Hello All,
My Zenith 95-1837 power transformer does not work. It is part of an old sterophonic tube console stereo that I'm trying to get to work.
Ok, so I want to buy a replacement transformer, but I don't quite get how to do it. I have the schematic and it gives me the following details of the power transformer
Primary: 117V @ .78A
Section 1: 720 VCT @ .105A
Section 2 5V @ 2amp
Section 3 6.3 V@ 1.8A
I'm on the EDCOR site, but they don't have a direct match.
Question 1 should I buy a 115V or 120V transformer?
Question 2 Should it be rated at 720 Volts (less or more)?
Question 3 A lot of these power transformers have the same voltage rating but different amp ratings. Should I buy more or less amps.
I get that the primary voltage is for the mains
I get that section 2 and 3 are for the tubes
After that, I have no idea what I'm doing.
The amd doesn't have to be EDCOR, but the website is the easiest for me to follow..Ha.
Cheers.
