Here are the specs from RCA Solid State Databook SSD-206, page 353:
Peak Reverse volts, Repetitive ....................... 3000
Peak Reverse Volts, Non-repetitive ................... 7200
RMS Supply volts ..................................... 4240
DC Blocking Volts .................................... 6000
Number of Cells per Rectifier Stack .................. 10
Average (DC) Forward Amperes at 50 C free-air temp ... 5
100 C free-air temp ... 2.5
Maximum Reverse Milliamperes - Dynamic ............... 1.5
- Static ................ 2.0
Typical Cell Shunt Capacitance ..................... .01 uF
An interesting note: " When several RCA CR-series rectifiers
are to be operated in series across a supply voltage of
20,000 volts peak or more, the protection by the integral
voltage-equalizing networks may not be adequate, depending
on the circuit arrangement and the physical layout of the
components. Consequently, additional protection against high
transient voltages may be required in the equipment design."
Hope this helps,
