Dave,

How do I view ¡°141T reference replacement¡±?? Are there PCBs available? If so what is the price?

Already done, see ¡°141T reference?replacement" topic and photo album.

Bill,

The 141T that I purchased from Valuetronics now has a new fan and the power transistor sockets have been replaced. Now the 1A fuses on the 8552 IF module are popping.? I built a fixture that I can monitor the basic supply voltages with out the plugins in and the 141T covers on.? ?It turns out that there is an over voltage crowbar circuit in the IF module that fires at -15V.? I took some startup scope traces and they show that the -12.6V over shoots to -15.2V and the +100 overshoots as well.? Since these are tracking regulators and the basic reference is the neon tube in the +100V supply I tested it during startup and it overshoots badly.? Enclosed are some of the startup scope traces I took.? I am working on a circuit that will replace the neon tube with a 50V Zener in series with a TL431.? Since the 50V Zener will be inside the control loop its temp coefficient will not be an issue.? I will publish the TL431 design later in the week.?

CONV mode is the only functional mode, i get blooming at almost any intensity / persistence setting in storage mode unless its so low its basically OFF.? ? ? ??

Beware of using the 141T in "Conv" mode, you cannot see if the intensity is set too high & causing damaging the storage mesh. You need to start with it in storage mode and turn intensity down to stop the blooming, then switch to "Conv", if there is any blooming, the intensity is set too high, do not increase the intensity once in "Conv" mode.

Attached are the numerous warnings in the 1973 manual and the label that is attached to the cover of my 141T.
