| Subject: | 14 volt bus / voltage regulator? |
Andy,
I used a Collins PWC-150. It has two independent channels, either of which
will handle all of the Ray Allen servos. I put an "on-off-on" toggle swit
ch so that I had both a primary and a back up 14vdc output. Protect the c
ircuit with a circuit breaker, and you are all set. You can also use a Ki
ng KA-39, although if I remember correctly, it is only one channel. Either
unit is available on E-bay for around $100 or less. Most avionics shops a
re littered with these units.
On a side note, I just powered up my panel, everything works, no smoke, no
components changed color, and no thermal events!
Good Luck,
David Vorsas

Subject: AeroElectric-List: 14 volt bus / voltage regulator?
Looking for a voltage regulator recommendation:
I need a small 14 volt bus bar in order to service ray allen servos and may
be a couple other 14 volt devices. I will be running a 28 volt system and
would prefer to have a separate 14 volt bus. If anyone has any recommendat
ions, or tips on how to go about servicing disparate voltage components, I'
m much obliged --
Thank you,
Andy

ok, that sounds like the ticket =8B thank you. I found this part number afte
r
matching up the converter specs you gave me with DigiKey that should save
you a few bucks if you need this again in the future:
http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?WT.z_header=search_go&
l
ang=en&site=us&keywords=102-2273-ND&x &y=15
digikey part number: 102-2273-ND this is a smaller device and 12.5
amperage output.
Just wondering if you guys use an inline fuse with this type of device? Or
would you rather have a breaker available to the pilot just in case the
device ever has an issue in flight?
Thanks for the recommendation --
Andy
