The DC Power industry offered stand-alone 200, 400 and 800 ampere ferro-resonant rectifiers throughout the 1980s and 1990s. These legacy ferro-resonant rectifiers have since been discontinued by most manufacturers. The Ferro / SCR Retrofit Power Solution allows GE and third party legacy ferro-resonant or SCR rectifiers to be upgraded to modern energy-efficient switched mode rectifiers and controller technology while preserving existing cabling and distribution investments. Bolting patterns remain the same as well.
