change ps 613u pots

Recommended Posts

i acquired a non-working ps 613u power supply
two 2200uf caps had exploded
i replaced them and it appears to be working
my complaint is the voltage and current pots are very sensitive
it's near impossible to adjust them with any precision
i'm thinking to replace them with multi-turn pots
is this a good idea or a waste of time

Multi-turn pots makes it slow to make adjustments. As Vellerman did not use them perhaps you could replace the pots with good ones like Allen-Bradley pots. Beware  of the various tapers that pots have.  Check Ebay for good prices on Allen-Bradley pots from US suppliers.
