1. Maintenance Platform Requirements

1. The constant temperature soldering iron is above 80W (the soldering temperature is 300-350°C). The pointed soldering iron tip is used for soldering small patches such as chip resistors and capacitors, and the knife-shaped soldering iron tip is used for the replacement of plug-in components (the soldering temperature is 380-

420ÿÿÿ

2. The hot air cylinder is used for chip disassembly and soldering. Be careful not to heat it for a long time to avoid foaming of the PCB (the soldering temperature is 260ÿ±2ÿ).

3. The AC controllable power supply device voltage regulator (output 200-250V, 0-20A current limit) is used for APW7 power-on inspection. Unconditionally, you can also connect a 100W ordinary light bulb to the AC live wire with commercial power. Note

Safe. Power analyzer; used for PF value and power calculation test after power supply maintenance.

4. Electronic load (power 2KW, meet voltage 0-50V), unconditional can also make resistance load matching with APW7.

5. Multimeter, sniffer gun, tweezers, electrostatic protection on the surface of maintenance table (conditional configurable oscilloscope).

6. Flux, lead-free tin wire, washing water and anhydrous alcohol; washing water is used to clean the flux residue and appearance after maintenance.

7. Thermal grease (2500) is used to repair the heat conduction between the MOS and the heat sink, and thermal silicone (704 silicone) is used to fix the damaged glue at the origin of the PCBA components after repair.

2. Requirements for maintenance work

1. Maintenance personnel must have certain electronic knowledge, more than one year of maintenance experience, have a certain understanding of the working principle of switching power supply, and master the welding technology.

2. Before the product is opened to repair the PCBA board, the large capacitor must be discharged. After measuring no voltage with a multimeter (the discharge is completed below 5V), the welding operation can be started! Pay attention to confirm to avoid electric shock.

3. Pay attention to the operation method when judging the circuit components. After replacing any components, the PCB board has no obvious deformation, and the soldering pads are reliable. Check the replacement parts and the surrounding parts for open circuit and short circuit problems.

4. After the replacement of the key components, the main circuit inspection and measurement have no short circuit and other obvious abnormalities, and then the AC voltage test can be carried out, otherwise there is a danger of blowing the machine.

5. When AC220V voltage is required to judge the circuit signal; pay attention to operation protection.

APW7 Power Supply Repair Guide

Test steps:

ÿ Visual inspection of the board. After ensuring that the board is free from soldering, continuous welding, electrolytic capacitor polarity, plug-in components are installed in place, and MOS tube insulation gaskets are all normal, connect the input line L/N of the board to the positive and negative output lines.

Pick it up.

(2) Turn on the AC input air switch, after all the multimeter readings are correct (the judgment conditions are in the above picture), set the electronic load current to 1A, and record the electronic load voltage at this time, the voltage value is 12.10-

12.50V is qualified.

(3) Input 220V, set the electronic load current to 150A, record and test the voltage, power and power factor of the AC side power meter, the power factor is greater than 0.99, the output voltage is normal, and the power is not less than

1800W is qualified.

Rotate the knob of the electronic load to increase the current by 2A/div. If the current protection point is 160-200A, the direct protection is qualified, and the protection value is recorded.

Set short-circuit protection, after power on again, the power supply can run normally.

ÿ Input 110V, set the electronic load current to 83.3A, record and test the voltage, power and power factor of the AC side power meter, the power factor is greater than 0.99, the output voltage is normal, and the power is not less than

1000W is qualified.

ÿ Turn off the AC switch and electronic load in turn, and remove the AC input line and DC output line. Note: The large electrolytic capacitor is charged before the fan stops, and you need to wait for the fan to stop completely before you can touch the pad

son.

Remarks: After repairing the power supply, if the above items do not have equipment conditions, you only need to test the input AC220V, output 12V and load 150A (1800W), and it can work normally and continuously, which is also considered qualified.

2.5 Simple judgment and maintenance of common faults in mine power supply

Numbering fault phenomenon reason Solution

1 Fan does not run, no 12V output The power supply on the AC side of the power supply is abnormal 1. Check whether the AC input cable of the power supply is normal and the plugs at both ends are not loose.

2. Check whether the grid has power and the voltage is normal.

2 The fan is running normally, no 12V output 1. Low grid voltage 1. Use a multimeter to confirm that the current voltage is above 205V, so as to ensure that the power supply is turned on.

2. Power protection 2. Detect whether the power supply has output short circuit or overload. This situation will cause the power supply to enter the lock-up protection state, which needs to be excluded.

After the fault, it can be restored by powering on again.

3 After the power supply stops outputting for a few seconds, it resumes The power supply has entered the over temperature protection 1. Check whether the fan is running normally

Works normally, and then resumes after a few minutes of continuous work 2. Check whether the cooling air duct of the power supply is blocked

Stop the output, and so on 3. Check whether the power supply has accumulated too much dust in the long-term use.

4. Check that the power used by the power supply or the ambient temperature exceeds the value of the power limit curve of the power supply.

4 output normal fan not running bad fan 1. Check whether the fan is blocked by debris

2. The fan is broken

5 The normally working power supply suddenly has no output, Overcurrent protection of the power supply Check whether the current of the load exceeds the upper limit of the overcurrent protection of the power supply instantaneously. The power supply sets the overcurrent protection to a locked state.

won't start again It is to prevent the power supply from continuing to output when the load is abnormal, resulting in dangerous situations such as fire.

2.6 After the power supply has been repaired and tested normally, it needs to be aged and run for 2 hours with a rated load of 80% (130A) or more before it can be used in the client.
