Series L 15-42.5Amp SCR/Diode Modules

Category: Cynergy3 Corp, Electronics, Trigger Devices

The Series L 15-42.5Amp SCR/Diode Modules datasheet provides detailed information about circuit modules that deliver ratings up to 42.5 amps. These modules are specifically designed in a compact, low-profile package to facilitate connections to printed circuit boards (PCBs). They are adaptable to three standard bridge circuits and offer an AC switch version, with all models featuring 2500 Vrms isolation. These components are also UL recognized under the file E72445. A separate mounting clip, identified as part number LMC-1, is available for these modules.

Ratings

Modules within the series cover three different current capacities: 15 amps, 25 amps, and 42.5 amps. The datasheet references schematic diagrams that likely illustrate the circuit variations available within the Series L.

Electrical Specifications

The datasheet specifies a maximum DC output current of 42.5 amps at a case temperature (Tc) of 85°C. Voltage drop ratings are provided at different current peaks, with the highest specified at 22V for a current of 154 amps. The modules are designed to operate over a wide junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, ensuring versatility across different working environments. The critical rate of rise of on-state current (dI/dt) at a junction temperature (Tj) of 125°C is yet another specified metric, with a value of 100 As/μs.

The AC line voltage ratings are specified for different values starting from 120 Vac to 480 Vac, with the corresponding amps rating given. Equivalent circuit options include versions with free-wheeling diodes.

Mechanical Specifications

Important mechanical dimensions (expressed in inches and millimeters) are provided for accurate integration into PCB layouts. Surge currents, fusing capacities, gate triggering currents and voltages, gate power, and thermal resistances are among the other parameters detailed, offering a comprehensive view for design engineers. The isolation voltage is emphasized at 2500 Vrms, which speaks to the safety and reliability of the module in high-voltage applications.

Additional information includes the module’s weight, which is typically 0.2 oz (14.4 g) and the product’s certification under ISO 9001.

Contact Information and Approvals

Contact details are provided for sales and technical support in the USA, Europe (UK), and Asia (Thailand), ensuring accessibility for global customers. The modules have received UL approval, evidenced by the UL E72445 designation.
