Plating Rectifiers |
|
|
|
| Most
of our customers manage to plate using a 6 or 12 volt
battery, or charger, and bulbs as a current control.
The Caswell Plating
Manual explains a variety of low cost ways to
obtain and control your plating power requirements.
However, these professional full wave
rectifiers, designed specifically for the job, will
enable the experienced plater to reach very tight tolerances
and controls, and are much more convenient than the
bulb method.

3 Amp Constant
Current Rectifier
Constant current/voltage
power control
This new system has the
latest technology for small plating and anodizing
operations. The constant current control is particularly
useful for anodizing using the Caswell LCD Anodizing
system.
Several of our plating
systems use small amounts of current, and if plating
parts with only a few square inches, this can
sometimes be a real problem to obtain accurate
current outputs from larger machines.
The system will operate comfortably at 1/10 of
an amp.
To operate:
For constant amperage control:
- Adjust the voltage knob to the maximum clockwise
position
- Switch the power ON
- Adjust the amps knob to the desired output
voltage
- Connect the plating tank to the unit
For constant voltage control
- Adjust the amperage knob to the maximum clockwise
position.
- Adjust the voltage knob to the minimum anti-clockwise
position.
- Switch the power ON.
- Connect the plating tank to the unit
- Adjust the voltage knob to the desired amperage
requirement
For restricted current protection:
- Switch the power ON.
- Adjust amperage knob to the maximum anti-clockwise
position.
- Adjust voltage knob to the desired voltage
position.
- Connect to the plating tank
- Adjust the amperage knob clockwise to set
the output current at the desired level for
restricted current protection.
In the event of a short circuit, at the output,
the current will limit at the value set by the
current controls, however the unit should be turned
off and the short circuit removed before continuing
use.
