DRSSTC Musical Tesla Coil Reference Design 3.0 Package

(The EBAY listing photo shows a sample finished system of the actual Ref Design 3.0 operating from standard 230VAC 50/60Hz.  Note:  You are bidding on the paper design package for this particular Tesla Coil.  No parts or components are included with this item.)

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Please read this before ordering this item.  This is a Reference Design package that includes only paper plans for this high power musical Tesla Coil.  This listing does not include any parts or components.

You are bidding on a commercial grade high power DRSSTC reference design package.  This design package includes all electrical documentation required to design and build a high power DRSSTC Tesla Coil system, using the latest state of the art components,  capable of producing output arcs in excess of 12 feet!  This package includes schematics, parts lists, grounding diagrams, heatsink layouts, primary and secondary detail drawings, magnetics designs, and more.  Our engineers have worked more than 2 years to design and document a highly efficient DRSSTC system capable of producing the longest arcs.  This system is our recommended system for permanent museum and commercial / university installations.

Modern day DRSSTC design is generally a highly guarded secret among the Tesla Coil community.  You will be pressed to find any detailed schematics or design information ANYWHERE on the internet for these high power DRSSTC coils.  Now is your chance to finally own a fully documented high power DRSSTC design that you can use to build a highly efficient and reliable DRSSTC system.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Please note that this is not an entry level amateur design.  This is a professional-level design which was originally targeted for university and commercial users and thus is designed with high reliability components and design features and details that would only be seen in commercial quality electrical designs.

All documentation printed on drafting quality B-size (11 x 17") sheets.

Specifications:

• Operates from 230VAC 50/60Hz (minimum operating voltage is 115VAC with decreased performance)
• Output arc length 12-15 feet depending on specific build and operational conditions
• Switching circuit uses readily available CM600 IGBTs
• All components specified are common parts available from a wide array of sources
• All components, PCB boards, and  magnetics are also available through Eastern Voltage Research including completed assemblies
• Musical playback ready - Requires the use of a MIDI based interrupter
• Fiber optic interrupter connections provide noise immunity
• Inrush current limiting circuitry - Eliminates the needs for variacs and other pre-charge input voltage sources.

Includes:

• Top level DRSSTC schematic
• Top level DRSSTC design notes
• Top level DRSSTC parts list
• IGBT heatsink mechanical layout (Two options:  easy layout and low inductance layout)
• Grounding diagram
• Primary capacitor assembly schematic and parts list
• IGBT gate drive board assembly schematic and parts list
• Inrush limiting circuit and schematic
• Basic interrupter schematic and parts list
• Primary coil design, assembly drawings, and parts list
• Secondary coil design, assembly drawings, and parts list
• Current transformer design, schematic, and parts list
• Feedback transformer design, schematic, and parts list
• Gate transformer design, schematic, and parts list
• Crowbar and Bleeder safety circuit schematics and parts list
• DXF mechanical models available for various components for your own machining purposes.

Note: Design requires the use of the Eastern Voltage Research universal DRSSTC controller or third party generic driver.
