Seller: wodgerwabbit ✉️ (2,169) 0%, Location: Daventry, GB, Ships to: EUROPE, Item: 123249949898 Philips PM3233 classic Oscilloscope Dual Channel Analogue 10MHz working.

Up for sale is a used Philips PM3233 classic 1980's dual channel oscilloscope.

As can be seen in the photos, it basically powers up and is functional on both channels.  

The CRT traces are sharp and well focused, but the traces are dim even on maximum intensity setting, suggesting the HV driver need s re-capping or some other problem. I've not attempted to diagnose or repair it.

The trigger circuitry is working well, as is the trigger level point.

The graticule light works fine. 

The 'A' channel select button doesn't always latch in/out, B channel switch is fine. 

The timebase, voltage sensitivity, position controls and cal.output all work ok and seem reasonably accurate given its age.

On one or two of the voltage sensitivity settings, something causes square waves edges to get rounded off.

The UK mains cable tidies away into a compartment under the rear of the scope.

Please examine the photos and ask any questions before bidding.

It is in good cosmetic condition for age, as shown. 

The service manual is available online and there are some useful videos on maintaining it :-

Due to age and above mentioned points, it is sold as-is.

 

It’s large and heavy, hence postage costs stated, but will be very well padded and packed. However, you are also welcome to collect by appointment, saving you the P&P charges, and saving us the 30+mins it will take to pack and the 30+mins time taken to book it with the courier and deliver it to their depot.

I do combine multiple purchases into one parcel to reduce post/packing costs, where possible. Often the cost of sending 2 or 3 items in one package is the same as sending just one, in which case there will be no extra post charges. But to be sure, email beforehand if considering multiple purchases.

COLLECTION

The buyer is welcome to collect by appointment. We’re based near J16 on the M1 / Northants.

POST / SHIPPING / PACKING

If dispatched it will be sent in a new oversized double-walled box with plenty of bubble wrap and padding and additional protection as needed depending on size and weight.   It will be sent out within 2 working days of cleared payment.

All items sent out will be by a tracked post/courier service needing a signature on delivery, the exact service depends on your location. The tracking information will be supplied once enroute.

At the buyers request I will send items using FEDEX or DHL for the ultimate delivery method with the buyer paying the additional costs.

Some items are very large and heavy and beyond our couriers weight limit, or physical strength of the boxing solutions we use, and in such cases this will be stated in the listing along with collection or other delivery options.

The shipping cost quoted is for “post and packaging costs” and reflects the fact that this item will be well packed using new materials in a sensible double walled box with masses of bubble and yards of wide poly-tape, and additional padding, with larger items often taking 20 to 40 minutes to pack and a further half hour for the round trip delivery to the couriers.

Please do NOT enter a bid on this item if you intend to quibble the cost of P&P after winning it. I will not send items in minimised packaging for the outright cheapest slowest method. Experience tells me this is a false economy …

SHIPPING TO REMOTE LOCATIONS

If you live in some far flung part of the World such as on an island, on a remote mountain top, or in a hollowed out volcano in the Pacific, then please let me know your location before you bid so I can obtain a quote for the likely increased costs of shipping. We normally ship via couriers like UPS or PF48 and some do have ‘remote location surcharges’ for certain out of the way places. Bear in mind that islands away from the mainland usually need additional shipping/air-fees. If in doubt, email me.

COMBINING MULTIPLE ITEMS / POST REDUCTIONS .. within limits.

I’m happy to combine items *where practical* to reduce postage/packaging costs, such as a large item along with a smaller item, but this won’t work for two very heavy items which will still need two packages due to their combined weight exceeding courier limits, or exceeding safe packaging limits.  For example it would be very unwise to try and box up two x 20kg devices in one large strong box to save money, when in fact the combined weight of 40kg would exceed all sensible limits and likely break the boxing no matter how well its wrapped, leading to damage and frustration. At this weight I would insist on (1) two packages, or (2) palletising, or (3) collection in person (4) custom delivery on a mileage basis if agreed in writing before you enter you bid.  If you are in doubt about this please email BEFORE bidding on two or more items.

PAYMENT

Item to be paid for by paypal, wire transfer or cash on collection within 48 hrs of auction end. If not completed within that time, I will either offer it to the 2nd highest bidder, or relist it and leave appropriate feedback.

PROBLEMS POST SALE
