1 Based on machine's configurations with an input voltage of 400VAC and an output voltage of 8(16)VDC.
   Value between ( ) refers to the max pulsed current or voltage.
2 Max pulsed current is up to 3 times the max DC current value.

PP - Pulse Plating (forward)
Rectifiers designed to handle forward pulsed output current with the possibility to create, via software, special mixed waveforms with DC & pulsed output current. These rectifiers are able to generate very fast and complex current and voltage patterns (repetitive sequence of pulses) where minimum pulse (phase) duration is 1ms.
Using these fast pulse patterns in combination with appropriate chemical products, remarkable improvements are obtained.


PPR - Pulse Plating Reverse (forward and reverse)
Rectifiers designed to handle forward and reverse pulsed output current, tailored for applications that require very fast polarity changes and pulse (phase) duration as low as 1ms.

In order to accomplish synchronized pulses, 2 machines can be networked in Master & Slave configuration, being able to perform in 2 different working modes: synchronous and asynchronous (pulses 180° out of phase). Nevertheless they can operate like normal DC machines.

These rectifiers, via software, are able to handle a current pattern of up to 6 phases (more phases on request).
