Help finding parts to fix my amp.

[hondakilla98 29]

I have a friend that's willing to work on a damaged eclipse 3242 that I have. He needs parts and can't find what he needs in the US. Here's the email I got from him, which is all Greek to me. If you know of a place to get these in the US let me know. Or if you know of an equivalent part I can use instead, that would be great.

Hey Mospec is the company name. From what I found its a russian company that might not be arround anymore. I found a company that has F20C10A and F20C10C and the spec's say they are the same. but im not fully sure....both are SwitchMode Dual Fast Recovery Power Rectifier, 200V ,12A, 65c -150c, 3pin TO-220AB I.C's.

You need 2 of each just to make sure...

 

Mospec F12C10A

Mospec F12C10C

 

When I get home I'll post up a PDF file with specs he also sent me.

Mouser, digikey...

Ask them directly about what part you need.

Is he replacing only what looks obviously broken ?

he checked two places online today, but hasn't physically called anywhere. He checked mouser and norvac. I'll have him try digikey. And yes he's just replacing what is physically damaged. I've had him repair three or four amps in the paste said he found the parts in Singapore for $8 each + shipping and a month wait.

Look for some datasheets, call a specialised component shop and tell them the specifications you need to meet.

Very weird to see the power rectifiers go. Make sure your friend knows what he is getting into even though he fixed other amps for you. It's worse to screw up something even more.
