Can someone have a look inside their Braun Km32 mixer by undoing the base and let me know what is written on the cylindrical electrical component (a triple capacitor about an inch and a half long) near where the mains input lead comes in. It connects into the terminal block and also has a couple of red leads attached. Mine has failed and i can only read part of the details (0.2uF + 2x .........) but I can't read the rest and I need to find a replacement

Thanks very much for the information Doug - I have followed it up and found a really good spares source. Dieter Kohler in Germany. He seems to have everything and comes up on german ebay. thanks again. Problem solved.

Hi Dr. Ralph.I will type in the info as it appears on the part in my mixer ,top to bottom. I'll use an * for an ohms sign and a ? for missing info.

10022B/24

0.2uF+2x0.002uFb b has a circle around it?

+Entiadewid.3?*

220V~0/+70C Last two numbers are a guess

fo:1.6MHz 65.2

560-1-2-7

measures 3.2cm long x 2cm dia

Hope this is what your looking for.

Good Luck,Doug

Thank you : help would be much appreciated. On my machine the component is 4cm long, 2cm diameter and has text which reads something like 0.2uF + 2x ... and 250V 4A HPF Under that there is a triangular symbol and the number 560- ? (possibly 7), plus small numbers 1.77 alongside. As well as the two red connectors another lead connects to the motor frame. What is yours like ? Would a photo help ? if you wish you can use email
