Unknown component...
« on: May 08, 2024, 09:14:19 AM »
This is in an elma antimag demagnetizer.
I think it is just a pair of diodes. But I'd like to be sure. It has 3 terminals and measures about 5Mohm both forward and reverse across each supposed diode.

looks like some kind of rectum frier to me .

Have you a diode test setting on your multimeter?  if so you should be able to read the forward voltage and check each diode.

I do, but it is effectively open circuit.
(ie, I think it is dead). Drawing out the circuit to make sure diodes make sense.
(not some odd scr or other complexity)
