Auto Cut for Manual Stabilisers using 741 IC
Many circuits have been published about the auto-cut arrangement in manual stabilisers. These circuits generally use transistors with zener diodes as the only sensing device. However, these circuits have two main drawbacks. Spurious triggering of the transistor Fluctuation in zener diode Circuit Description of Auto cut for manual Stabilisers The circuit of auto cut for manual stabilisers described here overcomes spurious triggering of transistor and fluctuation in zener diode drawbacks. It uses the most versatile op-amp IC741 a schmitt trigger. The reference voltage is given by a combination of 4.6V,…

Multiple appliances have been born to ease human efforts. And in the same run, numerous protective circuits are designed to ensure a long lifespan of those devices. We have seen those circuits claiming to protect appliances like refrigerators and air-conditioners from voltage fluctuations and brown-outs. An overvoltage protection circuit has been presented here serving multi-purpose security; under-voltage protection, switch-on delay, and regulation. Description of Overvoltage Protection Circuit Do not get worried with the overvoltage protection circuit diagram, though it looks complex, the circuit comprises building blocks we have been familiar…
Read MoreVersatile Auto Cut -Off Unit
A versatile auto cut-off facility is necessary for all the mains operated equipment and voltage stabilizers (automatic as well as manual) to switch them off when the voltage shoots above or falls below a certain safe level. The cut-off facility available in most commercial stabilizers is so abrupt that they switch off the moment the voltage goes beyond a predetermined window (normally, 180V to 250V) and switch on immediately after the voltage fall within the calibrated range. Introduction to Versatile Auto Cut-Off Unit Power interruptions are quite frequent at times…
