Hi, I try to reconstruct Bell&Howell 138 projector, model T (Academy). I'm looking for Photocell tube Philips 3534. Does anybody know if it's possible to purchase it somewhere? Maybe you have any information about other photocell type which can be replaced?

Looks to be the same as one I've got on eBay at the moment. Different make but if it is the same size then it will do the job as they are normally 90v.

Hi, thank you for your answers. I'll send you a technical data sheet and some pictures on your privat e-mail address. The high of that Photocell is max 88mm, the width - max. 28mm and pin high: 15,1 (4 pin). If those ebay auctions belonge to you could you check those dimensions? Thanks in advance!

Hello Michal
The pec I have listed is the same dimensions as you give except that I measure the height as 86mm plus the length of the pins 15mm, so a total height of 101mm.
The width is 28mm. I have measured only with a ruler so it is probably the same as the measurements you have given. It is in used condition but the white screen looks in very good condition with no blackening so looks to be very little used. Very much cheaper than the others you have been given.
Let me know if you are interested and I will work out a postage cost.

Hi Terry,
Yes, I'm interesting in your proposition. If you have 2 pcs of that photocell than I'll take them. Please send me all info concerning the total costs. Thanks in advance!
