Lately a new tvpe of rectifitr. the Raytheon tubs. has been davaloped which far surpasses all pre. vious methods for use in "R hattery eliminators where high voltages and rather heavy current capacity are re. | quired. This new method involves the use of compartments filled with helium &as In which negative and positive | eldctrodes are placed. The tube works on the principle of fonization of a gas to préduce conduction. The ionization takes place when a high voltage is applied to electrodes | The vibrating rectifier is a very| éfMcient type for battery charging. It has few moving parts, which are re. placeable at very low cost. It does not use bulbs. which are subject to bréakage, and with filaments that may burn out, thus requiring an ex- pensive replacement cost. It is dura- ble, easy to adjust, reliahle, gives tapering charge. i= eamy to connect becauss ite terminals cAn he connect. | ed with a battery alther wav without regard to positive or negative ter Has Antomatic Switch. The fundamental principle aration of the mechanical vibration type of ractifier ia that of an auto- matic reversing switch consisting of A transformeér to step down the voltage to the desired amount, and a vibrating ‘armature which connects the battery with the proper terminals of the transformer to produce a cur- rent flow through the batter proper direction. As soon as the cur- rent starts to flow in the opposite direction the ewitch reverses and con- nects the battery in the proper method to cause the other half of the cycle to flow through the battery in the proper direction, rather than in the opposite *direction. The ‘“‘homecharger” is probably the best known of this type of rectifier and charger. While this type of rec- tifier is suitable for use in charging batteries, its sparking contacts and slight variation of adjustment makes it unsuitable for use in “B" battery eliminators, where the action must | be as smooth and constant as pos- SEE Brutes of op. | PAGES 18 AND 19 Radio Broadcast Station WMAL See Our Stock of Radios 4 It embraces the finest radios made—R.
