[Amps] Titan fan

[W7RY]

What is wrong with the fan? Is the motor defective? It's just a small shaded pole motor that may be available from WW Granger or other source.

  Hello Dave,

  Yes, I think that you are correct; the figures would need amending for two
  tubes, and, I assume how the airflow is fed to the tube bases, that is, a
  single air chamber beneath two tube bases, or two separate bases with a "Y"
  hose connection to a single fan. A simple "U" tube water manometer, was
  shown in several "tube period" ARRL handbooks, to aid the checking of "back
  pressure", but I do not have access to a Titan, to carry out any
  measurements. It just seemed unfair to me, that there appeared to be no
  information on replacing an obsolete defunct Titan fan. Perhaps if you have
  a greater knowledge of the subject/fans, you could amend my offering to the
  reflector?   Sincerely, John.

  John,

   

  The figure specified on Eimac data sheets is for ONE tube.   I believe your
  calculation is for one tube --- am I correct?
