K2400F23RP

Thyristors - DIACs, SIDACs

K2400F23RP is a thyristor/diode high-power module with a minimum breakover voltage of 200V, optically coupled to a 10A triac. This device is well suited for power applications requiring high power rating. It can be used in a variety of applications such as motor control, solid state relays, appliance control and high-power switching.

Application Field

The most common applications for K2400F23RP include motor control, appliance control, and solid state relays. It is well suited for environments in which a high power rating is required. It can switch high-current loads with a minimum breakover voltage of 200V.

K2400F23RP is particularly useful for motor control applications, as it can operate reliably in the presence of high vibration. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where reliability is paramount. Applications that require rapid switching, such as printer or copy-machine control, may benefit from the use of K2400F23RP.

In addition to motor control and appliance control, K2400F23RP can also be used in solid state relays. It is well suited for high power applications such as heating, undustrial machine control, or other applications involving large loads.

Working Principle

The working principle of K2400F23RP is relatively simple. It consists of a pair of thyristors and an optical coupler. The thyristors are connected in series and are responsible for providing the current necessary to switch the high power load. The optical coupler is responsible for controlling the current, by isolating the thyristors from the control signal and providing the necessary voltage levels to trigger the thyristors.

When a control signal is applied to the optical coupler, it triggers the thyristors in the device. The thyristors, in turn, begin to conduct current and supply the necessary power to drive the load. As the thyristors conduct current, the voltages across them increase, eventually reaching a point at which the voltage drop is sufficient to trigger the thyristors back into the non-conducting state.

At this point, the thyristors stop conducting current and the optical coupler turns off the thyristors. This process is then repeated as long as the control signal is applied to the device. The cycle then repeats itself until the load has been successfully driven.

K2400F23RP is an efficient and reliable way to switch large loads, making it a popular choice in motor control, appliance control, and solid state relay applications.
