I think you'll find it was FN-372-2-21 Dave

They had been stored in damp conditions and moisture was absorbed into one of the WIMA caps inside the Schaffner filter. The caps were only rated 250V and where I was living (half way between two nukes) the line voltage often reached 255V (logged by UPS). This may have contributed to the several failures I had, but many people reported the same problem at the time. I chose to rebuild several filters (the meters were so cheap, there was no need to only pick up only one!) because I had no confidence the new (and quite expensive) schaffner product would have higher spec parts than the original. I guess you'll only be running 110V, so the filter may last indefinitely, but you only need smell a failed filter once to have all the incentive you need. I did a pictorial write up of my rebuild which is hosted on Stanleys site http://www.n4iqt.com/solartron The original part is FN-372-2 cheers, ian _______________________________________________ volt-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/volt-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ volt-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/volt-nuts and follow the instructions there.
