Outline
The AMC+250 mixer amplifier and AMC+250P booster amplifier have experienced a higher than acceptable
incidences of mains fuse failures at turn on.
Known Issue
Mains fuse failure.
Details
The cause of the issue has been identified as the mains fuse used in production being of a rating that is too low
for use in areas that encounter elevated mains voltages.
Solution
The problem can easily be rectified by placing the existing mains fuse as follows:
115V Operation:
T8A 250V slow-blow ceramic HRC type M205 fuse (20 x 5mm).
230V Operation:
T4A 250V slow-blow ceramic HRC type M205 fuse (20 x 5mm).
Procedure
1. Remove the mains lead from the amplifier.
2. Remove the fuse holder drawer that is part of the IEC mains input socket.
3. Remove the two existing fuses (one of these is a spare fuse).
4. Install two M205 size fuses as per the operating voltage above.
5. Reinstall the drawer.
