High Power IGBT Rectification for Heavy Industry

The PE 5000 Series is designed and manufactured by Plating Electronic GmbH in Germany — one of the world's leading specialists in electrochemical power supply technology since 1987. It represents the top tier of IGBT rectifier capability for the most demanding high-current industrial applications.

With output current from 80A to well beyond 10,000A through custom cabinet configurations, the PE 5000 is engineered for large-scale electrowinning, industrial electroplating, green hydrogen electrolysis, and cathodic protection systems where continuous high-current output is essential.

Water cooling at high current ensures continuous duty operation in the harshest industrial environments. The sub-1% output ripple delivers superior deposit quality, and full Profinet IO/IRT, EtherCAT, and TCP/IP connectivity enables seamless integration with modern plant control systems.
