An example of a selenium rectifier stack number is shown at the bottom of the chart. Decoded, this number means that the stack has the following characteristics: The assembly is forced-air cooled (F prefix), the cells are 5 by 6 inches (code S), they have a 33 volt rating, they are Hi-Density type, they are circuited as a single-phase bridge (code B), and two of them are used in …

One side of the selenium rectifier will be marked with a plus (+). The new rectifier will replace the old one, but the striped end goes to where the + end of the selenium was. By process of elimination, the unstriped end goes to where the other selenium rectifier lead was. The selenium rectifier should be discarded.

Per Wikipedia, "A selenium rectifier is a type of metal rectifier, invented in 1933. They were used to replace vacuum tube rectifiers in power supplies for electronic equipment, and in high current battery charger applications. The photoelectric and rectifying properties of selenium were observed by C. E. Fitts around 1886 but practical ...

A selenium rectifier typically consists of a number of disks on a common insulated shaft. What you are seeing is probably the configuration of a number of separate disk stacks with interconnections to form a two or four diode bridge. There is a connection between the two end wires because the stack ends that must be connected are not adjacent.

There are some good threads on how to replace a selenium rectifier to silicon bridge rectifier, with four snubbing capacitors, and a dropping resistor (possibly with a capacitor instead). The color television of the 1960's owes its presence to the use of the 1N4007 diode. By then the majority of electronics manufacturers abandoned selenium ...

The Selenium-Rectifier has a lot of Internal-Resistance as well as a substantial Forward-Voltage-Drop. This "old-style" "Power-Supply-System" depends upon this Resistance for Filtering. You basically have 2 RC Filters in series. When You change-over to a Silicon-Rectifier You will be eliminating the Resistor in the first Filter,

A selenium rectifier is a type of metal rectifier, invented in 1933. They were used in power supplies for electronic equipment and in high-current battery-charger applications until they were superseded by silicon diode rectifiers in the late 1960s. The arrival of the alternator in some automobiles was the result of compact, low-cost, high-current silicon rectifiers. These units …

The suggestion is that if the original circuit didn't have the Zener diode, then simply replacing the Selenium rectifier with a modern Silicon rectifier would be fine. But the original circuit has a Zener diode to act as a voltage regulator, and the parasitic resistance of the rectifier limits the current flowing through the Zener. ...
