I guess the adapter only supplies a pre-amp.
Just try a standard one, but TAKE CARE FOR CORRECT POLARITY!!!

Hi
Would appreciate some advice on the above. The adapter was part of a "Dual
record deck" (CS455). Unfortunately the adapter cable was damaged and it

no

longer works. Does anyone know what one I could use as a replacement for

the

"Dual deck"?

The information on the AC Adapter is:
Input: 230V~ +-10%/50Hz/1VA
Output: 12V-/20mA
Type: FW3099

Thank you
Vic

20 mA does not seem enough to run a disco unit. Are you sure about the
output current.
You need to tell us if the output is AC or DC and if DC if it is regulated
or not.
Describe the symbol immediately after the output rating, is it a solid line
with a dotted line underneath?


Hi Graham
Thanks for answering. For some unknown reason my question is not
showing up in outlook express (newsgroups) so have had to sign up with
Google and do it from there. Hope you are able to view this reply.

Its not a disco unit just an ordinary record deck. Part of a seperates
system. The 20mA is correct.


You need to tell us if the output is AC or DC and if DC if it is

regulated

or not.


No information on the adapter to say if its AC or DC / Regulated or
not. It came with the deck (provided by Dual) I would imagine that its
AC as its use is to be used from a house circuit to cut the voltage
from 230v to 12v. You would probably know better.


Describe the symbol immediately after the output rating, is it a

solid line
with a dotted line underneath?

Yes. To confirm,

Input: 230V~+-10%/50Hz/1VA

(The Plus+ sign before the 10% is placed above the Minus- sign)

Output: 12V-/20mA

(The Minus- sign after the 12V is placed above 3 dots...)

The only other information on the adapter is as follows:

285418
NS/349/12345/K/601315
IP20
FWGB
Made in Germany to BS6301
Indoor use only

It can be taken apart as it is fixed together by two screws. There is
no other information on the inside.

Appreciate your help
Vic
