I believe the negative carrier will be dictated by the chassis on which the CLS head sits. L184 vs L1840 vs FOTAR or other.
why then should Durst Pro specify that although the head can be mounted on all chassis, the old negative carriers do not work? I mean apart from selling more of the newer carriers

will a 1000w or 2000w lamp require a special timer? I read each timer has maximum watt specs, not sure if a timer with "500w max" label on the enlarger plug will work with a higher wattage lamp.
also, this is the rear of the EST 1000 unit, where do I connect the timer exactly? do I need special cables or this one will do the job?
thanks

Where it says Timer Input. Looks like its meant for 120 or 220 since the label says 100-240v but has a 120 plug. Looks like the green power cord you have is a 220 cord with a 120 plug male end, so it makes sense. The timer should be fine with the 1000W bulb; should be relayed in the EST. My 120 EST/TRA 301 used a 120 power feed, a 120 timer and a 220 fan. There were jumpers inside the unit to set the input voltage. Likely the same in the EST 1000, so check it! L

The 'timer input' of the EST1000 triggers the exposure sequence which includes bulb-preheat, shutter opening. I believe the Triacs in the unit control the lamp. I believe very little current flows through the 'timer input.' And, as indicated, the voltage to tirgger the exposure sequence can be quite variable (120 to 220V).
Andrea - a custom shim or baseplate could be made to fit any previous head, but there are apparently match limitations as-is.
Never mind. I found the bulb at bulbamerica.com. thanks.
