SH73 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Can someone identify this capacitor. It's on a PS1 power board. The top looks a bit bulge so I think need replacing . The power board fuse keeps blowing everytine I plug in the power supply. I think I may try to replace the capacitor once I have the correct one. Picture of capacitor and fuse space . Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan63 Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Probably worth sending a pic to Nichicon UK - trouble is it could be a special made for the ps board manufacturer, but their tech boys should be able to identify it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itu Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 Something from the printings: H9925 is most likely production year 1999 and week 25. 400 V is obvious. VZ series 39 microfarads?

TimR Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 As @itu states that model has a revision using 39uF and that would tie in with the 39 on the case. Not sure why there's not plastic sleeve on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why there's not plastic sleeve on it though. The plastic sleeve makes it harder to search, would a 49uf 400 volt work. Like this one.

Ignore the long skinny photo the cap is 12.5mm dia by 25mm high. See if that's a similar size to what you have.

Mine is 16mm by 20 mm, but looks like room to fit a 25 mm. £9.99 handling charge ,comes to nearly 14 quid 🤣 Edited May 14 by SH73 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
