Which USSR devices contain parts made of pure palladium?

Explanation to the List of radio components containing precious metals

It is worth noting that this List is far from exhaustive. We try to add new purchased items to the list, which is reflected in our catalog with photos and prices for expensive radio components of Soviet and imported production in the relevant sections of the site.

You can sell valuable radio components of the USSR for radio scrap, new and used, containing precious metals at competitive prices today by contacting our company. We have been cooperating with private individuals for more than 6 years, reliably. The exact cost of Soviet radio components depends on the quantitative content of precious metals in them, the year of manufacture, acceptance conditions (military or civilian acceptance) and the manufacturing plant.

We also purchase modern radio components of imported and domestic production: capacitors, microcircuits, transistors, connectors, relays and other electronic components.

What radio components are rich in palladium?

Nowadays, the cost of palladium is enormous. A gram of palladium costs almost twice as much as gold - 5,900 rubles. Therefore, extracting palladium from radio components is extremely profitable. Moreover, this metal does not dissolve in sulfuric and hydrochloric acids, so it can be obtained from Soviet radio components using acids - quickly and efficiently.

Experts have long noticed the precious metal palladium in radio components of Soviet electronics. This metal was actively used in the production of computers and in the manufacture of televisions; there is also a lot of this extremely expensive metal in special-purpose equipment - measuring instruments, sensors, and military equipment.

Palladium lamellas are present in most samples of Soviet computers. Computers made in the USSR can contain up to ten grams of this valuable metal. It is also worth noting the presence of PP-3 resistors, in which palladium is found in abundance in the contacts. Moreover, as experts point out, resistor contacts are rich in 80 percent palladium.

In standard Soviet TVs “Horizon”, “Rubin”, “KVN”, “Sapphire”, “Electronics” the precious metal palladium was present in small quantities. Palladium was most often deposited on CM capacitors in a very thin layer.

The older the equipment, the richer it is in radio components containing precious metals. One PTU-58 TV contains 120 grams of pure silver and almost 15 grams of gold. Palladium, along with platinum, were actively used as contacts in old Soviet technology, along with silver. Prices for precious metals back then were still completely different than they are now.

Which radio components contain precious metals?

1. Microcircuits are one of the sources of precious metals. They come in different sizes, which in particular determines the amount of precious metal. Additionally, the amount of metal will depend on the model of the microcircuit. Components from the USSR era contain significantly more gold-bearing samples. 2. Capacitors are similar to microcircuits in terms of their source of profit. Often it is the older models that contain gold. 3. Resistors are rarely gold-containing. Only rare models will contain anything other than silver, which is quite cheap to sell. 4. Connectors often contain expensive metals. 1 kg of connectors may contain 15-25 grams of gold. But this is if we are talking about connectors made in the USSR. European samples are “poorer” by an average of 5 times. 5. Transistors also contain a decent amount of precious metal. The most interesting transistor models can contain up to 20 grams of gold per 1000 units of parts.

  • For additional information on these radio components, see the “Connectors” page.

How are precious metals extracted from radio components?

To extract and recycle radio components and devices, it is necessary to separate them by type, each of which requires separate processing conditions. Direct refining can be performed both at home and on an industrial scale. If we are talking about home conditions, then for refining it is necessary to purchase the necessary chemicals, tools, and sometimes equipment in advance. The list of necessary devices will depend on the chosen refining method. Of course, extracting valuable metals from radio components at home is not a profitable business. Moreover, refining and selling precious metals requires a special license, the absence of which may result in administrative and criminal liability. Industrial refining takes place in special plants. Various technologies and methods are used to extract expensive metals. The quality of the output metal also depends on the choice of method. Combining various methods makes it possible to subsequently obtain pure silver, platinum and other metals. There are separate companies that buy radio components. They accept parts from the public, after which they refining them themselves or collaborate with factories.

Best regards, team.

Money from radio components

Many people have a stock of radio components gathering dust somewhere in the garage. Some people don’t even imagine that such technical garbage can bring profit. To do this, you do not need to do anything to repair or design; it is enough to simply hand over the radio components in Moscow to specialized companies for the acceptance of non-ferrous metals.

Radio components are also stored in the warehouses of many industries and factories. They are no longer working and must be disposed of, since the old radio components from the Soviet era are not suitable for new devices. Only special organizations that remove metals from electrical household appliances and send them for recycling can properly dispose of technical waste.

Sell ​​capacitors

If you have a stock of obsolete equipment, but you are not sure that these radio components are valuable, you can find out their cost at the collection point. You can also look in special directories that list devices and components of value. It is much more profitable to hand over radio components than to send them to a landfill. Moreover, they can bring considerable profit.

By selling radio components in Moscow, you can free up space at home and replenish your wallet. Radio components and radio-electronic parts are accepted at reception points in the capital. You can hand over devices containing radio components in any condition and quantity. Special organizations for the acceptance of non-ferrous metals accept radio components from individuals and individuals.
