Product Details

5SHY‑55L4500 is ABB high‑current asymmetric press‑pack IGCT module with factory‑integrated gate drive unit,core power device for ACS6000 medium‑voltage converter.

Adopts asymmetric IGCT technology with snubberless turn‑off characteristic;optimized for medium‑frequency operating conditions below 1kHz;receives trigger commands and feeds back device fault status via optical fiber,supports AC/DC dual‑mode gate‑unit power supply. Disc hockey‑puck structure must be assembled with 40kN clamping‑force and matched heat sink. Module damage will cause power‑unit failure and medium‑voltage converter shutdown. Widely used for legacy ACS6000 medium‑voltage drive and power‑quality equipment maintenance.

Note:This is legacy EOL spare component,widely used for high‑power power‑electronic spare‑part replacement.
