Vintage RAF ammeter wanted
RAF 10A/13475 2.25" square ammeter wanted. Required to replace a broken one on museum display equipment so does not need to be serviceable. Picture attached.

Re: Vintage RAF ammeter wanted
If you get one in the same casing but different scale, you can always move the innards over.

Re: Vintage RAF ammeter wanted
Yes that is an option. Hopefully someone will have a casing or a complete unit.

Re: Vintage RAF ammeter wanted
If you get stuck I have these, I think the one on the left is the style that you need. You would have to change its guts. FOC just pay postage, let it run for a while in case someone has the right item.

Re: Vintage RAF ammeter wanted
Thank you for the reply and yes that is the one. Its simple to change the internals so I will accept your kind offer as we need the meter installed asap. I will PM my address.

Re: Vintage RAF ammeter wanted
I have this meter, it's a 5mA scale though. It does look the same in every other respect. It only has one retaining screw at the back but as David said would be perfect to transplant your movement into the case, or just swop dials/scale plates.
If not Shaun AKA manuels had loads of meters FS recently,this is where this came from, he may have what you want & a 300v meter that you were after elsewhere. Andy.

Re: Vintage RAF ammeter wanted
60 oldjohn. The meter arrived today and I have fitted the innards from the broken meter with no problems. Many thanks for the help.
