Package
320 A
Modules - thyristor, standard
MAGN-A-PAK
This VSK series of MAGN-A-PAK modules uses high voltage
power thyristor/thyristor in doubler circuit configuration.
The semiconductors are electrically isolated from the metal
base, allowing common heatsinks and compact assemblies
to be built. They can be interconnected to form single phase
or three phase bridges or as AC-switches when modules are
connected in anti-parallel mode. These modules are
intended for general purpose applications such as battery
chargers, welders, motor drives, UPS, etc.
