    PLEASE USE HIGH VOLTAGE SAFETY at all times. Not knowing your safety can incur injury. Now, lets be honest. Every High Voltage scientist needs their power supply. You guys asked for it, so we're doing it! Today we'll show you an extremely simple build that outputs over 10,000 volts AC, from a non-rectified transformer, at a relatively safe current. These transformers, from ionic cleaners, are some of the few without internal diodes. Also - Cheers to Bogdan!

It says "input 120 vac 50-60 hertz, output 7kv dc negative." theoretically that would contain a transformer and diodes, but it could have some sort of electronic circuit. The whole air filter works anyway, so would it be worth trying to recover a transformer, or should I just use the whole thing like it's supposed to be used? and should I buy the transformer off amazon, or find/ try to make my own? sorry for a lot of questions, but I want to make sure I don't blow up my parent's basement...

    I guess that generates lots of negative ions as well? If you don’t know about those, you should look into it... The benefits are amazing. They literally make you feel better. Generated in nature by lightning and waterfalls, they are the “fresh” in fresh air. They bond with smoke, dust, and pollen causing them to stick together and they just fall out of the air to the floor.

    • @FredtheDorfDorfman1985
      @FredtheDorfDorfman1985 5 років тому

      Yes negative ion generators tend to use flybacks that feed AC into Cockroft-Walton voltage multiplier cascades with negative output that is fed to a set of needles that discharge negative ion corona into the air and a fan blows air through that carries the ions out into the room. Ionic breeze machines like this one use plates charged with the negative high voltage, and electrode wires on the upwind side of the plates with the positive charge to electrically charge and move the air, like a high voltage lifter does, and air pollutants like pollen, mold spores, dust, dust mite feces, animal dander, etc cling to the plates and can be wiped off and discarded. They clean the air electrically and disperse negative ions to improve the air quality.

    Isn't air breakdown voltage more that 10kV/cm? AFAIK it ranges between 10 and 30 depending on electrode sharpness and, if that's a 1" gap, it should be at least 25kV, shouldn't it?

    • @PlasmaChannel
      @PlasmaChannel  7 років тому +14

      battlekruiser great question. Air's dielectric breakdown is 30kv/cm between two 1" brass spheres. This is the electrical standard at STP. However, when you have sharp points, the electric field gradients are much more intense and longer sparks are achieved with lower voltages. The two high voltage leads are very sharp. This transformer indeed outputs approximately 10,000 v. If I attached it to two rounded spheres, the spark length is approximately 4mm

    • @FredtheDorfDorfman1985
      @FredtheDorfDorfman1985 5 років тому

      Fluorescent ballasts tend to drive flybacks much harder than they are in a CRT TV, if that's where your's came from. A TV flyback is driven with a square wave at rectified mains voltage by the horizontal output transistor, but the deflection yoke causes the current through the flyback primary to ramp as a sawtooth waveform. The air gap between the two post halves of the ferrite core, inside the coils of the flyback, causes the flyback to store some energy like a capacitor during the primary current ramp up, no secondary current flows because of the built in rectifier diodes, and then it discharges that energy in the DC pulse created when the sawtooth ramp drops off. When driving a flyback with an electronic ballast the output V of the ballast is usually much higher than rectified mains. The electronic ballast uses a resonant LC circuit to drive higher voltages and current through a fluorescent lamp tube at a high frequency of around 25 KHz and voltages of between 300 and 600 volts. Most TV flybacks are resonant at around 15 KHz, it's not too far off from the flyback's resonant frequency to matter. The higher voltage and current of the ballast drives the flyback harder than the horizontal output transistor drive circuit in the TV. I have a large DC flyback that I had to put in a plastic jar with the inputs and outputs connected to terminals through the wall of the jar with sealer around them, and filled it with mineral oil because my 55 watt ballast was driving it so hard the pins on the bottom of the flyback were arcing like crazy, and the high voltage was arcing through the thick red insulation on the positive output wire. Once the oil stopped the wasteful, energy robbing pin arcing, and losses through the insulation, I got an impressive output that I use high quality auto ignition cables to carry the HV to a load. I can power a small Tesla Coil with it. It's output current is comperable to a low end neon sign transformer, probably 10 mA or more, but at the high frequency so it is less sensitive to RF from the TC primary, though I still use chokes and safety gaps to protect it.

