High Power Transformer Rectifier Systems For Electro Winning and Metal Refining Applications

Added Benefits of Power Electronic Systems Supplied by Neeltran – Robust and Reliable Power to run your 24/7 processes.

At Neeltran, we design and manufacture our own transformer rectifiers and rectifiers in the same facility. Neeltran performs Full Current and Full Voltage factory testing of the transformer and rectifier in their actual configuration prior to shipment.

This combined testing to eliminate integration problems at the site and to assure the shortest commissioning time for your mining or electrowinning rectifier. This results in significant cost savings and produces the highest quality units.

Neeltran possesses multi-industry, engineering, and manufacturing experience that helps us to be flexible and design products that meet your specific technical and safety requirements. Neeltran offers oil cooled transformers with water cooled rectifiers as well as complete water cooled systems including the transformer which is a green solution as well as lower cost.

Markets served for electrowinning and metal refining dc power supply: Copper, Nickel, Zinc, Cobalt, Lithium and other non-ferrous metals that use electrolytic processes.

Rectiifer for mining product Range: 5 kA to 60 kA per 6 pulse unit, multi-pulse configurations with total process up to 270 kAdc available.
