Finally Found An Image Of My Rectifier Diodes
Unable to post images so this will do.
Weight 2.10 pounds
Amperes 1,270
Peak Inverse Voltage 1,675
The braided leads are 2/0 cable.
The terminal hole is .500"
The stud diameter is 15/16"
1-9/16" across the nut's flats.
Weight of copper in each polarity heat sink 14.0+ lbs. The sheet laminations were soldered with 100% silver. I used around 2.3 pounds for six heat sinks.
Size of both polarity heat sinks -- two microwave ovens, stacked.
But they have an easy life. The charger is only 510 amperes, the Niehoff alternator is 400 amps, and the Delco 50DN alternator a piddly 385 (all at 28 volts).
