Title: Specs on choke Post by: W8ACR on March 02, 2012, 04:33:48 PM I've looked everywhere that I can think of, but I can't seem to find the specs on a Thordarson filter choke part number T16C22. It's an old one, probably late 30's or 40's. About 15 lb. Looks to be capable of about 400mA or so. I'm hoping it's a swinger. Can anybody help?
Thanks, Ron Title: Re: Specs on choke Post by: KA2DZT on March 03, 2012, 05:04:44 AM Ron,
The Thordarson T-16C22 is rated at 500ma, 5-20hys swinging choke, 70ohms, 3000V insulation, 25Lbs. The choke is shown to pair up with Thordarson's 16 series plate xfmrs, so it should be OK with 2-3KV DC.

Thanks again, Ron Title: Re: Specs on choke Post by: KE6DF on March 03, 2012, 10:40:29 AM I too would be interested in where the info came from.
I looked in every Thordarson catalog I had, and didn't see it. I have a similarly rated big Thordarson choke that was labeled as part of the Tru-Fidelity line. I can't find it's part number either, but fortunately mine had the specs on the tag. I'd really like to score a copy of the Thordarson Broadcast Catalog (500 I think is the catalog number) that has the Tru Fidelity stuff in it. Title: Re: Specs on choke Post by: KA2DZT on March 03, 2012, 12:26:48 PM The 16 series xfmrs are not in any of my Thordarson catalogs, but I have a single sheet with the 16 series. I must have downloaded it off the net somewhere, can't remember. I have many xfmr catalogs including the Tru Fidelity #500. AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
I need the catalogs to go with the 1000+ xfmrs I have. Let me know if you need any other xfmr info. I'll try to help. Fred |
