The Semikron SKR240/16 is an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) module with the following features and specifications:
Features:
- Reverse Voltages up to 1800 V: This indicates that the module can handle high reverse voltages, making it suitable for applications where voltage reversal occurs.
- Hermetic Metal Case with Glass Insulator: The module is housed in a hermetic metal case with a glass insulator. This construction provides protection against environmental factors and ensures the reliability of the module.
- Cooling via Heatsinks: Cooling of the module is achieved through the use of heatsinks, which help dissipate heat generated during operation.
- Threaded Stud: The module has a threaded stud for mounting purposes. The available stud sizes are ISO M16 x 1.5, M20 x 1.5, or 3/4 – 16 UNF 2A2.
- SKN and SKR Designation: The module is available in both SKN and SKR designations, indicating the anode and cathode connections to the stud, respectively.
