Description

The high-voltage rectifier modernization, which is part of helium accelerator (PSS-4) high-frequency system, is described. The rectifier supplies the pulse modulator with direct current energy. The valves of the modulator used are mercury thyratrons. Modernization involves replacing thyratrons with semiconductor diodes. In the article, a comparative analysis of the parameters of thyratrons and diodes, which are supposed to be replaced by thyratrons, is carried out, and the expediency of such a replacement is substantiated.
