Dan Gruner Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Does anybody have a circuit diagram or a link handy for the Strand Permus dimmer racks, namely for the dimming module cards inside, what is the part number for the thyristors on the dimmer cards? Likewise, I require recommendation for a good source of spare parts! Many thanks, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMC Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 If I recall, the modules in a Permus rack are the same as those in Tempus. I know it's not much help, but it widens the field a little bit. Try contacting andy syposz at white light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Hampson Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Regarding the circuit diagram for the Permus have a look at the Strand archive, I had a similar problem and manged to get diagrams by posting on their 'message board' however I'm sure most of the posters are also members here as well, I was going to send you the diagrams I had but I've just realised they were for a Perma12, rather than a Permus 12 (the one based on Mini2) The best place for spares is unfortunately other Tempus or Perma racks that have bit the dust, there are still a lot of these racks out there in schools and when the inevitable happens and one of the things catch fire, the school usually throw the rest of the fleet out and replace the lot. 5A Tempus's tend to pop up on Ebay quite often, and the dimmer cards are all the same. Whie you are there, have a look on the links section of Strand archive, there are quite a few companies selling old stock /original spares.
