Title: Zen Kit #1 Substitutions Post by Fernando on 01/07/19 at 15:13:22 Hi All. I’m attempting to build the Zen kit 1. I have most of the parts but some are not available at mouser, so I was wondering if certain substitutions would be ok. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sub 1 Ohmite Resistor; Wirewound; Res 10 Kilohms; Pwr-Rtg 5 W; Tol 5%; Axial; Silicone-Ceramic for Mouser #: 280-CR5-10K-RC Mfr. #: 280-CR5-10K-RC Sub 2 NTE Electronics, Inc. RECTIFIER SILICON PRV=1000V IF=1.0A DO-41 CASE Manufacturer #: NTE125 Allied Stock #: 70214781 For Mouser #: 625-RGP10M-E3 Mfr. #: RGP10M-E3/54 Sub 3 Ohmite Resistor; Wirewound; Res 150 Ohms; Pwr-Rtg5 W; Tol 5%; Axial; Vitreous Enamel for Mouser #: 71-CP0005150R0JE14 Mfr. #: CP0005150R0JE14 Does anyone foresee any problems? Thanks. I'm using the Allied website to look for replacements as they seem to have the rest of what I need in stock. |
Title: Re: Zen Kit #1 Substitutions Post by dank on 01/08/19 at 15:03:43 The diodes can be (are) 1N4007. Any 1n4007 should work fine. Many available at Mouser under a quarter. The resistor substitutions look fine. |

Title: Re: Zen Kit #1 Substitutions Post by benlefebvre on 01/11/19 at 13:33:39 I would also sub the 1k 6W resistor with a 1k 50W resisitor. Steve made that swap in later models and it fits right in - I did that swap on my ZKIT1 after the original 6W got way hot. You’ll have to put the 50W off the PCB board if you do that swap, however - it’s pretty big. It should actually be screwed into the chassis. Mouser #: 71-NH0501K000FE02 |
Title: Re: Zen Kit #1 Substitutions Post by Fernando on 01/15/19 at 23:21:12 So I have the listed parts and substitutions for parts that are not in stock. benlefebvre mentioned above that I should replace the 1k 6W resistor with a 1k 50W one. Anyone else has any suggestions for upgrades or replacements that I should consider and what are they? |
