A mercury-arc valve or mercury-vapor rectifier or (UK) mercury-arc rectifier [1] [2] is a type of electrical rectifier used for converting high-voltage or high-current alternating current (AC
Mercury arc rectifiers come from an era where the worry of a bit of molten copper flying about was not considered very important.

The process is known as ally, rectifiers take a number of forms, including vacuum tube diodes, mercury-arc valves, copper and selenium oxide rectifiers, semiconductor diodes, silicon-controlled

() Marshall Morgan and・アンブ. UV lamps for sterilisation are low-pressure mercury-vapour lamps, which emit about 86% of their light at nm. This wavelength coincides well with one of the two peaks of the germicidal effectiveness curve (i.e. effectiveness for UV absorption by DNA). One of these peaks is /mercury-vapor-lamp.
The metal rectifiers, as compared to mercury arc rectifiers (a) operate on low temperatures (b) can operate on high voltages (c) can operate on heavy loads (d) give poor regulation (e) none of the above Ans: a.

Before the advent of solid-state devices, mercury arc rectifiers were one of the more efficient :// Mercury lamps need a certain voltage to start up the arcs, which have an electrode on each end. Once there is a full voltage running from the starting electrode to the main electrode, the argon gas begins to become ionized by the electrons and an arc is formed between two electrodes, like a :// Cathode Processes in the Mercury Arc Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed.
