Tek 575 parts wanted


 

Looking for 3 parts for my Tek 575:
1) The Collector Supply Auto Transformer. The 576 used the same one up to s/n 326319. Its a Powerstat 10B-1218, but it looks like any Powerstat 10B would work.
2) The rear fan filter frame. The one from my 547 fits, but has the corner indentations for the power cord. So in a pinch I could use on of those.
3) Feet. My unit is a very late ('69) build, has (had) plastic feet with 2 mounting screws each.
I'm in the US, Milwaukee WI area.
Thanks,
Charlie


 

Hi Charlie,

re: rear fan filter frame. Here's one that might work.



This is from MercedesMan aka "Tubehunter". He will have a lot of 5 series Tek parts from time to time. I've bought from him before.

re: 575 auto-transformer. Just agreeing with your suspicion that the generic Powerstat 10B could work. I have a 575 and I also happened to have a couple generic 10B's that I bought off eBay. They looked identical, right down to the label, with what is in my circa 1962 575...so I tend to agree with your idea that a generic 10B will work.

Sadly, I blew up both of those powerstats several years ago in a failed experiment. But good news is that I easily found them on eBay for a very cheap price, so there is hope.

To that end, here's a couple eBay powerstats that look like mine (working from memory here, but pretty sure this is it)



and here's another



Hope this helps a little.


 

Thanks Keith for the info, had seen those autotransformers on ebay as well, will check them out.


 

Forgot to add a 4th item:
The 0.8 Amp Circuit Breaker for the Collector supply.

Thanks,
Charlie


 

I've found the fan frame & autotransformer, still looking for the 0.8A Circuit Breaker & feet.
Thanks!
