1.1            INTRODUCTION
This manual contains operation and maintenance data on the 1800 watt units                of
the DCR-B series Sorensen Power Supplies.        It is intended     to familiarize      the
user with the functioning   of the unit, to introduce     the varied applications         to
which the unit may be adapted, and to furnish       sufficient  maintenance data          to
assure long operating life.

Six major sections form the manual divisions.     Section 1 contains a brief functional
description    of the DCR-B series power supplies.      Initial inspection and checkout
procedures     are outlined in section 2. Operating instructions,       including    methods
for adapting units to various applications,   comprise section 3. Sections 4 and 5
provide     the principles  of operation  and maintenance       procedures     respectively.
System drawings and the replacement parts list are provided in section 6.

1.2            DESCRIPTION

1.2.1          General

Designed for either bench or rack use, the typical        DCR-B power supply pro-
vides a highly     regulated, precise dc output,    adjustable  over a wide range.
It operates from a nominal 115 Vat (208/220/230 Vat inputs are available as op-
tions) and exhibits a rapid response to transients,   both load and line.

DCR-B series supplies are phase controlled        type with SCR's (Silicon Controlled
Rectifiers)     or Triacs at the input to the transformer,  followed by a passive LC
filter.     This design allows for a wide range of output voltages,       simplicity    of
design, and offers large amounts of regulated power at relatively     high efficiencies
compared to linear regulators.
Silicon type semiconductors         are used extensively  in DCR-B circuitry,   and con-
tribute   significantly     to the units' wide ambient temperature  range characteristic.
Low dissipation        transistors  and diodes are located on a single printed      circuit
board while high dissipation          devices are heat sinked to aluminum brackets and
heat sinks.

All controls used during normal operation,  except the OVP control, are mounted
on the front panel.    These include a power circuit breaker, FINE and COARSE
VOLTAGE adjust potentiometers,     and FINE and COARSE CURRENT adjust poten-
tiometers.   The system output is taken across a terminal pair at rear terminal
strip TB2.

A variety of Sorensen power supply application notes are available          through your
Sorensen Service Representative.    These notes detail many hook-up         configurations
and special usages available to meet most power supply applications.
1.2.2          Automatic   Crossover

There are two basic operating modes, voltage and current.           In the voltage mode,
the voltage is held constant while the current varies with        the load.   In the cur-
