KOS – HIGH FREENCY VIOLET RAY APPARATUS

KOS – HIGH FREENCY VIOLET RAY APPARATUS

​

Overview

The KOS Violet Ray is not decorative.
It is not theatrical.
It is engineered.

This is a device built by people who cared deeply about repeatability, stability, and electrical discipline. Everything about it feels intentional — from the control layout to the restrained electrode selection.

KOS units were designed to do exactly what they are told, nothing more and nothing less.

Electrical Character

KOS machines are known for a field that is:

• Dense

• Focused

• Exceptionally stable

There is very little noise in the discharge.
Very little randomness.

The field feels compressed and coherent, with a noticeable sense of electrical “weight” even at moderate settings.

This is classic German high-frequency philosophy:
precision over spectacle.

Dual Regulation System (Reg I / Reg II)

The twin regulation layout is a standout feature.

Rather than a single blended control, KOS separates aspects of regulation to allow:

• Fine-grain control of output behaviour

• Stable tuning across the full range

• Reduced instability at higher settings

This makes the machine highly predictable and easy to dial in — especially valuable for users who understand electrical response rather than chasing raw intensity.

Electrode Geometry & Field Shaping

The electrode set is deliberately restrained and functional:

• Mushroom electrode: Even, broad surface distribution

• Spiral electrode: Oscillatory surface interaction

• Straight rods: Directional and linear field projection

Each electrode alters field density and geometry, not just contact area. This reflects a deep understanding of capacitive coupling and surface plasma behaviour.

Nothing here is decorative.
Everything earns its place.

Handle & Transmission

The ribbed bakelite handpiece is:

• Robust

• Well insulated

• Excellent at transmitting a clean discharge

It reinforces the KOS identity — industrial, dependable, and electrically honest.

Restoration Standard

This KOS unit has undergone a full professional restoration, including:

• Complete electrical overhaul

• All capacitors replaced as standard practice

• Wiring inspected, corrected, and secured

• Output tested for stability and consistency

The original circuit design and behaviour are fully preserved, while reliability and safety are brought up to modern expectations.

This is a true restoration, not cosmetic preservation.

Case & Presentation

The black case with deep violet interior perfectly suits the machine:

• Serious

• Purpose-built

• Unapologetically technical

It feels more like laboratory equipment than a consumer device — and that’s exactly the point.

Why the KOS Matters

KOS units appeal to people who value:

• Control over chaos

• Stability over show

• Engineering over marketing

They don’t shout.
They don’t exaggerate.

They perform.

Final Word

The KOS High Frequency Violet Ray is:

• Disciplined

• Precise

• Electrically authoritative

Fully restored.
Technically honest.
Built for those who understand what they’re working with.

This isn’t a novelty device.
It’s a proper piece of electrical history ⚡
