  • Re: Tdk 614-003

    I don't think there are custom caps... btw, I'm not an electronics expert and I came here for a problem myself.

    BTW, as for your problem with the ELNA RSG capacitors, I think I may have solved your situation. I just found a capacitor cross reference from year 2000 that [b]should[/b] be reporting equivalent capacitors from various manufacturers and series.

    That means you could find the specs of those equivalent capacitors and find a new one that will suit.

    Personally, I've replaced the caps in my PSU with Panasonic caps (one...

    Yup, there's a sense wire.
    In my case it's brown, and.. yup, it's properly soldered on both PCB and connector.

    All of the 3.3V cables are apparently on the same rail... it's useless to say that there are two cables that are grouped per pin, because on the rear they're soldered on the same rail anyway.

    The cables... yeah, they're soldered in properly, if I wanted I could easily have lifted the whole PSU taking only the 3.3V cables in my hands... even only one lol.
    The voltage can be read on all of the 3.3V pins on the ATX connector AND on the CPU 4+4 connector.

    Btw, even if that su'scon capacitor was fine,...

    Hey. Have a better read at my post.

    I said that I've measured with BOTH BIOS and multimeter and the BIOS readings were exactly the same of my MULTIMETER!

    Can't edit the previous post... so I'm writing a new one.
    I've "successfully" changed almost all of the caps, apart one 68uF that is really impossible to replace unless I desolder practically everything - and - the 400V 390uF cap (that is by nippon chemicon, so, well, as already said, useless to replace).

    Fact is.... I verified the PSU health after the operation and the voltages were obviously high (no load on the PSU), but this time not REALLY high like when I verified with the old caps.
    With...

    Sorry, I've had absolutely no time to post the photo I promised, so I'm posting it now.

    At the end of all, I decided to buy a new soldering iron: got a discount, it's still something chinese, but 60W at 10 euros is a good price IMHO!
    I also bought the new capacitors that now are compliant to the old ones' ESR, just higher ripple, but from what I've read the ripple can be higher no problem.

    Today I should get the new caps, but I don't know if I'll replace 'em today or tomorrow. I'll anyway shoot...

    Sorry, I've had to run and had no time to write here.

    @goodpsusearch
    Yup, absolutely. It's the same thing


    Anyway. That Su'Scon capacitor that was leaking (just a little though) is really strange...
    I mean, it's practically the only really-low-ESR capacitor in a forest of same capacitance and voltage with higher ESR. I really wonder why.

    Apparently, it looks like being an higher quality thing compared to the other ones but, well, as I said, differently from the others,...

  • Re: NOX Krypton 800W - Higher voltages, need recap?

    Yeah, it was the first one I've tried. Here in Italy they only ship to business... so I can't get things from there :\



    EDIT:
    Okay, well... it's time to open up the PSU - AGAIN. I'm about to better examine the caps, as I wrote only the values, without specifying brand and model.
    I'll be away for a couple of minutes/hours... or I may get back with my phone. Who knows.


    EDIT2:
    OOOOOUUUCH! I found the bad guy!!
    There is an "hidden" (under a wires forest)...

    Ah yeah, RS Components! Wants 20 euros for shipping here. I'm buying the caps from Conrad, free shipping!

    So the ESR is too low (dimensions aren't a problem, it can be fitted, trust me)?! :| Crap... coming with the other caps.

  • Re: NOX Krypton 800W - Higher voltages, need recap?

    Because I really can't find anything that's from a trusted brand and a trusted series that is rated at 16V.
    That's the only good one I could find.... and then I've always read that the voltage on there is just a limit, so it's only about wasting money if I take an higher-rated capacitor.
    Isn't that true?


    P.S.: Obviously, the values are expressed in mA r.m.s. for Ripple and milliOhm for ESR.

  • Re: NOX Krypton 800W - Higher voltages, need recap?

    Hmm... Making a list then, searching through the datasheets.
    Btw, that website was really useful.

