Description:
Powerex SCR/Diode 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.
POW-R-BLOKTM has been tested and
recognized by the Underwriters
Laboratories.
Features:
Electrically Isolated Heatsinking
DBC Alumina (Al2O3) Insulator
Copper Baseplate
Low Thermal Impedance
for Improved Current Capability
UL Recognized (E78240)
Benefits:
No Additional Insulation
Components Required
Easy Installation
No Clamping Components
Required
Reduce Engineering Time
Applications:
Bridge Circuits
AC & DC Motor Drives
Battery Supplies
Power Supplies
Large IGBT Circuit Front Ends
Lighting Control
Heat & Temperature Control
