Powertron's MOSFET Controlled Plating Rectifier delivers a stable, low-ripple DC output for electroplating, anodizing and other electrochemical processes where surface finish quality depends on clean, well-regulated current. Output voltage runs from 0–12VDC up to 0–100VDC with current customised to your plating line, in a miniature footprint that suits space-constrained plating shops. This page covers features, specification, model options and how MOSFET control compares to diode, thyristor and IGBT alternatives.
The MOSFET Controlled Plating Rectifier converts AC mains to regulated DC using high-frequency MOSFET switching rather than line-frequency phase control. Switching at high frequency allows the built-in EMI filter to smooth the output far more effectively than a diode or thyristor stage alone, which is what gives this rectifier its comparatively low ripple at a given size.
Voltage and current are held stable across load and line variation, and the protection stage continuously monitors for short circuit, overload and overvoltage conditions, shutting the output down before a fault reaches the bath or plating line. Because MOSFET switching devices dissipate less heat than the components they replace, the same output current can be delivered from a smaller enclosure — which is why this rectifier is positioned as the miniature, high-efficiency option in Powertron's plating rectifier range.

Every MOSFET Controlled Plating Rectifier is built at Powertron India's own manufacturing facility in Wagle Estate, MIDC, Thane (Maharashtra), where design, winding, assembly, and testing are carried out in-house rather than outsourced. Units go through a documented quality process before dispatch, and Powertron holds ISO, CE, BIS, and GeM empanelment credentials, with manufacturing recognised under the Make in India and MSME programmes. Beyond Thane, Powertron supports customers through sales offices in Delhi, Pune, Hyderabad, Bengaluru and Tamil Nadu, and serves export markets through international sales offices in Dubai, Singapore and Malaysia. Post-installation, the same team that engineers the unit is available for commissioning support, spares, and after-sales service, so buyers are not left dealing with a reseller once the order ships.
Standard bands from 0–12VDC up to 0–100VDC, with current customised to your plating load.
MOSFET switching gives lower output ripple, tighter regulation and a smaller footprint for a given current rating, which benefits finish-sensitive plating processes.
Yes, each rectifier undergoes a 100% full-load burn-in test at rated current before it leaves the factory.
Short circuit, overload and overvoltage protection are standard on every unit.
Yes, output current is built to your specified load rather than offered only in fixed catalogue steps.
Yes, it's designed for continuous operation; confirm your duty cycle and cooling requirement when requesting a quotation.
Lower ripple generally supports more uniform current distribution across the part, which can improve deposition consistency and finish quality.
Yes, share the nameplate voltage and current of your existing unit and the team will recommend an equivalent or improved configuration.
