1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Don't worry I attacked myself there too

 

Also I feel like it would be way easier to gut that thing entirely and design a new circuit using a 24v power supply if the solenoids use 24v to fire the coils. Should be able to dispense water/coffee that way. Just use a relay to turn on a 120v 60hz heating element taken out of a Mr. Coffee .

 

It would totally be easier, but I would be mad at myself if I didn’t at least try to get the OEM design to work.

 

It aint worth it dude imo. But I have way more fun designing new stuff then reengineering old stuff.

 

It’s weird because Pin 2 goes to a terminal block that grounds to the metal case, and Pin 10 goes to the circuit board.

 

That's because pin 2 is a neutral for the relay coil and pin 10 must receive it's power by something mandated in the circuit board

 

Being AC I suppose hot could go to 10 and neutral on 2. Not the way I do it or see it done most but whatever.

 

I think it's a WA thing haha stupid Boeing

It's how my boss has us wire every AC relay at my old ahop

 

What are you trying to accomplish? I have a lot of experience in automation, but not sure what your start and end game are with this, would help with my troubleshooting advice.

 

Make an airplane coffee maker work on the ground. Without the airplane.

 

It’s a coffee maker from a Boeing 767. I’m trying to make it run on household 120vAC 60hz. Jet engine stators produce 120vAC 400hz which is impossible to recreate outside of a jet engine.

 

Its possible. But itll be the most expensive cup of coffee youll ever drink.

 

Not impossible.



Just prohibitively expensive

 

Why does this thread attract all the controls techs?

 

Valid question

 

Dude. You’ve got issues

 

Correct

 

What no welcome Back? Wtf


I’ve joined you’re crew of banned
