Hi
I'm new here so please forgive me from jumping in with a request for help with restoring my medium screen projector
I found this forum during a search for RANK-CINTEL and read that some suscribers might have worked there ?
I am in need of a D303 GREEN PROJECTION CRT by RANK PRECISION TUBES - I understand there used to be regular tube replacements so I would have thougt it was not impossible that someone somewhere might have had one
I used to work there but left a long time ago.
Cintel themselves didn't produce CRTs, but they did use them in their flying-spot telecines as a scanning light source. The CRT was a regular replacement as it was run at pretty high eye-dazzling levels and suffered from burnout. Sorry I can't recall the actual tube as it was too long ago.
They were made by Rank Precision Tubes who were based in Sidcup, Kent IIRC.
You might want to ping dexters_lab on here as he regularly gets hold of vintage post-production equipment so he might know someone?
