| Tunable inductor for Moog Theremin |
| (1/1) |
| EugenioN:
I've got a Moog Theremin and I need to replace this tunable inductor because its ferrite core is cracked and can't be rotate: It's a SLOT TEN5-10 from Coilcraft: https://www.coilcraft.com/getmedia/90724f9c-b8a9-4867-9507-a749f251f08c/slot10.pdf 47uH nominal (20uH-60uH range) with a fairly low Q=32. Unfortunately I can't find it: it was quite uncommon at its heyday, discontinued by manufacturer and no longer available. No one is selling nos parts on ebay (Europe). Any suggestion? |

Do not be to fussy Usually sumthing that is ruffly the same will work , even if you just swap the slug out of one of the following you should be ok https://au.mouser.com/c/passive-components/inductors-chokes-coils/variable-inductors/?inductance=450%20nH~~550%20nH&instock=y&rp=passive-components%2Finductors-chokes-coils%2Fvariable-inductors%7C~Inductance |

Yea, I've been definitely to fussy :-DD Just bought a new tunable inductor like this one: Removed the wire and cut away the base with pins, the ferrite core and its plastic sleeve fits perfectly inside the original tunable inductor. The inductance range is close enough :-+ Great advice, thank you! |
