Have to fix my Dads vissionet and got in touch with RS Components I need you help to make sure I get the right ones. As they have gave me a couple to pick.

Hi Mr
Thank you for your inquiry re condensors. I suggest 470uF 16v 1084908 or
5478177, 1000uF 10v 3245111 or 493705, 220uF 25v 493777 or 5478290,
470uF 400v 3581827 or 3581978. All are in stock for next day delivery.
The first 3 types are sold in packets of 5.
Regards




470uF 16v 1084908 £1.23
1000uF 10v 3245111 £0.49
220uF 25v 493777 £0.35

Id start looking again m8!

Most of the pt numbers for the low voltage caps are for axial capacitors. You will need to get radial caps instead.

The 400v capacitor will have to be a capacitor with 2 pins; the pt numbers given are for 4 pin capacitors.

Just to show you the difference between axial and radial capacitors:

_http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolytic_capacitor

I bet you will find that all the capacitors you will need will be of the radial type.

And also get ones with a high temperature rating. Most capacitors are rated at 85c. Get capacitors that are rated at 105c.

Sorry this is well past me don't understand I thought RS Components would have know. I even sent a zip file with the picture of in side the STB with the ones that I needed.
