Special build to order!
Gates Gatesway 80 Power supply
Here show PROTOTYPE 1 in Vintage Green with a British Power cord and 4 extra internal fuses.
As the (in Dutch) article on this site states, I helpt restoring an 70ties Gates Gatesway 80 broadcast console. Please read the Dutch article.
For this restoration I build a replacement Power supply. This replacement PSU with serial number 00000 was very positively received and wil be under live testing on the intended Gates Gatesway 80 Mono mixing console, during the Christmas holiday 2024.
Mean while I decided to build these supplies to order in Two versions.
Please keep in mind it is NOT an Original PSU but a Replacement, built to Order from Original specifications. I have no intensions for mass production nor do I intent to break copyright rules. There is no commercial intent in building these PSU. Therefor the PSU unit does look different then the original.
Build to Order so no “shelf live” and as a bonus I can personalize it to suite your taste! And it is BRAND NEW!
The “Gates” logo in the typ label is mend to make it very recognizable and there for clear for what use and apparatus is was constructed.
It Takes Time and effort to build these in a nice way!!!
What the original looks like
The original power supply is often lost during transition from active live to storage and final resell. And it seems they where made from Unobtainium. And it is almost impossible to find an original power supply.
Even Gates can not sell you a replacement supply.
This Replacement power supply ONLY fits the Harris/ Gates Gateway 80 MONO Broadcasting Mixing console.

Helaas bleek mijn vermoeden van de slechte lock haakjes correct. Waar de complete behuizing weer dicht wilde klikken hebben we dat zo gelaten. de anderen hebben we “dicht” een beetje ondersteund met zwart tape.
Onderdelen van de exacte juiste waarde en tolerantie besteld, Uiteraard van het merk Vishay, en Vishay Daloric. Dit is voor mij het “Go To” merk (samen met o.a. Panasonic) om hoogwaardige reparaties af te leveren voor de eigenaar
