Re: Post help identifying capacitors here
The basic values are there, but no (known to me) manufacturer, no series name, no date code.
Me neither, found an old useless mfrbee.com entry pointing to China and nothing else. Ok, I think it is necessary to take a closer look at the circuit to find suitable replacement types. Will do that later in the power supply forum.
Thanks for commenting....

Re: Post help identifying capacitors here
Can anybody identify these "ELFL" ones? Found them bulged in a 15 years old office table motor controller with a blown bridge rectifier. Looking for a datasheet but couldn't find anything with "ELFL"....Leave a comment:

Re: Asus M2A-VM preventive KZG recap, as it turned out unnecessary in this case
Nice, thanks for the link.
The new caps are on the board. Running some tests ATM.
Thanks for the comments. Much appreciated.

Re: Intel D410PT, KZG replacement
Thought I had a few FM 6,3/1000 ones, but no, it was a bunch of 6,3/1500.
So now it's a little overkill and it looks a little funny. However, specs wise it's beyond any doubt.
[CODE]KZG 6,3/820 0.036/1140 8x11,5 mm
FM 6,3/1500 0.019/2180 10x20 mm[/CODE]
Thanks guys.

Re: Recapping a DC-DC converter, 12V to ATX, which caps to use?
The four new FRs are in place, board is working fine.
Didn't bother to take out the remaining general purpose "EVA Top" ones. They all measured "something". Good enough.

Re: Asus M2A-VM preventive KZG recap, as it turned out unnecessary in this case
What date(s) are printed on the removed ones?
Yes, they were. Or are. If the right caps were/are on.
Actually I liked the M2A-VM a lot back then. And I still do. It's an AM2 board with IGP and DVI-D, it has support for some AM3 CPUs and there's a version with an HDMI connector as well. PCIe is 1.1 only, but it already has SATA II / 300 Mbit. And Gbit LAN. With 8 GB of CL5 DDR2 RAM, a reliable SSD, an Athlon II X2 250 (AM3, K10, 3.0 GHz DualCore,...Last edited by Exim; 11-17-2020, 03:45 AM.Leave a comment:

Yeah, ESR is worse, but just by 2 mOhms.

Recapping a DC-DC converter, 12V to ATX, which caps to use?
This "beautiful" converter board is from an old Mini-ITX case. It uses 12V DC as input and converts it to ATX voltages.
I'd like to recap it. The machine is in use 24/7 as a router.
A: "E.V.A. Top"
470µ/16V
B: Sanyo WX 470µ/16V (in the 12V rail)
C: (currently four bulged junk caps that need to go) originally these were four green sleeved low quality 1000µ/6,3V caps that blew up years ago (the upper two are in the 5V, the lower two in the 3,3V rail)
My plan is:

Intel D410PT, KZG replacement
Intel D410PT, a Mini-ITX board with a single core Atom D410 onboard, TDP 10W, passive cooling. It's used as a router and running 24/7 since years.
There are Rubycons, Nichicons, some cheap looking caps I can't identify in the audio circuit, two Vcore caps I also can't identify - and a single KZG, the KZG is the only one that popped.
The KZG will be replaced with a Panasonic FM 6,3/1000 I have at hand.
Does anybody recognize the manufacturer of these two?

Re: Asus M2A-VM preventive KZG recap, as it turned out unnecessary in this case
Ah, you're right, that's the 8x20 KZGs, not the 10x16. I'll get some FRs then. regarding ESR and ripple KZG are 0.021/1870, FR and FS are 0.030/1560. Close enough....Leave a comment:

Asus M2A-VM preventive KZG recap, as it turned out unnecessary in this case
This Asus M2A-VM was running 24/7 for 12 years without problems. CPU was a TDP 45W DualCore only, but still, 12 years are 12 years. I'm preparing this board as a spare part, it has to replace another one with blown caps. So before using it as a spare part it obviously needs to be checked. Because of the [URL="https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28796"]collection of bad caps usually on this board[/URL] I was prepared for the worst.
Surprise #1: This particular board is an "almost-exclusively-Panasonic" specimen. It has the usual four 1000/16 Chemi-Con...Last edited by Exim; 11-08-2020, 06:06 PM. -
Re: Yamaha YST-MS25 amp board recap: replace small electrolytics with different type?
Yeah, but you need to know how handle it.
Yes, since replacing two replacement caps with replacement caps
it's working fine again.
The initial reason for the left channel volume drop was probably one of the very small old caps around the pre-amp. Couldn't measure all of them, my ESR meter only handles caps >= 1uF.
The new solder joints are ok and shiny, the camera is just crap.

Re: Harmon Kardon HK206 PC speakers
You could start with checking the power supply. If it's plugged into the main speaker (instead of a fixed cable) so you can measure without disassembling: Does it deliver the specified voltage and amps, also if loaded? Also check for loose/broken cable or plug.Last edited by Exim; 11-10-2018, 09:48 AM.Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha YST-MS25 amp board recap: replace small electrolytics with different type?
Replaced all electrolytics up to 10uF with PET films, the others with Pana FC.
It is (well, it was) fixed. Left channel working fine again.
The signal path between input and power amps now contains PET films only, the remaining signal-path-electrolytics - now FCs - are between the power amps and the speakers.
My impression is that actually the sound is a little different, less bass, treble is about the same. All subjective, no science. If this comes...

Re: Yamaha YST-MS25 amp board recap: replace small electrolytics with different type?
Lead spacing is 5mm. Found some film caps that will fit.
The area below the large heatsink - almost the whole board - is darkened, it's not really visible on the pictures. Airflow in the box is the bare minimum, maybe less, there were small 85°C caps next to hot ICs and resistors. But yeah, seems at least replacing the 4700u and 1000u PSU filter caps was probably not necessary.

Yamaha YST-MS25 amp board recap: replace small electrolytics with different type?
Hi there, I'm working on the 25W amp board of a [URL="https://www.google.com/search?q=yst-ms25&tbm=isch"]Yamaha YST-MS25[/URL]. It's 20yrs old.
Since a few months the volume on the left channel is way too low. It turned out that - compared to the intended use and the former price tag of this thing - they put solid stuff into it. So I decided it's worth a recap.
The board uses two amp ICs on opposite sites of the board. Both ICs are connected to the same heatsink. The heatsink unfortunately is a bridge-like construction that covers almost all other components, including...Last edited by Exim; 10-31-2018, 04:40 PM. -
Re: Fanless Silverstone ST30NF / Etasis EFN-300 caps busted
Sorry for bringing this back up. Just realized I never gave feedback
I didn't recap it. There were too many reasons against it, as already written in this thread: Unefficient design, compared to other PSUs it was already not-so-efficient when it was new (the machine it was in puts just 1/3 load on it), no airflow, caps pocketed so new caps would cook as well, lots of time and effort to dis-/reassemble the whole thing stuffed with components and heatpipe and whatever. Also in case more components died...Leave a comment:

Fanless Silverstone ST30NF / Etasis EFN-300 caps busted
Fanless Silverstone ST30NF, also known as Etasis EFN-300, doesn't power up anymore. Was working 24/7 for about seven years until it switched off itself.
This thing is massive, even with the thick aluminum case removed. Components squeezed into every corner. Three daughter boards.
There's 3 KMG 400V 150 uF on primary. And a KMG 50V 1uF close to it.
On secondary four of five black Teapo C3 10V 3300uF are blown.
There's a green Teapo C1 16V 2200uF.
A bunch of other caps are hiding below the heatsinks. One is bulged. Can't really identify...
