Re: [time-nuts] Fw: 5065
The HP 5065A Rubidium Frequency Standard requires a circular 3 pin adapter
cable that can be plugged into 115V AC outlet.
I checked all cables I have and this particular cable is not finable. Can
the unit set to 110/220 V
Maybe this cable can be purchased or assembled ? ULRICH
Ulrich,
You can buy the MS connector from Digikey, Mouser, etc. Some practical time-nuts just rip out the expensive mil-spec connector and install a normal IEC connector. Or, if you're brave, just remove the bottom panel and use jumper wires to deliver 120 VAC directly to the pins. But, very important, make sure you've got the right pins.
See http://leapsecond.com/museum/hp5065a/conn.htm for details.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
Both good answers the old connect to the bottom, and my favorite get the
connector. I used both methods. Connected to the bottom, fixed the unit,
purchased the real connector. It was something like $18 or $30.
Search time nuts because 2 years ago someone figured out the model numbers
and source. Something like greybar as the supplier. The same connector also
works on the HP cesiums. I pulled the connector off but unfortunately no
useful numbers.
It can be strapped for either voltage and as suggested get the manual from
Artek.

Anywhere there is a concentration of HAMs you should be able to find the
connector. I found the one for my 5061 at a ham swapmeet and found another
for a friend by asking a few hams who were the 'collector' type.

Yes. Thats an original. But someone posted on time nuts an alternate to
amphenol and at a reasonable cost that was brand new. Thats how I came by
my sets.
I agree with Pete you do find them at hamfests in various condition.

Ulrich,
The connectors can be obtained reasonably inexpensively from Galco.
http://www.galco.com/shop/Circular-Connectors
They are a 3 pin circular connector, consisting of three parts, that are purchased as an 'insert', 'shell', and 'clamp', IIRC. I don't have the part numbers in front of me but they are the same for the 5061 Cesium standards.
I can get you the specific part numbers if you can't find it in the archives.
I used a spare 3 wire extension cord and just cut the end off the cord and installed the connector to mate with the 5065A and 5061A. I've been told that the wiring is different between the 5061A and some of the 5065A's but I've never found a 5065A that was different from my 5061A.
Might want to open the unit and make sure the wiring matches the schematic.
Good luck.
Joe

Most of the time I have seen the MS3106 style connectors used for power on
mil spec applications.
Does this one look like it is right?
http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Amphenol-Industrial/MS3106F14S-1S/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMv%2fye0hRulZR2pdaTIihrgU32yg4H0jMKs%3d
If so, you should be able to get it on the surplus market fairly cheap.

Tom

For those of us in Western Canada, I've purchased circular connectors at MRO electronics.
