Re: Identiying SAMXON caps series

Checking the SS data sheet, it says rated temp +85°C, but the capacitors above are marked 105°C in the plastic wrap

Thank you

Re: Identiying SAMXON caps series

I think they will fit. Have to check if Mouser carries them, but if not, having those parts numbers should allow me to find similar ones in what they carry. I am trying to stay with Mouser because is where I have found the rest of the capacitors.

Thank you for your answer.

I want to replace all caps in 2005FPW power board. There are three capacitors, C214 (10uF/50V 105°C), C215(47uF/50V 105°C) and C217(22uF/50V 105°C), all SAMXON brand, color dark violet, almost black. The only marks other than the above ratings are "8 U5A" after the 105°C. Any idea what series they may be or what a good replacement could be ?

Re: Replacing white goop in repaired 2005FPW power boardcap

While I agree with you on most of the parts being held by goop, there are four in particular that the glue holds blocks of rubber on top, the transformer, the two big radiators and a group of five big capacitors. Those blocks will be in tight contact with the metal housing, and seems to me that the reason to be is to dampen vibrations.


I know I could forget about it, but I do not want to end with some continuous humming noise.

Edit: my main concern is the block of five capacitors.

I am about to replace all caps in the power board and a couple in the logic side.
The power board has many caps with white glue, I assume to prevent humming noise. I would like to put something back once the caps are replaced. Any suggestions on what to use?

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

I found this forum looking for a fix for a flickering 2005FPW monitor. I have experience in electronics, but have not practiced for a long time. Now that the winter is closing in here in Minnesota, is the time to dust off my old tools and order some capacitors.

Thank you to all the dedicated members keeping this forum alive.
