Side view of a salient-pole, synchronous 3,600 r.p.m. Rotary Spark Gap.
There are 12 rotary electrodes and 4 stationary electrodes. This gap produces 720
(mechanical) BPS. All electrode faces are 2 percent thorium alloy, 0.500"
diameter tungsten screw-in (replaceable) units.
Front view of a 3,600 r.p.m. synchronous Rotary Gap. Note the
double stationary electrode design. This gap was designed and manufactured by Tesla
Technology Research, in 1979. The 60 Hz A.C. input capacity is rated at 10 KW. The
dwell time (mechanical) for each commutation is approximately 100 usecs. The drive motor
may be configured for either 50/60 Hz. and 120/240 or 208 volt input and is a NEMA-56
class 1/2 h.p. unit.
