Default Neead a pair of handle index parts for an HP 833A SpectrumAnalyzer mainframe.

These attach to the carrying handle and let you adjust the position.
Need both the handle part and the chassis part.

The handle part is cylindrical and about an inch in diameter.
The chassis part is a rectangular square with machined rings in it.

Used condition fine.

Also need a new lid if the price is reasonable.


Many thanks,



Ebay has kits like that. Folks that insert equipment into rack
mounts and the like never use those kits and some of them are
smart enough to sell them. You can also buy it from HP as a kit,
but I assumed that you knew that already and posted looking for
a cheaper route. After spending not to many personal hours
looking though, you could have simply bought the HP kit.

Thanks for the tip, but this is the pivot for the tilt handle, and is
not involved in the rack mount stuff.

Also HP has discontinued all parts support for this item.
But possibly the same handle pivot is used on something newer.

I wouldn't bet on it. They don't discontinue an item, until it is
either NLA from their supplier, or every piece of equipment that used it
has dropped off the end of long term support. I can find no reference
to HP 833A, except for this message. IS that the right model number?

Oops 853A. pectrum analyzer mainframe.
Agilent shows no parts support except for a user manual.

The HP853A is a rack mount mainframe for the 8557A/8558A/8559A
spectrum analyzer plugins. I can't tell what you're trying to
accomplish, but if you want portable, swapping for the much more
common HP180A (smaller screen), HP181A (storage scope, small screen)
or HP182T (large screen, storage scope) mainframes might be a better
alternative to finding the case parts. I have one buried somewhere
that might work, but I'm not sure about mainframe compatibility to
your unspecified plugin.

Silly. Folks that do the rack installs have the HANDLE KIT as
surplus.

There are hundreds if not thousands of them out there.
