Hi,
My old super 8mm projector blew a capacitor and I am struggling to find the right replacement.
The projector is a Yashica 8PC-N and is about 35 years old.
When it blew it had aluminium foil type material coming out of it.
I was wondering if you could help me.
It is marked as follows:
OIL
CP-C
.1uF
(M)
400WV
Does the WV mean working voltage or "Watt Volts"?
Does the CP-C mean anything?
What type of capacitor is this? crossover? electrolyte? both?
The second attachment is a photo of another capacitor which looks to be the same type but probably a different brand.
I have gone to my local electronics shop but was unable to find a suitable replacement.
Does the volt rating have to be exactly the same or can i just get one which is greater e.g. 600V
Any help you can give is very much appreciated.
Thanks
Joe
