AC Switch SCR Isolated Module

1330 Amperes RMS / Up to 2400 Volts

PA43__06

TM

Description:

Powerex AC Switch SCR Modules are
designed for use in applications requiring
phase control and isolated packaging. The
modules are isolated for easy mounting with
other components on a common heatsink.

Features:

 Electrically Isolated Heatsinking
 Compression Bonded Elements
 Metal Baseplate
 Low Thermal Impedance

for Improved Current Capability

Benefits:

 No Additional Insulation
Components Required

 Easy Installation
 No Clamping Components

Required
 Reduce Engineering Time

Applications:

 Transfer Switches
 AC Welders
 Motor Soft Starters

Revision Date: 09/28/2009
