There are compatible Versions from different manufacturers, but most manufacturers are gone in the meantime, nobody want's to look at a CRT anymore... As most of us, I'm in "historical computers"..and there are several 8-Bit machines that wants to be connected to an CRT Monitor with some TV related Video input. I have rescued some small 12" industrial-TV monitors from the dumpster years before und when I needed one lately I had to fiddle with a defective FBT first. There are 10pin and 8 pin versions and there are deflection coils with different impedances, mostly the monitors are to be operated with 12VDC, but I think in your case I've read something like 28VDC as the operating voltage of the horizontal output Stage. My Monitor is working again, I've fitted an 10 pin variant FBT into the 8 holes on the board..with some wire bridges. I've searched on the hrdiemen.com Webpage, often there es at least an raw schematic how the coils in ther 2nd source transformers are connected..and I've crawled trough several monitor schematics to make the refit work. My Monitor was an chinese model, clearly there is no schematic available at all...but it can be done. After the repair I've got 3 small FBTs and 2 deflection coils fromy ebay for $10, must I say that 2 compatible FBT where in the ebay goods? I think not...its murphy... HR Diemens Website has had better times before..don't know how long they will last. As far as I know there is no direct replacement for your Vaxmate, I've looked there for that. You are on your own..sadly as it is. FBTs from former GDR "Robotron" monitors are all failing now if they aren't already bad for years. There is an issue with the used potting material of the HV coil, it shrinks and gets cracks..humidty is diffusing in and that builds vinegar in conjunction with the for isolation used polyacetate foil. There are many people that therefore rewound the hv coil on her own, it can work..but it is a job for somebody that eats small childrens. Regards, Holm -- Technik Service u.
