PSU Recap

[Siegfried Meier]

Hey guys,

I'm going to be recapping our D&R supply - everything else has nearly been replaced, and the guy I bought it from only did the job partially, but with radial caps that don't fit.  However, I'm having a heck of a time finding axial caps that we need over at Mouser or Digikey.  Does anyone have a better source for these?  I need:

2 x 4700uF 50V
3 x 1500uF 63V
2 x 15000uF 50V

Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks!
Sig

You can always use higher voltage caps (I know trivia, but sometimes thats just the difference in searching vs. finding within digikey/mouser/farnell.....)

on the other hand, if size is a requirement, what lead spacing / diameter / height allowable?

To back audiomixer, how much space is there available fitting slightly higher spec caps? If any higher voltage option turns out too large for the case you can always turn a radial cap sideways. Secure it with some heatshrink and hot glue in a mission critical installation.

Based on the high capacitance I presume these are in a non-critical section of a PSU and the resulted slightly longer leads won't affect performance in any way.
