Default AR88s and PCBs

Bri wrote:

However it still leaves the problem of potential PCB contamination: did
they, or did they not use PCB's? If it is just mineral oil then there is no
problem, I'll either refill, or more likely remove and replace with modern
capacitors inside the can. It's the potential for PCB poisoning that
concerns me most at the moment.


If it says SAFETY or PYRANOL on it, it's got PCBs. When PCBs were popular,
they were considered such a wonderful thing that manufacturers would brag
about them on the case as using SAFETY OIL.
