HEWITTIC £c*nottol CINEMA RECTIFIERS During over 30 years in the manufacture of Cinema Rectifiers the Hackbridge and Hewittic Electric Company has also designed and manufactured over A MILLION KILOWATTS of large rectifier plant, much of it for the operation of big electric railway systems and heavy industrial plant such as electric cranes and steel mill drives. In fact, THE LARGEST PUMPLESS RECTIFIER IN THE WORLD is Hewittic built. The engineering experience and technical skill acquired in this larger field have been thoroughly applied in the manufacture of HEWITTIC CINEMA RECTIFIERS which, though smaller in size, are backed by this "big" experience.
