Kathy, I'd advise replacing the diode string in your SB-200 with 1N4007 diodes instead of 1N5408. Not that there's anything wrong with the 1N5408, but the holes in the circuit board will have to be d

I agree. I didn't think about the holes when I recommended the 1n5408's. They have a higher current rating, of course, but as Jim says, it won't make any difference in the SB200. -- Vic, K2VCO Fresno

I mentioned the 1N5408 holes 2 days ago at the start of the thread. I still prefer them to 1N4007's as their surge current survivability far exceeds the 1N4007. After all the idea is to not have smok

Agreed Jim! 3 amp diodes are an overkill on the SB-200 and SB-220. 73 Jim W7RY _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailma

I disagree! Yes, you do have to enlarge the holes to use the 1N5408. However, the added protection of both the higher current rating and the surge of the 1N5408 over the 1N4007 will assure that if on

Think about this again. The SB200/220 both use a voltage doubler capacitor filter hv supply. We know that peak currents in these type supplies can be five to ten times the average current. So, with a

Think about this again... Please send your math that supports your claim below as to current draw (3 to 6 amps 60 times per second)? Also, please take a look at the schematic of both the SB-200 and t

Very correct Gerald. Even Dentron and Amp Supply used 2.5A and 3A diodes as does Ameritron from the beginning with the AL-80 series with 1N5408's. I do a fairly large SB-200/220 repair business and 6

Excellent point Gerald I also wonder if any one has done the math or actually measured the increase in diode / transformer current from arbitrarily increasing the original filter cap size from the or

1N4007 has a peak current rating of 30 amps for one cycle. 10 amp repetitive peak current and 1 amp average current. The 1N5408 has a peak current rating of 200 amps for one cycle. 50 amp repetitive

Actually, the original electrolytic capacitors were -50% / +80% in value. New capacitors generally come in +/-10% or +/-20%. Since the +/-20% capacitors are generally quite a bit less in cost, and si

Hi Jim, the math is well known so I won't repeat it here. You are 100% correct about the THOUSANDS of SB200/220 units in service. The discussion had addressed replacing BLOWN diodes and it only makes
