Reducing flickering on PWM loads

Gnome
in Inverters

Featured Replies

Hi all

This is a long shot, but any advise on reducing flicking while running on loads that are driven using PWM?

I do a lot of electronics and often use a heat gun which uses TRIAC to control the heating element.

Similarly my 3d printer has a heated bed which is currently DC driven by PWM and the power supply is a MeanWell LRS 350-24. (Soon to be replaced by a AC heated bed which will be powered using SSR, though I suspect that would have essentially the same problem)

So all of these things have the same thing in common, it cause flickering of the lights while on inverter (visible flickering, not like on/off but dimming and brightening)

I'm running an Axpert King, however I suspect any inverter will struggle with this type of load.
