Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
Sorry - that voltage is down to earth.
There is 325 V DC across the cap itself.

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
I have removed the caps hidden under the white glue and they are
C951 2200uf 16v ltec
C952 22uf 50v nichicon
C953 is 1000uf 10 v nichicon and is located next to the purple +5VSB lead out wire.
They all look good.
I will have to order replacements....Leave a comment:

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
I have replaced the blown cap 3300uF 6.3 V but the supply does not fire up and no voltage of 5VSB. Any ideas?Leave a comment:

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
I am not sure what C9 you refer to but adjacent to the purple lead there is C 953 1000 uF 10 v . I attach a sketch of the cap layout with all the information I can ascertain without cap removal.
Hope this helps and regards....Leave a comment:

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
The blown cap is a CapXon GL 3300 uF 6.3 volt.
Here is a pic of the underside of the board with the blown cap removed . Its position is marked up as BAD CAP...Leave a comment:

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
There is no voltage on the purple wire to ground. Please note the errant cap has been removed from the board.
Here are some pics. If you require others please advise.
The RIMG0816 file shows a close up of the brown errant cap placed in situ....Leave a comment:

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
Forgot to advise that after replacing the power supply the computer booted as normal.
Thanks for moving the thread....Leave a comment:

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
Please advise what pics you would like.
I am not sure what are "primary capacitors" Are they the ones close to the mains input where they are about 8 small caps close together?. I am not sure about the manufacturer of the other caps without removing. .
Thank you for your advice re KMG and KZM.
Many thanks...Leave a comment:

Re: ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
The computer does not fire-up the fan is not working. There is no voltage on the green wire and shorting this to a black wire does nothing.
Please advise what pictures you would like.
Many thanks....Leave a comment:

ANTEC Power Supply EA-430D - Suddenly dead!
This PS is about 6 years old and suddenly died.
A 3300 uF 6.3 V cap is swollen and had brown gunge in the cross channels
It is a CapXon product - GL 105 deg C series.
Could this be the reason for sudden and complete failure?
All, other caps look OK.
Is a Nippon Chemi-Con KMG series Cap of the same basic specification and size a suitable replacement?
I appreciate any help. -
