MODIFICATIONS FOR FM B.I. IN 25 KV RE AREA
IN RE AREA TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER (FM SIGNALS) CIRCUIT IS WORKED ON
A PAIR OF CONDUCTORS OF PET QUAD OF MAIN TELECOM CABLE AND THE
D.C. CIRCUIT WORKS ON TWO PHANTOMS DERIVED FROM THE PET QUAD
 
A BLOCK FILTER UNIT IS CONNECTED BETWEEN THE BLOCK INSTRUMENT
AND THE LINE. EXTERNAL RELAYS BNR1 AND BNPR1 ARE ALSO USED, AS IN
THE CASE OF NEAL’S TYPE TOKEN BLOCK INSTRUMENT, TO PREVENT
ENERGISATION OF THE LINE RELAYS DUE TO MOMENTARY DISCHARGE OF
CONDENSER IN THE FILTER UNIT. THE BLOCK TELEPHONE IS CONNECTED TO
THE OTHER PHYSICAL PAIR OF THE PET QUAD.

THE EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS TO SUITE RE ARE SHOWN IN FIGURE

75
 RDSO MODIFICATIONS:

RDSO HAS SUGGESTED THE FOLLOWING: VIDE THEIR LETTER.NO.

S.1 S/WS‑6 DT.2‑4‑91.

(a)                       REMOVAL OF CHOKE CH‑1:

CHOKE CH 1 IS PROVIDED (IN NON‑RE AREA) TO PREVENT FM SIGNAL

GETTING AFFECTED BY THE LOCAL BATTERY SINCE BOTH DC AND FM
SIGNALS ARE SUPERIMPOSED ON THE SAME PAIR OF LINE WIRES.

HOWEVER, IN RE AREA, SINCE A PHYSICAL PAIR IS USED FOR FM SIGNAL

AND A DERIVED PHANTOM IS USED FOR DC THE CHOKE CH1 DOES NOT SERVE
ANY PURPOSE. 'REMOVAL OF THE CHOKE WILL RESULT IN A REDUCTION OF
4 VOLTS IN THE POWER SUPPLY IN VIEW OF 100 MA CURRENT FLOWING
THROUGH THE CIRCUIT.

(b)                       REMOVAL OF RESISTANCE R2:

SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION RESISTANCE R2 (20 OHMS) MAY BE

DISPENSED WITH, SINCE THIS PROTECTION IS NOT REQUIRED
AND IS NOT, IN ANY CASE, PROVIDED IN OTHER BLOCK INSTRUMENTS.
THIS WILL MEAN, CONSEQUENTLY, A REDUCTION OF 2 VOLTS IN THE POWER 76
SUPPLY.
 C )                     ELIMINATION OF DIODES AND ‑ FILTER UNIT

IN THE EXISTING CIRCUIT, BOTH NR AND BLR ARE OF QBA1 TYPE, EACH
REQUIRING ABOUT 100M.A. CURRENT. THEY ARE CONNECTED IN PARALLEL
AND BLOCKING DIODES D1 AND D2 HAVE BEEN USED TO LIMIT THE CURRENT
TO 100 M A BY GIVING FEED TO ONLY ONE RELAY AT A TIME.

THESE DIODES REQUIRE USE OF FILTER UNITS, WHICH ARE OTHERWISE

NOT REQUIRED. IN ABSENCE OF FILTER UNIT THE INDUCED AC. VOLTAGE
MIGHT RESULT IN RECTIFIED DC VOLTAGE DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF THE
BLOCKING DIODES. THIS PROBLEM IS NOW SOUGHT TO BE ELIMINATED BY
THE USE OF AC IMMUNISED 1000 OHMS NEUTRAL RELAY INSTEAD OF QBA1
RELAY FOR BLR. HOWEVER RESULTS IN INCREASE OF LINE CURRENT FROM
100 MA TO 112 MA. IN SUCH CASE, FILTER UNIT CAN BE DISPENSED WITH,
RESULTING IN OVERALL REDUCTION IN THE POWER SUPPLY.

FILTER UNITS NOT REQUIRED TO LENGTH OF 28 KMS OF BLOCK

SECTION, PROVIDED PROPER PRECAUTION IS TAKEN FOR HUMAN SAFETY.

IMPLEMENTATION OF RECOMMENDATION ABOVE WILL RESULT IN TO

THE TOTAL REDUCTION OF THE LINE RESISTANCE TO 40 + ( 4X90) + 20 = 420
OHMS. KEEPING IN VIEW, 10 % EXTRA CURRENT NOW FLOWING IN THE LINE
ON ACCOUNT OF REMOVAL OF BLOCKING DIODES, THE OVERALL
77
REDUCTION IN THE WORKING VOLTAGE WILL BE ABOUT 35 V.

LOCKING SEGMENT.

  BETWEEN LOCKING PIECE AND THE UPPER EDGE OF THE LOCKING

                 

SEGMENT WHEN THE FORMER IS IN LOCKED CONDITION AND BETWEEN

THE LOCKING PIECE AND THE LOWER EDGE OF LOCKING SEGMENT WHEN
THE FORMER IS IN UNLOCKED CONDITION THERE SHALL BE A SLIGHT
CLEARANCE AND THERE SHALL BE NO POSSIBILITY OF THE LOCKING PIECE
BEING LIFTED UP.

  THE LOCK ARMATURE WORKS FREELY AND THE LOCKING PORTION IS

                     

PROPERLY FORCED DOWN FOR EACH LOCKING PORTION.

 THERE IS NO UNDUE TENDENCY FOR THE LOCK MAGNET TO BE HELD WHEN

ELECTRICALLY DE‑ENERGIZED.
  80
THE MAGNET COIL DOES NOT RETAIN ANY MAGNETISM.
 
SWITCHES S1 AND S2 SHOULD BE CHECKED REGULARLY. NUMBER
OF COUNTER OPERATES SERIALLY;
 
NUMBER IN EVERY CASE IS CLEAR AND VISIBLE.
 
CONNECTING ROD WITH SHUNT KEY AND BLOCK HANDLE ASSEMBLY
SHALL BE CHECKED FREQUENTLY.
 
THE MINIMUM LINE BATTERY VOLTAGE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED
AT 21.5 V.D C.
 
THE MINIMUM LINE BATTERY VOLTAGE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED
AND ENSURE OPERATING VOLTAGE AT THE OTHER INSTRUMENT
AT 21.5 V D.C.
 
THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE OF RECEIVER FOR OPERATING CR 1OR CR2
SHALL BE 19. 2 V MIN.
81
 TRANSMITTER - SOURCE VOLTAGE 24 V.DC OUTPUT
 
RECEIVER - SOURCE VOLTAGE 24 V.DC
INPUT VOLTAGE - 0.2 V TO 1.0 V (WITH VTVM).
 
TOLK ARMATURE SHOULD BE CHECKED FOR ITS PLACEMENT IN
THE CENTER CHANNEL PUTTING THE FINGER TIP AT THE EDGE OF
THE ARMATURE ON BOTH SIDES LIGHTLY TO CHEEK EASY PLAY AND
FULL OPERATION OF PARABOLIC INDICATOR.
 
WHEN THE INPUT VOLTAGE IS IN THE RANGE OF 0.2 V TO 1.0 V
(BY VTVM ) THE OUTPUT TERMINAL VOLTAGE SHOULD BE 19.2
VOLT MIN.
