Thyristors are a type of electronic switch which, once triggered into its “on” state, goes into a locked-on state, regardless of either the current or voltage that triggers the gate. Thyristors are widely used in a variety of applications and are particularly beneficial for higher voltage or current-handling applications. One of the most popular products in this field is the TD600N16KOFHPSA2 from HPS. This module is specifically designed for use in high power switching applications. Let\'s take a closer look at the features and working principle of the TD600N16KOFHPSA2.

Application Field

The TD600N16KOFHPSA2 is a highly efficient and robust thyristor module which is suitable for industrial applications that require extremely reliable power switching. The main benefit of this module is its high-voltage, high-current capacity, up to 600A at 16kV. It is constructed of two thyristor cells, each providing up to 300A of current, giving an impressive total of 600A combined. As such, the TD600N16KOFHPSA2 is ideally suited for applications such as high-power motor control, variable speed drives, AC circuit breakers and DC power supplies.

Due to its compact size, the TD600N16KOFHPSA2 is also suitable for high-density installations, saving space and cost. It also features integral heatsink copper plates which help to quickly dissipate heat, reducing the risk of heating-induced failure. Finally, this module also features an integral safeguard which prevents latched thyristors from switching off too quickly, resulting in over-current tripping or arcing.

Working Principle

At the heart of the TD600N16KOFHPSA2 is a pair of thyristors, connected in parallel. When triggered, each thyristor switches current between its anode and cathode, providing up to 300A of current each. The control gate of each thyristor is connected in series, meaning that both must be triggered in order to allow current to flow.

When current flows between the anode and cathode of the TD600N16KOFHPSA2, the current flow is stepped down to a more manageable level. This is done through a pair of auxiliary thyristors, connected in series and triggered when a certain level of current is reached. This reduces the current flowing through the primary thyristors, preventing them from becoming damaged or overheating.

The TD600N16KOFHPSA2 is also self-protected, with over-current and thermal trip features. The over-current protection limits the current through the primary thyristors when high current is sensed, ensuring that the module does not become excessively hot and fail prematurely. The thermal trip feature forcibly triggers the primary thyristors to switch off should the temperature of the module begin to rise.

Conclusion

The TD600N16KOFHPSA2 from HPS is a robust, reliable and efficient thyristor module, ideal for demanding high-voltage, high-current applications. Its compact design and integrated heatsink enable a high density of installation, while its self-protection features ensure a long and trouble-free life. With its wide range of features and reliable power switching, the TD600N16KOFHPSA2 is an invaluable tool in any industrial context.The specific data is subject to PDF, and the above content is for reference
