Hi everyone,
I could not find an answer by searching the archive, so I have to start a new thread (if this comes up regularly please be patient ).
I was wondering how hot the small Hammond chokes get at the rated current. Specifically the model 156R. Its a small open bracket, 1.5H 200mA choke. It will be used @ ~300Volt.
Has anyone used this one before?
I would like to put it in the chassis (not well ventilated) but I do not want to toast the other components in there.
If it gets "hand-warm" I wouldn't mind but if I can sizzle burgers on it I would rather use a beefier one.
If I understand the physics of a choke input power supply correctly the voltage is adjusted by "phase shifting", therefore there should not be too much dissipation loss in the choke?!?
Do I use the DC resistance to calculate that?
Sorry, for my ignorance but I always tried to avoid inductors (especially the math )
Thank you for any input.
Cheers,
Martin
