ABB 5SHY35L4510 Integrated Gate-Commutated Thyristor
5SHY35L4510 is an Asymmetric Integrated Gate-Commutated Thyristor (AIGCT) manufactured by ABB. It combines the advantages of asymmetric design and integrated gate-commutated thyristors, and is a high-power switching device used to control high-voltage and large-current circuits, enabling precise, efficient and reliable control of power electronic systems. The relevant introduction is as follows:
Technical Parameters
Voltage parameters: The repetitive peak off-state voltage VDRM is 4500V, which refers to the maximum forward repetitive voltage that the IGCT can withstand in the off-state (with a reverse voltage of more than -2V applied to the gate).
Current parameters: The maximum controllable turn-off current ITGQM is 4000A, which can turn off relatively large currents. The maximum average on-state current IT(AV)M is the sine half-wave current measured under the conditions of case temperature Tc=85℃ and junction temperature Tj=125℃.
Other parameters: The maximum rate of rise of on-state current diT/dtcr is 1000A/μs, with the test conditions being f=0~500Hz, Tj=125℃, IT=4000A, and VD=2800V. The turn-off energy Eoff is 19.5~22J, and the turn-off delay tdoff=7μs.
