  • Problem using toroid

    Hi guys out there!


    I build a toroid made of 8pcs PVC waterpipes with 45° angle each


    for a PPM.


    The toroid has an outer diameter of about 3/4" (18 cm) and its body,


    where the coil is winded on, is about


    1 3/4" (40mm) thick. The 8 parts have been glued together using


    silicone, inside there is about 500ml


    (16 fl oz) destilled water which normally is used for filling car


    batteries.


    I used AWG #24 wire (0.5mm) and turned 6 layers on the toroid (about


    7.5 feet (230m) wire lenght).


    It has a resistance of 15.2 Ohms and an inductivity of 14.7 mH. As I


    tried to get a signal out of the coil


    I "charged"´it with about 800mA current but got only a short output


    signal (about 100mS on my memory scope)


    which seems to be only a switching "ping" from the filters.


    Because of the very short signal I'm afraid that I did something


    wrong on the toroid. Can anybody tell me


    what went wrong? The electronics has be tested with a signal


    generator and scope and it works fine.


    Is this short "ping" which startes with a big amplitude and


    continuesly run down within 100mS possibly


    the signal of the protons? I think its much too short, also if I


    increase the charging current to 1.5A


    the signal becomes bigger in amplitude but not longer.


    Is it possibly a problem if some acetic acid is left in the toroid


    coming from the silicone glue?


    After each layer I winded some double sided duct tape around the


    toroid for fixing the wire, is this


    possibly a problem?


    Thanks for telling me your experiences! Please mail me at
