Need power cable for Hantarex Polo 1 33" monitor

[eastbayarb]

I have a Hantarex Polo 1 33" arcade monitor. Anyone know where I can get a power cable for it? I have attatched a picture of the back of it. I believe the reddish/brow connector (3 pin) is the connector for the power cable (the white one with the 6 metal teeth is the video connector, and the long white one to the right of that is the monitor adjustments)

You'll need the Amp brand connector and pins.  You could wire one up easily.

Ken Layton can likely tell you exactly what Mouser part number that is.

where can i get that? how do I get in touch with Ken Layton?

[SirPeale]

He's in here a lot; likely he'll chime in when he comes back to the forum.

Mouser (www.mouser.com) # 571-14807000 Tyco/AMP Universal Mate-N-Lock plug housing, 3 pin (21 cents each)

571-3505471 Contact male pin (9 cents each)

Remember if you remove the 571- prefix you have the actual AMP brand part number. Bob Roberts also sells these.

so it's 2 separate parts that I need  and do I need to solder them together? Will this be good for connecting my monitor to a standard 3 prong wall socket?

You only need one connector housing and 3 crimp terminal pins. These are not soldered. You crimp them with the special AMP brand crimper ($$$ pricey).

You crimp the pins onto the stripped ends of a grounded power cord. Then push the pins into the housing from the rear.

There's a little decal just below the power connector on your monitor chassis that details what the pinout of the power connector is. It shows from left to right:

"L" - "G" - "N"

"L" is line or AC hot (Black wire of power cord)

"G" is frame ground (Green wire of power cord)

"N" is AC neutral (White wire of power cord)

Hope this helps.

nobody sells the cable just ready to plug in?

[Ken Layton]

You might check with Bob Roberts. If he doesn't sell a ready made one then he could probably make one.

Hantarex monitors are officially distributed in the USA by www.belamny.com so it's possible you can get one from them ready made.

Wells-Gardner parts department sells # 038A7927-000 power cord assembly which I think will work in your monitor.

Yep, Bob does have it on his parts page:

http://www.therealbobroberts.net/parts.html

it is called a Midway Type 2 10' AC line cord $4.00

Here is a pic of it:


or get the socket and pins on his connector page:

http://www.therealbobroberts.net/conectas.html

it is called .084 Plug & receptacle 3 position w pins & sockets $1.00

But if you need an isolation transformer, the power cord will not work for you as is.
