- Hello all, I am seeking input on a potential problem with my "almost new" B+ transformer. It is a 240V input, output 4 taps from 2800-3000V rated 2 amp full load. Transformer was tested in situ today

- I assumed not since it was built as it is, but that said a dead SB220 HV transformer I pulled apart did indeed have insulated bolts. Should I try doing so, maybe with a teflon tube as opposed to pape

- Thanks Dick, I can try that. As constructed the bolts are running thru the same piece of angle aluminum that mounts the transformer to the chassis. As for cap bank I am using six 2watt 220k metal fil

- Thanks much for the ideas gents. So far I tried the following: 1.) insulated the core from the chassis with a scrap 1/4" lexan sheet (no bolts just let it sit there) & powered it up with no cap bank

- Thanks for the great info Manfred. I didn't get your email until after I sent my latest. I agree 1000%, I can't use it as it is. I think after a few hours running even at idle it would get hot enough

- Thanks again for all the advice gents- problem solved. As a FWIW, I tried powering the transformer (no load, caps) with the bolts removed, and of course no heating of the core at all. Next, as an exp

- Just curious- my understanding was the RUs are still manufacturing GS35bs- am I wrong on this account? I have a "stock" onhand but am worried they too will become scare if this is the case. FWIW I ha

- Methinks you are correct Charles. QRO-parts has the site as mentioned in Aage's email & also sells Russian surplus on Ebay under that name. Having had an email exchange with "QRO-parts" [NOT QRO TECH

- Is it reasonable to test a pair of 3-400s in an SB220 ? If I remember correctly the 3-500 is also a "zero bias" tube - that said, would the slight bias voltage (6.? I forget) in my 220 create a false

- Thanks to all for the responses. Wanted to be sure I gave them a fair test before putting them on the display shelf. They are beautiful, but essentially dead tubes. 73 Dave N3DB _____________________
