I got a bug up my ass. When I got the 400 from Don last year I recapped it including the 3 and 4 section caps. The Single Can Cap and the Triple I stuffed, but the 4 section I replaced with separates. Nothing wrong with it but it doesn't look right to me with all the extraneous stuff undrneath and I want to clean it up underneath.
NOW COMES THE PROBLEM. Depending on which schematic or manual you use the part number will be C52 or C75 so let's use the 21001-29999 and C52.
The problem section here is section "D" with a 500V requirement. HOWEVER on the voltage indicators on the schematic, at the junction on thepositive side of this cap it's 395. My testing on mine is 386-388.
My requirement is a 4 section FP CAP with the same values and equal or increased voltages. I don't want to add caps, or get a 3 section and leave another cap underneath on the 4th section.
Hayseed Hamfest has a 47/47/47/22 @ 450/450/450/350
I'm thinking that this would be plenty enough voltage overhead.
YES? NO? And Why?
Thanks
Larry
