Thank you! I tried googleing it and I can't seem to ind adpaters. Would you happen o have advice on what Ican do to make this a normal connection?

I do not understand what kind of adapter you are looking for. You got one connector. What about the compatible counter-part? In case that is missing you would need the original part, but no adapter.

Anyway, if at some connection one of the connectors is lacking and no identical substitute is available, then the remedy is to take off the resting one and mount at both sides new connectors from a different system that will fit in number of poles, voltage and current they can take and size so that an built-in part (if so) can mounted.

Did you mean 23DGA? If so, it appears that you want a Beseler #8191 power supply. This is what it looks like:

Unless you are prepared to take on a fix-it project, might have to be patient and wait for a working unit to appear.

No adapter needed. Plug straight into the power supply.

For clarity, you cannot plug that head into a wall socket. It requires a different voltage and current. There needs to be a voltage and current altering power supply in between the wall socket and that head.

Yeah, I think it's a 24 V transformer . Especially the 23 series had several different heads

Thank you guys - I'll google to see if I Can see what I need to buy. IF anyone know exactly what I need pelase link me

As you should have seen from this thread your request is confusing.

You still did not make clear to what apparatus your connector leads/led and to what apparatus/connector you want to "adapt" it to.

I live in new york. Iwant to plug my enlager into a wall and use it to make photographic prints like any other enlarger

Then seemingly you overlooked posts #5 and #7.

If you adapt that plug to an AC plug and connect it to wall current, you will burn your house/apartment to the ground or electrocute yourself.

You need a power supply/adapter as stated in the above comments.

yeah, I saw ti but I didn't see any outlet on it that matched the plug I had so wasn't sure if this was thr giht part - just seemd like it was in the ball park but wanted to know the exac piece sO i don'tmake a mistake buying from ebay

and yeah once I saw that it needed some kinda transformer I was like nah I can't mess with this. I'm trying to build a drying cabinet with three - 5 bulbs in it (for heat) and had some connections blow so I'm very aware and afraid of electricity (hiring an electrician to finish the circuit for me)

If anyoone here happens to be an electrician and can help me to make a working parallel circut please let me know and maybe w can call/facetime and I can venmo you for your time

You really don't need that much heat to dry film. You are probably just tripping a breaker from too much current draw, but you don't state how many watts each bulb draws. A simple 100 watt incandescent bulb with a muffin fan (computer rack AC fan) drawing air through a paper filter (think furnace filter) should be more than enough. In fact, if you dry film too fast, it curls like a monster.

Yeah I heard it has to be dried at a particular temperature range - I have a drying cabinet I've already made that uses one bulb and one fan and it's great. But I run an small business and the amount of rolls I'm starting to get has increased and sometimes the film does not dry in time. So I've created a film dryer that's 3 times the size so I feel like 3 - 5 bulbs isn't over kill (three fans too).

I noticed the circut breaks at the point where my switch wire (roughly 14-16 guage) meets my other wire (12 guage) so maybe you're right about the current? If I use all the same guage would that prevent the sparking?

Go ahead and hire the electrician; I don't feel comfortable giving advice without knowing all the particulars.

Besides, if it's for a business, you need the certified electrician to satisfy insurance claims should any damage to your facility occur.
