GD Rectifiers work closely with API Capacitors to design and manufacture custom designed capacitors.
API Capacitors’ range of filter, snubber and energy storage capacitors service the professional markets of traction, industrial drives, power conditioning and avionics amongst others, while capacitors from the discharge range are used in medical, plasma and pulsed power applications. All these high quality, technically advanced capacitors are in use worldwide in a multitude of diverse situations.
Typical customers include multinational companies from power transmission and generation, well known manufacturers of passenger and mass transit trains, research institutions such as CERN and familiar producers of all-electric and hybrid vehicles.
Propulsion and auxiliary inverters for railway traction, marine and avionic applications, static frequency converters, renewable energy systems for local and HVDC transmission.
AC traction inverter output filters, high power UPS input and output filters, multiphase marine propulsion drives, specialized power factor correction.
Thyristor bridges for AC/DC conversion, active front end rectifiers, GTO and IGCT based inverters, high power IGBT applications.
High reliability, single and switched multi-element assemblies for AC resonant railway signaling applications.
Particle physics and plasma research, pulsed laser discharge, lithotripters, industrial and aviation turbine ignition.
Most capacitors are made to order, in each category many aspects of the design and build can be easily modified to fit a precise application.
