arfur mo Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 hi all, on metal cased scanny's (and others), i have fitted washers to the transformer lugs, they are only thin tin so the washer's adds firmness and reduces the noise. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

luggsey Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 ...... and the voltage doesn't help. The tranny's are all 230 volt rated and we quite often get 245 or more in my area. Drops a bit when the milking machines start up!

luggsey Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Nah, it's when they switch the lighthouse on.

luggsey Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 No. Apparently Scantronic don't make lighthouses... I was going to be really clever then and remember the scanny code to test the strobe (lighthouse??) but I forgot it, it was a while ago! I like the way scanny stuff kept the same codes from the 91/96/98 etc, shame I can't remember um! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Life is like a box of chocolates, some bugger always gets the nice ones!

brizee Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 same prob here. 20% buzz. psu tight , solid fixings to wall etc, wont use em anymore. Had another problem using eol method, if its used on smokes or pa's you get a tamper sometimes three days later,although often sooner. You automatically think its a fault and check everything only for it to happen again. Cooper deny the fault totally. Ive had many occcasions when mates have fitted them and I always laugh when they say theyve used eol , as soon as smoke or pa is mentioned i get the fiver out, never fails . If you gotta use em double pole em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
