Hi James,
I can confirm that the different ECL won't cause any compatibility issues.

Cheers,Mike

 Dear James

W1301840 is the part number the number after the slash is the serial number
and the type is the engineering change level.  MY guess is that the change
between 03 and 04 would not cause compatibility issues.

Hello everyone,I'm hoping to get some advice. We are running a Bruker 500 MHz
instrument about 25 years old. The ultrashield magnet has been
recently re-sealed and is performing well, But the Avance 500 console is nearing
the term of it's natural life, particularly with respect to amplifiers.

One of the amplifiers in the our current console is a BLAX300RS
(6-242MHz), part# W1301840/1225 type 04.Keen readers of this listserv may
have noted that similar amplifiers have been recently offered for interested
parties: BLAX300RS (6-242MHz), part# W1301840/0858 type 03 The part numbers
are the same (I don't know whether 1225 and 0858 indicate separate parts or
serial numbers).

The two "types" are superficially similar, although I assume that type 03 precedes
type 04.   My question is this: does anyone know to what extent these parts
might be interchangeable, and is the type 03 a useful backup against the inevitable
demise of our current (type 4) amplifier.

Any advice gratefully accepted.
Thank you
James
