Hello,

Following a measurement carried out with our Tracker 2800 on a capacitor that had not discharged, the resistors R112, R8 and R23 have burnt/exploded.

R8 seems to be a 100R resistor and R23 a 115R, unfortunately R112 is too damaged and it is impossible to read the value on it.

Would anyone be able to give the value of this resistor and confirmed the two others ?

Thanks !

Hi
Doesn't the input circuit for the two channels repeat itself?

Welcome to the Huntron Users Forum, Technician!

R112 is 1Kohms, 1 watt, 5%.
R8 is 100 ohms, .75W, 1%.
R23 is 115 ohms, .75W, 1%.

R8 and R23 are in parallel and tie to K41, so check that relay as well.

Hi,

Thanks for your quick answer.

Have a nice day!

Hi,

After the resistances and relay replacement the tracker is half working.

If I push on the "Menu" button and select on the screen "control" "2000" "Low", the tracker works fine.

If I changed the "low"mode with "MED1" or "MED2", a low resistance value close to short-circuit appears on the display. (picture 1)

The same problem appears with manual settings when i push the 15 or 20V button (picture 3)

When I launch a diagnostic analysis of "all", the tracker keeps blocked on this screen (picture 4).*

Can you please help me to find a solution ?

Thanks in advance.

If Channel A was being used when the charged cap was tested then relays K48 and K2 (located by the banana jacks) would have been closed and possibly damaged. K1 and K27 could also be damaged. Also check D6, D7 located on the top side near the relays. Check R103 (1K) and R102 (1K) located on the bottom. U16 could also be damaged (large 7 pin OPA551).
