associated
circuitry for any other damaged components before applying power to the unit.
ADJUSTMENTS
This power supply has no adjustments or controls other
than the ON/OFF switch.
INSTALLATION
The power supply is normally installed in an EIA 19
inch wide rack of a MII site equipment cabinet. It can also
be installed in a 19 inch wide stand alone ope n ra ck .
NOTE
Insure that ventilation holes in the unit are not obstructed when the unit is mounted or in operation.
The power supply is rated for a nominal 26.0 Vdc for a
15 amp load out of F801A and for a nominal 13.0 Vdc for a
3 amp load out of J801 (receiving and transmitting simulta-
