Heath/Schlumberger SP2717 power supply arrived the other day, thanks to forum member Kalin
Took the top cover off and was surprised to find more tubes than expected, it turns out that it's actually a Heathkit IP-17. It survived it's journey across the pond apart from bent front and back panels. First job is to replace the 40 year old electrolytic caps dated '78. 15mm spaced radial caps will fit for the 70uF and 40uF parts and all the 20uF parts were replaced with axial 22uF caps. Re-wire the transformer primaries for 240AC, more on that later. Check all of the resistors and they turn out to be within better than 5%. Remove all of the front panel furnature, no soldering required, bend front panel back into shape, re-fit all of the pots and switches and re-fit the front panel. So far so good.
Power it up, tweak the 0V and 400V reference pots and all is good. The load regulation, tested with 30W load, isn't as good as the spec says, it's 1V instead of 500mV and that could be down to tired 6BH6 which may have been replaced at some point because it's a GE branded tube and not EI-MANCO like the rest of the tubes. Regulation is good enough I'm not complaining.
My only complaint is that the heater voltage is 6.95V on load, it's 10% too high and that is on
all of the heater windings !! grrr. The HV transformer is spot on however. Next job is to fit a small toroid 115-0-115 to 12-0-12 to step down the primary voltage on the heater transformer. 7VAC heater voltage is way out of spec and I'm running the transformers at 236VAC Grrr
