AN ELECTROLYTIC APPARATUS COMPRISED OF A PLURALITY OF ELECTRIC CELLS CONNECTED IN SERIES TO AN ELECTROLYTIC POWER SOURCE AND OPERATING WITH A RATED CURRENT

摘要

PURPOSE: To prevent the trouble owing to the reverse current generated when the conduction of electricity to a part of electrolytic cells is stopped by connecting a resistor in parallel with the cell to be disconnected at the time of disconnecting part of the series operated electrolytic cells from their series while continuing the supply of electrolytic current. CONSTITUTION: A resistor 12 is connected in parallel to an electrolytic cell 2 which is a part of an electrolytic device 9 connected in series with multiple electrolytic cells 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Next electric current is flowed in the directions of A, B, C, D by closing a switch 13, and the reverse current flowing to the direction A from D generated at that time is less and the micro steady current flowing immediately to the direction D from A is obtained. During this time, care is taken of the cell 2[JP57094586A]
