Section V Paragraphs 5-74 to 5-76 5-74. The cause of excessive output ripple on any of the supplies can be isolated in the following manner. Measure the ripple at the output of the rectifiers of the supply in question. Compare the measurement with the value given on the schematic diagram, figu r e 5-33. If the ripple is excessive, check the input filter capacitors and bleeder resistors. If the input ripple is normal, the cause is most likelylow gain in the amplifier transistors.

Model 175A 5-75. Table 5-5 gives troubleshooting aids for locating causes of loss of regulation in each supply. 5-76. The balance between the +6.3 volt and -6.3volt supply outputs and ground is determined by the supply load. The load is a series-parallel arrangement of tube heaters, diagrammed in figure 5-34. An unbalanced output voltage can usually be traced to an open o r shorted tube heater o r a wrong type tube.
