This minuscule power failure alarm circuit is a power supply monitoring device that will set off a piezo speaker when the ac mains mains supply cuts off.
Power supply failure detector.
Will alarm for 72 hours straight with the supplied lithium battery.
The circuit also includes a standard on rechargeable 6f22 9 v battery bat in power supply and a low voltage slide switch s1 as the master power on off switch.
It is very helpful to indicate the loss of power supply to some power critical instruments such as a lifecare device installed in a hospital.
The present invention is characterized by being provided with.
A reference voltage storage unit 29 which in the off state of a power supply switch.
The front end of the design is a simple ac230v mains presence sensor built around one popular photocoupler pc817b oc1.
Then to check the system turn off the power supply and you will see buzzer start beeping as soon as you turn off the power.
Most of the power supply failure alarm circuits need a separate power supply for themselves.
A selectable snooze alarm feature will cause the alarm to come back every 30 minutes until power is restored.
After soldering the components as per circuit diagram connect the power supply and turn it on.
The only power failure device with plug detection.
If your plug becomes unplugged from the power fail alarm itself this is detected electrically and the alarm sounds.
It employs an electrolytic capacitor to store adequate charge to feed power to the alarm circuit which sounds an alarm for a reasonable duration when the mains supply fails.
