General Mach Discussion / switch mode power supplies in series?

« on: February 02, 2013, 01:43:13 AM »

switch mode power supplies in series? can it be done? I remember being told that it could be if the psu had a pin to connect them which matched the frequencies? not sure ,i have got a box full of 24v 2amp smps that I would like to use though, and being able to link them for more amps or volts would be handy.

there are belleville washers and then there are disc springs which are the Items that you should use, On vehicle leaf springs its advisable not to grease between the leaves as it attracts grit and forms a grinding paste,or so ive been told! probably a good thing in our application to lubricate though!

Well thats nice but OTT, compared to my method,plus Ive a few of my cylinders that I can just add to increase the power.
As far as Bellvilles are concerned Ive used thinner than usual washers and put them in ,in sets of 3 back to back my thinking being that they will be more supple,abit like a leaf spring,seems to work
