Thyristor switch modules

THX


Thanks to the positive experiences gained with the use of this component, TELEGROUP decided to conduct thorough research and development, which led to the total internal production of Thyristor Modules.

This has allowed the company to obtain highly prestigious know-how, complete control over production steps and greater flexibility and competitiveness that drastically reduce the economic gap between insertion to Contactors and insertion to Thyristors.


Why Thyristor modules?

There are applications within Heavy Industry which, due to their operating cycle, tend to vary the load diagram in such a short time (from 1 to 5 seconds) and in some cases to such a high current peak (up to 20 In) that no contactor is able to follow and above all endure operation over time without becoming damaged.

The above conditions therefore require the use of Thyristor Modules for the insertion of Capacitor banks.


Advantages

  • Capacitor bank insertion in times that can be estimated in milliseconds
  • Increased Capacitor life
  • Unlimited number of cycles


Applications

  • Industrial welding machines
  • Robotics
  • Hydraulic presses
  • Automotive systems
