Title: DM-33-A Dynamotor,brushes
Post by: SM6OID on July 07, 2020, 12:56:16 PM
Hi!

Anyone who has some spare brushes for me or know where to search?
The HV brushes are most important, the LV ones will work.
DM-33-A is the dynamotor for the BC-456 modulator for the SCR-274-N system.
So, if anyone happens to know of a source of brushes or complete DM-33-A or DY-8 dynamotors, let me know!

The things is that some of my command transmitters will be put on the air with original supply/modulator.

You might give them a call. I used to deal with them decades ago and they had a huge inventory. You may have to send them some info such as a picture and size etc..

No luck on that one here. i have a few DMs. One thing to know besides size is the diameter of the commutator since the brushes have to fit that as well.

There are brush seating stones but one must be careful not to over use them, as the commutator may need to be undercut again, to recede the mica separators.
