    Caps compatible issues

    Hi,

    On samsung syncmaster 740n power board, three caps with 820uf 25v are bad. Can I replace them with 1000uf (M) 25v? 820uf 25v not available in the local market. If what I havr is not compatible, then what is the next best compatible caps can i use?

    Thanks

      1000 is o.k. IF they fit.
      820 are probably smaller.
      dont forget they must be low-esr

          Does the (M) matter?
          They are B41827 EPCOS 85 deg Celsius.

              no, and if they are 85' then they arent low impedance - which may explain why they need replacing!
              i doubt those epcos caps are original!

                      don't think it can be a problem

                          So you put in General purpose cap instead of Low ESR type which is required by the Switching power supply.

                              Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
                              by momaka
                              I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

                              For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

                              It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

                              Can't find exact matching caps for replacements, what should I get to prevent video issues?
                              by SluggerB
                              I have an old Tivo. The Power Supplies are known to have caps that fail. Here are the caps that come with the original power supply:



                              I could not find replacement caps with the exact same specs. I followed an online guide and recapped the power supply with caps with these specs



                              The power supply now works, however the HDMI video is giving me eye strain. I don't know how a capacitor on a Power supply could impact an HDMI video signal, but it does, the Tivo interface has a flicker now and the color/brightness is off. So I want to get some new caps...

                              Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
                              by eryjus
                              Hello,

                              First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

                              I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

                              I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."
                              ...

                              by Paxman_Swede
                              Hello!

                              I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

                              The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

                              I have studied the board and...

                              Help with switching power supply caps
                              by captain150
                              I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
                              I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...
