Rectifier - Half Wave ·Rectifier
Directly heated mercury-vapor half-wave rectifier for high-voltage supplies. Its massive filament, low arc voltage, and specified cathode preheating support roughly ten amperes of output.
Mercury-vapor half-wave rectifier for high-voltage rectifier circuits, with a 60-second cathode heating requirement and 15 V anode drop.
