    FSP350-60PN recapping.

    Shame on Fortron for stuffing a good PSU with a junky 120mm fan that finally siezed without me knowing it. Funny, I was not all hot about blue LED till one day blue LEDs went out, thankfully.

    And to top this, it needs caps in outputs.

    So I need these: 4 3300uF 6.3V (three were 10V'ers) and two 2200uF 16V all 10mm.

    This was early quiet PSU years ago when finding one is a rarity.

    Cheers, Wizard

    3300uF 6.3V is easy. Available in many good brands/series.

    2200uF 16V in 10mm and good brand/ratings is near impossible.
    (I need 20 or 30 myself.)

      Samxon makes them in that size. Even a 3300uF 16v RS is made with 10mm diameter.

        Chemicon LXZ is available in 1500uf/16v/10mm.
        Panasonic FJ is available in 1800uf/16v/10mm with 2.8 Amp Ir - highly recommended, no fails to date.

          Re: FSP350-60PN recapping.

          In their data sheet the highest uF of RS in 16v 10mm shown is 1500uF. Some of Big Popes stock lists sizes that don't exist in Samxon data tables too, which makes me wonder what's going on with Samxon.

          I love FJ's but I'm replacing 3300uF 16v (Fuhjyyu) with 2200uF already and I don't want to go down any more than 2200uF.

          1800uF should be okay for Wizard if the original caps are 2200uF.

          One dealer sent me some Rubycon PX series they advertised as "Low ESR Motherboard caps" and they are SO - NOT - low ESR that ESR is not even shown in the data table.
          Their ripple is only 2/3 of what the crap Fuhjyyu are.
          That was computekinc.us.
          I got tired of them not answering emails and ordered some just to see what they have.
          The answer is they don't answer emails because if they don't have good caps they'll substitute CRAP parts and call it good.
          (They were using MBZ in their photo for the PX caps.)


          Panasonic FK series shows a 2200uF 16v 10mm but I haven't been able to source any.
          [ FK's ripple/ESR is rated between HE/KY and KZE/ZL and lifetime is better than FC. ]

            3300uF / 16v 10mm and 2200uF 10mm are certainly custom made. BigPope has ordered some of those custom sizes and therefore 3300uF /16v /10mm is available. Same for 2200uF 16v 10mm GC series.

              Thanks,

              The issue is it a hell to order cross border from other electronic suppliers and many don't deal with small-time buyers especially I like to use money order. This is why I asked Wolf first then I'll try the badcaps.net's to order capacitors. I'll have to put this on hold till I have the motherboard as well so I can recap it and this PSU.

              Is there a GOOD supplier in canada where I can get hard to get decent capacitors like you are using as well?

              Cheers, Wizard

                Panasonic FK is very good if you can source it - it is manufactured both in Japan and Malaysia, and the Malaysian ones (with wide-scoured vents) seem to be just as durable as the Japanese. I've used them for about 2 years in mobo VRMs as well as PSUs, without a single failure.

                  Digikey canadian distributor does not have any except this Nichicon pdf pages:
                  1501-1549, last page:

                  LF series, aluminum solid electrolytic.
                  What I'm interested in is 4V 820uF, 10V and 16V both 470uF respectively.

                  Looks like I have to order other capacitors via badcaps.net by order money. :P

                    Hey Everyone,

                    Long time lurker, but I think this is my first time posting.

                    Just looking for some assistance on identifying some suitable replacement capacitors for an MSI K7T266 Pro (Ver. 1.0). I just got my hands on two of them actually, both working but one has some visibly bulging capacitors and the other has a few that I can't tell for sure if they're bulging because it's faint at best if they are.

                    I'll be honest I don't fully understand much on capacitor spec sheets beyond voltage and capacitance but I can solder like nobodies business so I've...

                    by Oldschool297
                    I found these, i would only like to try them on a board to see if it post. It don't post at the moment, i guess there are 9 6.3v 3300uf that can be broken. Is these low or high esr? I did not find info on the web.

                    Recapping Sony ICF-SW55 - verifying cap values
                    by proxneo
                    Dear reader

                    I am performing a repair on a Sony ICF-SW55, which includes recapping (some) of the SMD capacitors on the mainboard. I am looking for verification of their values. At the moment, I'm 95% sure I've got the right values, but it is hard to find some official, credible or multiple independant sources on this.

                    At the moment, I have selected replacements based on the following list of values:

                    3 x 470uF 10VDC
                    3 x 4.7uF 35VDC
                    4 x 47uF 50VDC
                    8 x 22uF 6.3 VDC
                    1 x 220uF 6.3VDC
                    5 x 100uF 6.3VDC

                    Which...

                    by Foetuss
                    Hi all

                    Hope this is in the correct place.

                    I'm planning on recapping both motherboards. I actually already ordered recplament caps for them, where I will be changing out most for poly's.
                    Could use some double checking to see if I'm not doing something stupid .

                    Pictures of the boards are attached.

                    4700uF 6.3v and 3300uF 16v in a 10mm Diameter
                    by Topcat
                    Where can I get them these days? My usual sources are a no go in a 10mm, 12.5mm is too big. I'm recapping an old Antec rackmount PSU for a client (SmartPower SP2-450SXR) with a bunch of spooged Fuhjyyu crap caps, and he's insisting it be repaired....which is fine by me, I make more on it that way.....but I need to find these illusive caps....it's been a long time since I've needed these values....and now I can't find them. Odds are I could get away with 3300uf in place of the 4700uF, I've done it before...but if there's a source for them in 10mm, I'll try to stay original.
