Keithley 225 - Transformer wanted (or replacement advice)

(1/1)

705jas:
Hi All

I have a Keithley 225 that I think is otherwise in good condition but unfortunately, I get no voltages out of the transformer at all.  Looks to have been butchered at some time in the past??  I am looking for a replacement either new or second-hand.  If someone can advise on a suitable substitute that would be great.  Any help appreciated.

cheers...Allan

Do you know the specs of the transformer? I assume from what you've said that the primary is open? Have you looked to see if there's a thermal fuse? I've repaired several transformers that had the thermal fuse blown by a power surge.

alm:
The transformer will very likely have a grounded shield between primary and secondary to reduce capacitance to ground (check the schematics). In that case replacing it with a generic transformer would probably degrade performance. I'd try to fix the existing transformer first.
