TM5-6115-593-34NAVFAC P-8-631-34TO-35C2-3-463-25-8. SYNCHROSCOPE.a. Inspection. Inspect the synchroscope (114, figure5-1) for loose electrical connections and damaged orscratched glass.b. Testing.(1)Connect the synchroscope as shown in figure5-17 test setup. Frequency generators usedshould be capable of providing minimum 50volts, maximum 240 volts. Frequency 0 to 60Hz. For testing the pull-in frequency is 48 Hz,the drop-out frequency is 47 Hz.(2)The synchroscope axial polarizing coils areenergized from the 'incoming' frequency,while the radial field coils are connected to the'running' circuit. If there is no differencebetween the two circuits either in phase angleor frequency, the pointer will remainmotionless at the 12 o'clock position on thedial. With no frequency difference, any phaseangle difference will cause the pointer to takeup a position away from this point. If,however, there is a difference in frequency,this phase relationship will be constantlychanging and the pointer will consequentlyrotate continuously in one direction or theother at a speed corresponding to thedifference in frequency. If incoming' is at ahigher speed than the 'running', the pointerrotates clockwise, and counterclockwise if itsspeed is lower.(3)When the lamps turn off together, the twosources are synchronized. When the'incoming' frequency has been adjusted toequal that of the 'running' frequency, thepointer will come to rest at a point on thescale depending on the phase displacement ofthe two voltages. The speed of the 'incoming'must then be inched up or down until thepointer takes a steady position at 12 o'clock.c.Replacement. To remove the synchroscope fromthe generator panel, tag and disconnect wires, andremove attaching hardware. Replace in generatorpanel with attaching hardware and reconnectwires. Remove tags from wires.5-9. RESISTOR AND DIODES. Resistor (26, figure 5-1, sheet 1) and diodes (25) are all mounted on terminalboards (24) on the rear wall of the enclosure. They areremoved by unscrewing them from their terminals onterminal boards.a.Test resistor (26) by measuring with anohmmeter. It should be 39,000 ohms ±5percent.b.Test diodes as follows:(1)Disconnect one end of the diode.(2)Connect an ohmmeter (scale. set Rx100)across the diode, note the reading. Nowreverse ohmmeter leads to the diode, andagain note reading. A good diode will readhigh resistance one way and low resistancethe other way. A shorted diode will read fullscale both ways. An open diode will readinfinity (no reading) in either direction. Checkall diodes and replace disconnected leads.5-10. DIGITAL CLOCK.a.Testing.(1)Connect clock in test setup shown in figure5-18.(2)Close switch S1 to test 605-22
