Ripple measurement




I'm working at aerospace industry, we have phosphoric acid anodizing tanks and we are measuring periodically ripple voltage at the rectifier output. At full voltage (15-24 volt) we couldn't reduce the ripple voltage to % 5. Please describe that the ripple measuring procedure with oscilloscope and etc. devices.

Thanks.

Ripple is nothing more than the AC component of the electrical output of your rectifier. You REALLY need to get this as low as possible. Talk to your maintenance people and get an education on this. I suspect that what you need are new rectifiers.
