Abstract
A high-voltage pulse generator with amplitudes up to 120 kV, front dur ation of 20 ns, repetition rate of 400 Hz, mean power released in a lo ad up to 50 kW, and operational life up to 10(10)-10(11) pulses is bas ed on low-inductance capacitive energy storages with a sheet-paper-oil dielectric and air spark gap switches with an increased operational l ife, and is powered with a 50-Hz single-phase voltage of 220 V. The ge nerator is intended for high-voltage-pulse disinfection of various foo dstuffs.
