Replacement of a thyristor or thyristor
module Type 25 - 800 A
•
Loosen and swing out regulator and Interface
assembly
•
Remove bus bars above the thyristors
•
Remove gate leads of the thyristor concerned
•
Unscrew thyristor or thyristor module
•
Before mounting the new thyristor or thyristor
module, coat the side, which is in contact with
the heat sink, with a thin layer of heat
conducting paste.
For units 800 A:
NOTE: for safe and easy mounting of thyristors
on 800 A units we recommend the tool
PN 050.00.00
•
Insert thyristor into box-clamp and put the
package on the centering bolt on the heatsink
•
Fasten the four hexagon bolts by hand until
all slack is taken out and take care that the
clamp housing stays parallel to the heatsink.
•
Tighten each bolt by half a revolution at one
time with hexagonal torque socket spanner 8
mm (10 mm), diagonally.
NOTE: Observe recommended torque!
•
Repeat the procedure until the clamp is held
down firmly to the heatsink on each side.
•
Re-connect gate leads
•
Screw on bus bars.
NOTE: Before replacing a thyristor or thyristor
module the gate and cathode faston
connectors must be checked for
conductivity.
