Fast Thyristors, Stud Type, Vishay Replacement
Fast Thyristorin stud design are general-purpose thyristors, regulating and converting DC and AC currents up to 330A in circuits with voltages to 1200V (depends on the thyristor type).
Fast Thyristors (Stud Type) ASTS AS ENERGITM are a replacement, analog, alternative for stud version of fast thyristors Vishay Semiconductors.
"Air-cooled heatsinks O series for stud devices", for thyristor cooling are also available to order.
Features: designed for high power industrial and power transmission applications; optimized for low on-state voltage drop; matched Qrr and VT values available for series and / or parallel connections.
Air and water heat sinks are used to cool the thyristors. To provide reliable thermal and electrical contact with the heatsink a tightening torque Md must be observed during assembly. For better heat dissipation of thyristor during assembly, heat conducting paste is used (this is a recommendation and is not a prerequisite for installation).
Features: thyristors are supplied in stud design. The base of the thyristor is the anode, the flexible power lead is the cathode, the flexible wire exiting the base of the power lead is the auxiliary cathode, the flexible wire exiting the case is the control electrode (gate). This thyristors are notable for their ability to be used on moving parts.
Fast thyristors are devices with reduced tq, trr, Qrr values and with a higher value (diT/dt)crit (up to 2500 A/µs) designed to operate at higher frequencies modes (up to 10kHz). The thyristor parameters of VTM, tq, Qrr are interconnected, so a decrease in the value of tq and Qrr leads to an increase in VTM. Fast thyristors are characterized with a very low turn-off time that sets them apart from the standard models. They are used in welding, induction heating and melting, electric transportation, AC drives, UPS, and other systems requiring short turn-on and turn-off times. The thyristors have an industry-standard ceramic sealed housing isolating the functional part and the semiconductor element from mechanical impacts and environment.
Thyristors AS ENERGITM have the following features: low static and dynamic losses, high values of VDRM/VRRM, extensive experience of using the devices in various industries, range of voltages from 100 to 9000 V and amperages from 100 to 15000 A, high resistance to thermal and electric cycling, natural or forced air cooling.
Our company provides a quality guarantee for thyristors of 2 years from the date of purchase. When supplying thyristors, if necessary, we provide technical passport and certificate of conformity.
The final price of fast thyristors in stud design depends on the voltage class, quantity, delivery terms, manufacturer, country of origin and form of payment.

Installation recommendations for power stud mount thyristors:
The reliability of heat transfer and electrical contact between the mating surfaces of the thyristor and the cooler over the entire temperature range is ensured by appropriate torque.
Before assembly you should perform visual inspection (1) contact surfaces for mechanical damages and wipe (2), soaked with alcohol (toluene, gasoline, acetone).
To improve the parameters of heat transfer it is recommended to lubricate (3) a thin layer of silicone thermal conductive paste before the assembly, which is not a mandatory condition for installation.
After installation, the fasteners (nuts and washers) must be additionally secured against corrosion.
Tips and recommendations for power thyristors:
The power thyristors should not be operated for long periods of time at their limit load for all parameters. In this case, the safety factor is determined by the required degree of reliability of the device.
Replace a failed power thyristor with a thyristor that matches the parameters of the one being replaced.
Supercooling must be provided when operating in an environment with an elevated ambient temperature.
Periodic cleaning of power thyristors and coolers to remove dust and contaminants is recommended to ensure proper heat dissipation.
Inductive current dividers (often twisted toroidal wire) should be used to equalize currents between power thyristors connected in parallel. The most popular connection methods are closed circuit, common coil circuit, or power thyristor. The efficiency of current dividers in this case is determined by the cross section of the magnetic wire.
Prevention of voltage unbalance when power thyristors are connected in series is achieved by using shunt resistors connected in parallel with each thyristor. Voltage equalization in transient conditions is provided by connecting capacitors in parallel to each thyristor.
It is strictly forbidden to touch power thyristors under high voltage during operation.
