• Model: Electronic Horizontal Card Sorter - Lochkarten Sortiermaschine 82, 082 - IBM; Armonk, N.Y.

• Shape
• Boatanchor (heavy military or commercial set >20 kg).

• Dimensions (WHD)
• 1500 x 1110 x 410 mm / 59.1 x 43.7 x 16.1 inch

• Notes

• The basic operation of a card sorter is to take a punched card, examine a single column, and place the card into a selected pocket. There are twelve rows on a punched card, and thirteen pockets in the sorter; one pocket is for blanks, rejects, and errors.

  IBM 82 sorts cards at 650/minute

  Height with card counter 1.23m

  There were 3 different power supply units to choose from:
  DC: 110 V; 220 V
  AC 1 phase: 110 V; 190 V; 220 V; 240 V
  AC 3 phases: 110 V; 190 V; 220 V; 240 V; 380 V
  The values of the resistors and capacitors depend on the available mains voltage, see file IBM_082_parts.

  Note that the model name started as 82, but was later changed to 082 to avoid confusion.

  Models for Europe are made in Great Britain.
  The schema schows also the 60 cps power supply for machines made in USA for use in America.
