Not sure if the images below are going to work but here goes...
I have a blown up old capacitor... in the power supply of a beautiful, old turntable that I happened upon.
Plenty of specs written on the outside... 0.047UF, 250v, fo=5.8MHz, SND, Rita brand, -40/+85degC... hard shell plastic around can't really tell what inside... about 20x15x5mm.
I can find plenty of modern type caps with matching specs, as little as a dollar... I just don't know enough to decide whether to just get any old one or try for a specific type.
Like I said, the blown one I removed came from an inline wire possibly taking 240v from the transformer to a store unit... can't quite tell.
Care to comment?