    I've already bought the replacements, but at this point it seems some won't get replaced.
    I'm making a list of the old -> new capacitors to ask to you all if the thing can be done (with the ones I've ordered. obviously new ones will be ordered again).

    In the meanwhile, I've started with the most important (IMHO) capacitor.
    Old -> JPCE-TUL 16V 3300uF - Ripple: 2460 - ESR: 0.023

    Oh, CRAP I'd say.
    Just seen that the Panasonic FR replacement (fuck, wasted money) has got an higher ESR.

    ChemiCon -> 10mOhm ESR, 6,100 mA rms
    Panasonic -> 41mOhm ESR, "1240" mA rms

    Now, what about that comma on the ChemiCon sheet?
    Should I interpret it as comma or as number separator? :\

    Oh, I forgot to say that, yes, it's a 16V 470uF capacitor... I've already taken the cap values (that was pretty obvious since I ordered the new ones).

    So it is a Nippon ChemiCon capacitor? That sounds really good!
    I paid a lot of money for that PSU when I bought it years ago.. though, this is just one of the two good caps in there. The other good one (also nippon chemicon) is the 400V cap.

    Hmm.. well, I've already ordered a Panasonic FR replacement for it that, obviously, isn't a solid cap. What...

    I don't know which brand is it.
    The solid cap I'm talking about is visible for half in the third photo, you can see that there's some sort of logo (is it a logo? lol) but I can't really recognize it.
    Apart from the obvious basic specs, I can read a code on the capacitor: "C01A" (or CO1A)... I tried to google it (really fast) but I can't really get a good search result.

    I'm trying to search a bit better right now. I'll let you know if I will be able to find it or not.. :°)

    Ah! Unfortunately,...

    -- Sorry for the double post, I wanted to edit the previous one but seems I can't (90mins expired) --

    Btw, my new caps should be delivered today.
    From what I know, I should only replace the >100uF... but well, I bought everything I could find, so I'm going to also replace the 22, 68 and 47uf caps. The 22uf one is 50V, it should be on the primary circuit, but well.. from what I've read on this community, CapXon is total crap.
    What makes me somehow both happy and sad is that I've actually got a solid cap...

    Yeah, many thanks for resizing the images for me... and thanks for remembering me about irfanview.. I used to use GIMP in those cases, but I haven't got it right now (waiting for my photoshop license to get activated).


    /*** OT reply warning ***
    About the quality of the pictures I've posted and the laugh on the Xperia Z1... no, well, you aren't totally right. I'm using an internal testing release, in which we are trying to get 4K recording, so the camera libraries are somehow fucked up (unofficial)....

    Actually I wanted to. Fact is, my Photoshop evaluation just expired, so........ heh.
    Btw, killing a laptop with a few 20MPx images is overkill, lol... anyway, sorry for that.

    @stj
    Well, you're absolutely right. Infact, the Panasonic FR caps that I've ordered are slightly bigger. I tried to order more taller ones than fatter ones... but I don't see where's the problem in that.

    I mean, it's still going to fit in there. Or is there anything else I'm ignoring?
    Also, there's...

    Well, I've got some pictures but those are not clear at all... I mean, I took the pictures to remember some capacitors (the gave up and went with my eyes and the old pen-and-paper way).

    I can upload the ones I have on my phone, but I can't make new ones because this is my only PSU and I'm really using my PC every second here. Programming, you know.
    Give me 5 minutes :°)

  • NOX Krypton 800W - Higher voltages, need recap?

    Hello everyone!

    This is my first "real post" on there and... well, I have always been the one who is actually helping someone else (not on this board, mostly for SW development), so.. lol, now that I'm asking for help, it feels somehow strange :P :P


    Well, coming to the real thing, here's the problem!

    I've got a NOX Krypton 800W PSU and I've been reading dozens of pages in this section to acquire some informations and actually get some real culture on that topic.
    So, while reading the threads, I've seen an interesting message by an user...
