BULLETIN # 909
MODEL: TS-940S
SUBJECT: AVR Unit Capacitor Change 


In those areas of the country that are subject to large poer line voltage
fluctuations, excessive voltage may be applied to capacitor C12 on the AVR
Unit (X43-1500-00).  These voltage fluctuations might exceed the capacitor
breakdown voltage.  Replacing capacitor C12 with a capacitor having a
higher breakdown voltage will help prevent this potential problem.

Procedure:

On the AVR Unit change C12 from a 6800 uF capacitor to a 5600 uF 25V
capacitor (C90-2037-05).

Time required for this modification is 1 hour or less.
