Guest version2006 Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I need a new component to get my CS-50 working... I think it's a diode, not sure. need a new one anyway. The orange one. It stands about an inch high. The values are: 4R 8B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ten fingers ten toes Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 It looks more like a transistor to me... Diodes have 2 (or 4) legs, and that looks like a third pin in the middle there, unless Im seeing this wrong because the perspective is odd.

Guest version2006 Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I thought the same thing. Transistors do have three legs. Kind of looks like the one on the left on this page http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/components/tran.htm the values, though... 4R 8B wtf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ten fingers ten toes Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I would email the people that run this site: http://www.cs80.com/ They can probably tell you (as the CS-50 was a scaled down CS-80). They even have a whole page where they repaired a trashed CS-50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr. Modular Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 That's the diodes on the PSU board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest version2006 Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 YEah, it's part of the rectifier circuit...an scr diode. part D4 also, attached is the PSU for the cs80. I just need to find a suitable replacement with the correct values. Sahib from psw writes: A little clue. As a rule of thumb 1000uf capacitor value is chosen for 1A current (unless the designer has been very mean and squeezed the hell out of it). So that stands for 2A current. To be on the safe side move up to 3A. Any standard 3A rectifier diode would do. Check 1N540X series. 1N5402G is 3A 200V and it would do your job comfortably. CS-50 will work soon!
