Author Topic: CFS NSP-3 Platter Manual Matt Close Expert Film Handler Posts: 226 From: Hervey Bay, QLD, Australia Registered: Sep 2001 posted 01-10-2006 06:59 PM                        Does anyone have a PDF of the manual for this piece of ? It looks very similar to the infamous Super Platter , but not exactly the same. If nobody has the manual, then would anyone know how interchangeble the parts between the Super Platter and the NSP-3 are?  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

Only the brain and disc hub design (the NSP's brains are removeable) and the discs (1/2" thick aluminum-covered honeycomb fiber with nylon bushings (prototypes) or dual needle bearings (production)), and the rollers (the smaller black or gray rollers compared to the SPP-3's white nylon rollers) are different. The wiring, variac, motors, and parts on the top of the brain are all the same, save for different color paint/plastic on some of the parts. FWIW, the two new NSP3s I had installed in 1996 came with the SPP-3 manual. Parts are still available from Dick Niccum at Lighting Images Technology. -Aaron  |  IP: Logged Matt Close Expert Film Handler Posts: 226 From: Hervey Bay, QLD, Australia Registered: Sep 2001 posted 01-12-2006 02:46 AM                        Thanks Aaron..... Are you saying the SPP brains aren't removeable??  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!
