Section IV. LOAD MEASURING UNIT
8-15. Scope.
This section contains repair instructions for the load
measuring unit.
8-16. Removal.
See figure 8-1 and remove the load measuring unit (7) as
follows:
a. Unscrew electrical connector.
b. Remove screws (5) which secure load measuring unit
(7) bottom of relay table (52).
8-17. Disassembly,
NOTE
Tag all electrical leads removed during
disassembly for positive identification during
reassembly.
See figure 8-20 to disassemble the load measuring unit.
8-18. Testing.
a. Connect load measuring unit in test circuit as illus-
trated in figure 8-21.
b. With 120 volts on M3, no load on load bank (Rd), and 0
volts indicated on voltmeter (M1), voltmeter (M2) shall in-
dicate 0 to 0.4 Vdc. Resistor RI (17, fig. 8-20), internal to
load measuring unit, may be adjusted to obtain this
reading.
c. With load on Rd, and 5.6 volts ac indicated on Ml,
voltmeter M2 shall indicate 9.4 to 9.8 Vdc.
d. Select intermediate loads of Rd, and observe that the
—
voltage relationships indicated by Ml and M2 are identical
to the relationships indicated by the graph in figure 8-22.
Adjust R1 to obtain this relationship.
e. Replace a defective load measuring unit, if voltage
relationships do not match the graph.
8-19. Repair, Reassembly and Installation.
a. Repair. Replace load measuring unit that does not
meet testing requirements.
b. Reassembly. See figure 8-20 and reassemble the load
—
measuring unit.
c. Installation. See figure 8-1 and install the load meas-
uring unit (7) on relay table (52) with screws (5).
