If YOU owned a Henry 3K amplifier (bear with me, please) and you were
hell-bent on repairing it with the view of NEVER blowing another plate
transformer, and you are a contester and want the amp (transformer and
other components) to run cool. What would you be considering with regard to
a replacement transformer (make, model, specifications) or, if you were
considering rewinding the original Triad core, what specs would you want?
_________________________________
I copies the following from the Dahl site:
HENRY 3K ER PLATE EXACT REPLACEMENT, TRIAD P/N 70400 EI-250 X 5" 29GM6XRH
04 65 $425.00
PR) 230 VAC 60 HZ HI-LO TAP S1) 3800/2800 VAC @ 600MA CCS
DM) HT = 8.250 WT = 6.250 DT = 8.150 MD = 7.000 MW = 5.000 WT = 65.2 LBS
______________________________________
I was surprised the Triad was rated at only 600ma. If I'm going to get this
rewound up here (I live in Toronto), and the transformer must remain the
same dimensions, can the specifications be improved upon (i.e., 800 ma, or
1,000 ma)?
Should I decide to buy an new transformer, can any you suggest a
manufacturer, website if available.
Any other pertinent info that I haven't thought of would also be appreciated.
Post to reflector, please.
73, Paul Hicks.
