Textbook Question
Chapter 21, Problem 1SA
What is the purpose of an IVR?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The purpose of the IVR.
Answer to Problem 1SA
The two core purposes of the IVR are as follows:
- Voltage stabilisation.
- Reduce radio interference.
Explanation of Solution
The IVR stands for Instrument Voltage Regulator. The two core purposes of the IVR are as follows:
- The IVR stabilizes and limits the voltage to gauges. This leads to accurate gauge reading.
- A radio choke included in the IVR clears the radio interference caused due to the pulsating output of the IVR.
Conclusion:
Thus, the two core purposes of the IVR are as follows:
- Voltage stabilization.
- Reduce radio interference.
