ELECTRO PLATING RECTIFIER
A very essential component for any industry, the electroplating
rectifier is an electronic device which converts high voltage
alternate current into low voltage direct current. The electroplating
rectifiers are available in a range from 1 Volt to 1000 Volts
suitable for various industrial applications such as electro-chemical
processes like anodizing, hydrogenation and more. The notional
range of these rectifiers covers a wide choice from 200 Amps to
15000 Amps at different output DC voltage as per requirement.
Electroplating is skilled technique accomplished through electro
deposition process. The entire process involves producing an outside
layer in a uniform manner on a surface of metal by the action
of electric current. Each type of rectifiers is equipped with
either single phase or three phase controlled devices classified
as per their rating. Normally, the rectifiers with a capacity
of 8V, 12V, 16V, 20Vand 24V are used in electroplating having
current rating of 500 Amp and beyond.
The principal specifications of electroplating rectifiers are
classified as Input voltage between 380-440 Volts. However, the
output voltage is usually fixed rated maximum DC and the temperature
rise is less than 45° C degree centigrade above ambient
at 100% load results in higher efficiency and lesser losses.
The electroplating rectifiers are extensively used in the metal
finishing industries that undertake the work of galvanizing, hydrogenation,
anodizing, copper, tin and chrome plating, precious metal coating
like gold, silver aluminum and all other electrochemical processes.
For different industrial applications, the range of rectifiers
available with various specifications and functional varieties
are known as full wave and half wave rectifier, Bridge Rectifier,
DC Rectifier, Transformer Rectifier and Silicon Rectifier.
The salient features of electrical rectifiers include maximum
output, space friendly and compact design, Power saver, maintenance
free, efficient performance and long lasting.