    Hello... Quick question.... You got the flyback from an air purifier (which doesn`t have diodes at the end so the output is AC) .... Could you use 1 that has diodes at the end... And how dangerous are these things(Is the AC or DC one more dangerous?)

    That's cool... in the old days we'd have found a flyback transformer out of a CRT device... but in this day and age of flat screens, they're getting rare. Good call on finding an ioniser, although they're not really THAT common on this side of The Atlantic.
    Although a bit more explanation of WHY we're using these components and how they work would be much more helpful.

    • @PlasmaChannel
      @PlasmaChannel  3 роки тому

      If you just plug the transformer into the wall, it will blow up immediately. Too much power being provided. The driver limits power and also switches the power on and off incredibly fast. That fast on-off-on is what drives the flyback.

    • @Slowly_Going_Mad
      @Slowly_Going_Mad 2 місяці тому +1

      That is in fact a flyback transformer. Your on the right track. A lot of them will be very similar even if used in totally unrelated appliances. CRT TVs, air purifiers, plasma globes. A miniature one can be found in CFL bulbs, CFL back lights for computers, and on the smallest end arc lighters which are a recent development. The bigger ones can obviously handle more voltage and power in general so I'd stick with those. Also an old school ignition coil for a car is basically a massive flyback without the diode but I'd stick with the mid range ones that can be soldered on a board.

  • @mernokallat645

    There is the TV flybacks, the AC stuff, mains frequency, high frequency, the safe and the deadly.

    • @PlasmaChannel
      @PlasmaChannel  6 років тому +1

      Ah, so that is a modern flyback which only outputs DC, as they have internal diodes. Those pins tend to be unique to each transformer. You have to experiment with placing your power wires on combinations of two... until you get a high voltage out of the big red high voltage wire.

    It’s easier to use a fluorescent ballast (the driver) that has the two yellow wires. There’s no guess work involved. Just connect one of the yellow wires to one pin on the primary and the matching color, (depending on which side you use) which is red or blue, to the other pin. Easy as that. Just saying!

      @PlasmaChannel  6 років тому

      unfortunately those ebay 400kv transfrmers are not actually 400kv. Its all marketing....big voltages in the name sell more. They actually run 20kv-60kv. Which is still very impressive. That being said, these commercially made transformers are very efficient. It is hard to beat factory-created transformers

    • @FredtheDorfDorfman1985
      @FredtheDorfDorfman1985 5 років тому

      If I understand your question, heaters, and electric ranges/ovens with resistive tungsten nickel heating elements use rheostats to control their heating elements which are high wattage variable resistors, similar to potentiometers, that have a circular strip of resistive material that a sliding "wiper" contact slides across as you turn the knob. One end of the resistive strip is connected to the AC mains power supply and the wiper is off of that end when in the off position. As you turn it on the wiper contacts the strip at the supply which is high, then as you continue to turn it the distance of resistive strip material between the wiper contact and the supply gets greater which reduces the current flow through increasing resistance which varies the temperature through medium high, medium, medium low, and low. Unless it is a rheostat that starts at low in which the wiper contact is off of the other end when off, then starts at low and goes higher as it is turned until it reaches the supply contact point at high. The voltage to the heating element doesn't really go down a lot because the method of heat control is current control. The less current through the resistive heating element, the less energy from the current is transformed into heat. The fluorescent ballast here does not supply the current needed to power a heating element. In the US, heating elements like in heaters use high current from 2-15 amps at 120 volts, and heating elements on ranges and in ovens, laundry dryers, and electric water heaters usually use the higher wattage 240 volts because it is more efficient and can supply up to 30 amps at a couple of thousand watts. The output of a fluorescent ballast is not variable, except for units designed for dimming, but none of them really put out enough current to power a heating element. And a flyback transformer, like this one, driven by a fluorescent ballast only puts out a few milliamps, not the many amps and watts a heating element needs. So to sumerize, the name of the game with heating element control is current control.
      Hope this helps.

On the other end there are 2 pink/red wires and 2 blue wires. Do you have any idea how to figure out which wires I should connect to the transformer? I found the pins on the transformer I just can't seem to find the right combination of the 6 wires.
