The B&K Model 650 service manual provides detailed instructions for setting up, operating, and troubleshooting the dynamic mutual conductance tube tester, including descriptions of the circuit components, voltage requirements, and calibration procedures. It explains how to adjust signal and bias controls, test for balance, and manage gas sensitivity and grid emission to ensure accurate readings under varying environmental conditions.
Manual Overview
The B&K Model 650 Dyna-Quik Tube Tester is a dynamic mutual conductance tube tester designed with a dual chassis system. It features a main panel that supplies all necessary voltages for testing tubes across 33 test sockets, and an auxiliary socket panel connected via a 20-contact connector. Troubleshooting involves checking open circuit voltages with a 20,000 ohm per volt meter, ensuring the primary voltage is 115 V AC. The tester operates as a balanced bridge circuit, utilizing matched resistors and a diode for accurate readings. Calibration involves adjusting the AC signal to 1.45 volts RMS and setting bias voltages using specified resistors. Balance is checked by connecting a resistor from terminal #10 to ground and adjusting sensitivity controls. The voltage-sensitive bridge provides automatic line voltage compensation, maintaining accuracy across a range of line voltages. Regular adjustments of the gas sensitivity control are necessary to account for environmental variations affecting grid emission tests.
Quick Issues Covered
- Diagnose power-up failures using schematic voltage measurements.
- Calibrate AC signal to 1.45V RMS at terminal #6.
- Trace circuits using numbered schematic for voltage troubleshooting.
