    I need a schematic for the RF cabinet for an ICP/6000 
Perkin-Elmer Atomic Absorption (AAS),Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical
Emission Spectrometer.
The RF portion of this is a 2KW 13.56 MHz  exciter and amplifier using
a single 5CX1500A tube w/ 6146 driver and 12BY7 xtal oscillator.
Guess I could make a TX of the exciter as well. HI HI HI
  It is 3 phase so I have to modify the power supply. That is 
not a problem. I have loads of Power supply parts. This thing has
more interlocks than I have seen for some time. Even has a diaphram
pressure switch to protect the tube loss of air flow.
I am sure a number of hams have converted such things for 
amateur use. There is plenty of room in the RF cabinet to place
a 850 coil and band switch. I can remove the exciter replace it
with a swamping resistor and bias it for class AB1.
  But some documentation would be very useful. The controls
and interlocks are quite complex and have at least a dozen
plug-in relays and there is an auto tuner as well.
