86475-S | Reliance Electric Rectifier Stack

The 86475-S Rectifier Stack is engineered to convert alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) by rectifying the intermittent reversal of current direction. The unit features two heat sinks, assembled back-to-back using two bolts, with an air gap between them. Mounted within this air gap are an SCR diode and metal oxide varistors. These components connect to a high-voltage capacitor situated at the top of one of the heat sink towers. One heat sink possesses a flat bottom edge, while the other has a curved flanged bottom with two pre-drilled holes near its center, enabling secure mounting of the rectifier stack.  

The 86475-S Rectifier Stack is a high-performance device designed for the efficient conversion of alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). This conversion process is essential for various industrial applications that require stable and reliable DC power. The rectifier stack is built with two heat sinks mounted back-to-back using two bolts. This design ensures optimal thermal management by allowing effective dissipation of heat generated during the rectification process. An air gap exists between the heat sinks, which further enhances the cooling efficiency and prevents overheating of the components.

Within the air gap, the rectifier stack houses critical components such as an SCR diode and metal oxide varistors. These components are strategically positioned to ensure maximum performance and protection. The SCR diode is responsible for the rectification process, converting AC to DC with high efficiency. The metal oxide varistors provide protection against voltage spikes and transients, ensuring the longevity and reliability of the device.

A high-voltage capacitor is positioned at the top of one of the heat sink towers. This capacitor plays a crucial role in smoothing out the DC output, reducing ripples and ensuring a stable and consistent power supply. The bottom design of the heat sinks is tailored for secure mounting and stability. One heat sink features a flat edge, while the other has a curved flanged bottom with two pre-drilled holes near its center. These pre-drilled holes are designed to facilitate easy and secure mounting of the rectifier stack in various industrial setups.

The overall design of the 86475-S Rectifier Stack emphasizes durability and ease of installation. The combination of high-quality components and robust construction ensures that the rectifier stack can withstand demanding industrial environments while providing reliable performance. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where dependable DC power is critical. Whether used in machinery, power supply systems, or other industrial applications, the 86475-S Rectifier Stack offers a reliable solution for AC to DC conversion, ensuring smooth and efficient operation.
