710/711 INTROLWCTION


SECTIONI - IN'J!ROIlJCTION
A. Models 710 and 7ll MilUvolt Discriminators
These Millivolt Discriminatorn are extremely stable, light-
modulator clc amplifiers operating a thyratron tube end reley.
They are identical except for the method of the trip level
adjustmenta.
Trip level of the 710 and 7l.l is variable from 0.2 to 10 milli-
volts. The range may be extended to 1000 volts with au internal
resistive divider, or to lo- ampere with a current shunt. Ad-
justment of the 710 is made with an external reference aad po-
tentiometer located behind the front panel. The 711 is adjusted
by means of a calibrated dial in the front panel. Dial setting
is accurate within 2200 uv .
The instnuncnts may be made either locking or non-locking.
They are chatter-free on non-locking and locking operation;
modification for locking action is easily made by adding a nor-
mally open switch.
Long term repeatability of the 710 and 711 is better than 200
micmvoltn, and the speed of response is between k~ end 60
milliseconds with a signal 5% larger than the trip level.
Standard units are wired to trip for signals exceeding the trip
point and are fail-safe in that failure of any component cause6
the alarm condition. On units wired to trip for a signal that
decreases below the trip point, the unit is not fail-safe if
a loss of reference signal occurs.
Careful shielding, filtering, and guarding permit floating oper-
atlon up to 500 volts above ground, with excellent rejection
to extraneous voltages. Input and output terminals are isolated
from each other and from ground.
Inmmnity to vibration and indefinite life under rigorous envimn-
mental conditions are assured by the use of premium subminiature
tubes and a Keithley designed photo-reeistive modulator having
no mating parts. Permissable overload is greater than 10,000
tines.

MODEL
710/7ll DESCRIPTION


SECTIONIII - DESCRIPTION

The Model 710 and 711 Millivolt Discriminators consist of a three
stage vacuum amplifier following a modulator and an input filter.
The output of the amplifier is synchronously demodulated and filtered
to provide a D.C. signal at the grid of a thyratron. The thyratron
controls a relay.
The input contains the D.C. to A.C. modulator, an input filter to
reject spurious AX. signals and the Trip Level reference set.
The modulator used in the Millivolt Discriminator employs two photo-
conductive cells, PD-101 and PD-102, which operate from the trans-
farmer secondary. This action is similar to a single-pole double-
throw mechanical chopper with the result that the D.C. input and
the D.C. reference are converted to an A.C. signal. With no signal
at the input of the amplifier either from the reference or the input,
the negative bias cuts off the thyratron and the relay drops out.
When a reference signal is fed to the amplifier, the negative bias
at the grid of the thyratron is cancelled and the thyratron fires
and energizes the relay. This ie the normal condition of operation,
that is with the relay energized. Operating in this manner the Model
710 and "(11 will indicate an alarm condition in the event of any
tube failure in the unit or from the loss of this reference signal
by any other means. The transistor, Cl protects against loss of
bias on the thyratron. If bias is lost, the transistor opens the
cathode circuit of V3 and gives the alarm condition. The modulator
compares the input signalto the signal set by the Trip Level. If
the input signal is less than the level set by the Trip Level pot.,
the D.C. voltage to the thyratron grid keeps the thyratron on. If
the input signal exceeds the reference signal the tbyratron extinguishes
and indicates the alarm condition by means of a red light on the
front panel.
Spurious AX. signals are prevented from entering the input by means
of a "twin-tee" filter consisting of R-102 through R-106 and C-101
through C-103 which is tuned to line frequency. X-104 and R-106
are set at the factory for maximumrejection to line frequency.
The demodulator circuit employs a four-diode bridge with silicon
diodes. A balanced configuration is used so that careful balance
of the transformer secondary is not necessary. The demodulator is
driven synchronously with the neon lamps which switch the input mod-
ulator . The demodulator output is a pulsating DC. signal which
is filtered and fed to the grid of the thyratron.
The basic sensitivity of the instrument is 10 millivolts, however,
reduced sensitivity may be obtained by the use of a divider.
The output is obtained as a D.P.D.T. set of contacts from a relay
which is used for control.

710/7ll OPERATION


SECTIONIV - OPERATION

A. INPUT CONNECTIONSThe Model 710 and 71.1 will operate grounded
-
or floating. For grounded operation, one side of the signal source
should be grounded.
B. OPERATION The power is turned on by plugging in the
- power
cord. Be sure that the instrument is wired for the proper line volt-
w3=. The Model 71.0 and 7l.l will operate satisfactorily on 50 or 60
cps. For method of changing from ll.5 to 230 volts consult schematic.
The trip point on the Model no is set by means of an &X%nal.
reference and a multi-turn wire wound potentiometer located
behindths frontpaslelandontheModel71lbymeans of a cal-
ibrated dial on the front panel. !cheFEIAromilightviu.go
on-when the limit is mceeded. No other operating adjustment
is necessary.
C. NON-J&CKINC OPERATION The instrument is normally supplied
-
for non-locking operation and the relay will re-close when the signal
drops about 200 microvolts below the trip point.
D. LOCKING OPERATION CONVERSION ICCKINU OPERATION On the
AND T3 -
output plug at the rear of the instrument, pins (I) and (J) are jump-
ered. if this jumper is raved, the unit will perform as a locking
relay. To reset, pins (I) and (J) must be ~mentarily shorted after
the signal has fallen below the set limit. Whenunits are supplied
as locking relays, a reset button, connected across pins (I) and (J),
is mounted on the front panel. Remote reset may be obtained by an
external control across the reset pins.
E. REVERSEFOL4RITYOPEEATIONIf it is desired to operate with
-
negative signals the input signal is merely reversed.
F. OUTPUT CONNECTIONSThe output is obtained as a DPDTset of
-
contacts from a relay. The rating of the relay is 5 amperes NON-
IhWCTIvE. If inductive loads or higher currents are to be switched,
the output should be followed by a second relay of high enough cur-
rent capacity.
