I am not an electronics repairman or engineer, so please forgive any errors, dumb mistakes, etc. I have a repair project I would like to do.
Anyone know where I can get at least two or more 1970's Selenium Stud Diode/Rectifiers for a Schauer Battery Charger? The info on the side of the diodes says: AR004 G1. I do not have a schematic to determine anything more detailed than this info. I tried and Internet search for the schematic, but nothing turned up. I can provide pics of the inside if I am allowed to post them and then can figure out how to, but you all probably seen this before.
I telephoned Schauer Manufacturing Corp., but they are out of business. Some new company has purchased the Schauer name, and their rep told me that Schauer sold off everything and all the info is gone. The employees are gone, and the building was demolished. He has no idea where the parts went. He also said the real name was Japlar. But I can tell you this about the charger: The model is 0122-06 C6612. It is a 120 volt, 10 amp, manual charger, weighs about 10 lbs. There is no circuit board. There is a big heavy transformer (which I tested and it is good), an ammeter gage, a circuit breaker, a heat sink plate that had the two selenium stud rectifiers on it, and a 6/12 volt switch. That's all that I know from looking at it. A local electronics repairman told me that you cannot find these parts anymore. That got me even more depressed.
Thank you, diyer
