ABSTRACT:
Power supply circuit for a single-winding electromagnet coil (11) comprising a low voltage DC power supply (20) and a high voltage AC power supply (30) both connected to the terminals of the winding (11), together with a switching apparatus (40) connected in series with the high voltage supply (30) and capable of supplying or cutting the high voltage power supply to the winding (11), characterized by the fact that the switching device (40) comprises a thyristor (42) connected between the high voltage source (30) and the winding (11) and a control circuit (43) for the thyristor (42) connected to the gate (G) of the thyristor used to cause the thyristor to conduct when the high voltage source (30) delivers the positive phase of a voltage wave.
