Stromberg-Carlson 400H replacement Pwr transformer
11/23/2007 12:01:29 PMDave Froehlich
Hello All,
I have another egg fryer power transformer, this time, in a Stromberg-Carlson 400H. I usually ask everyone's opinion before I make my final selection. There is a power transformer that has a B+ winding of: 280-0-280 at 60mA. I'm not sure that's enough but it cost the least. What's your opinion? Which Hammond Power transformer would you use in the Stromberg Carlson 400H?

Thanks,

Dave

Looks like that set is merely using an 80 rectifier and four other 6V tubes. Also with it only using a single ended 6V6, that voltage should be sufficient and be
less strain, particularly if it ends up getting a lots of use.

The original transformer core mass seems to be somewhat in that order:





73's de Edd

Edd,
The speaker in the Radio I have here has a speaker with a field coil. If that doesn't make any difference, then I'll go for the low priced transformer.

Thanks Very Much,

Dave

Edd,
I meant to say that the speaker has a field coil in this radio. But somehow speaker got in there twice.

Thanks Again,

Dave

Edd,
That new power transformer works perfectly.

Thanks,

Dave
