[NJARC] FW: Hulking Low Voltage Supplies Correction

[Goulart, Stephen F (Steve), ALABS]

Hi
I finally got hold of one of these. It is a military 19' rack mounted 2-36 VDC 15 Amp regulated supply. There is a muffin fan on the regulator stack and it seems reasonably recent maybe late 80's as a guess. Weight is about 50 lbs. It has front and rear panel output connections the ones on back have sense leads. There is no current regulation. 

The one I got worked but was as described, ugly. The rack panel was bent down on the top edge damaging both meters. I bent the panel sort of flat and tested the supply. For looks you could pull the panel and hammer it flat and repaint it. Replacing the meters should be easy since there are round holes in the panels. If anyone needs a brute strength bench supply these seem reasonable for the $10 each. Obviously I cannot say if the rest are also working but I know Kenny didn't test the one I got. 

Kenny is located somewhere near Infoage (Wall Township) as a point of reference. He would prefer to sell them all I think there are 10 left.

I haven't seen these but they are described as military, regulated (but not adjustable) 50 volt 15 amp supplies, rack mounted about 75 lbs apiece. Most of the meters are cracked but they have all other parts including "large heat sinks". My contact has about 10 of them (buy all at $10 each).
