Author Topic: CFS / Rentec PM2000 triac Eric Robinson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 538 From: Santa Rosa, CA Registered: Jan 2005 posted 09-25-2011 08:06 PM                     Does anyone know the make model of the triac in the CFS Rentec PM2000 house dimmer control box. I found a diagram which showed: SC160D American Microsemiconductor Inc THYRISTOR MODULE,TRIAC Is this right? Or, is it a different one? Also, I'm going to replace the front panel POTs on the DM2000 but I was wondering if the pots are linear taper. I know the values are 25k(left) and 500k(right).  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-25-2011 08:38 PM                     Most Triac are interchangeable many use th BTA40400 or the teccor equivelent the only point to watch is the line load polarity as it may flicker if backwards  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-25-2011 09:15 PM                     I just pried 6 of those off the booth walls and tossed them.

I do have a large number of Kelmar dimmers available, though.
